About

Happy Cooking Tour is an experiential travel brand based in Hoi An, founded with the mission of creating meaningful journeys where food, culture, and nature come together to create lasting memories. Hoi An – a UNESCO World Heritage site – is not only famous for its ancient streets and unique architecture but is also home to a rich culinary heritage and the everyday stories of its warm-hearted people.

Inspired by the idea that “food is the bridge to culture”, Happy Cooking Tour has developed unique experiential travel programs that go beyond sightseeing. Guests can actively participate in daily activities such as visiting local markets to handpick fresh ingredients, learning how to cook Hoi An’s traditional dishes, riding basket boats through the Bay Mau Coconut Forest, or simply sharing conversations with locals about their lives. Together, these experiences paint a vivid picture of the land and its people.

At Happy Cooking Tour, we believe a journey becomes truly memorable when travelers can live like a “local of Hoi An” in every moment. That is why we continuously strive to design experiences that are authentic, safe, and enriching—allowing every guest to discover joy, connection, and appreciation for local culture.
