A must have experience in Hoi An
Published on Sep, 2024
Having an opportunity to see and experience the silk making process from picking the mulberry leaves to feed the baby silkworms to weaving the silk threads and then forming the threads into fabrics was very interesting and enjoyable. Our guide was wonderful, patient and happy for us to take as much time as we wanted to experience every step made the trip even better.
We have a whole new appreciation of the expertise that goes into creating these beautiful and intricate fabrics.,
Lovely and educational morning
Published on Feb, 2024
We loved this, our tourguide Thu was excellent and educating and we enjoyed the hands on expirience from picking mulberry leaves for feeding to weaving silk and the lunch was fine.
Unusual but fun trip
Published on Feb, 2024
My wife and I visited the Silk Village on Hoi An to see and have a go at some of the processes that go into making silk. I wasn't sure that I would enjoy it but I did immensely, though I am not sure I will get a job weaving anytime soon, the guides and ladies demonstrating were very patient and tried not to laugh at my efforts too much. There is also a shop which sells quality items at what seems to me to be fair prices and you can be confident that what you are buying is genuine. I would highly recommend, it is good fun and something slightly different to do on your trip.

This is a participatory tour. You get to learn about the entire silk creation and weaving process, and feed silk worms, spin some silk from the cocoons, run the 2 different looms, and enjoy a lovely small bite at the resort restaurant. The staff are articulate and knowledgeable, and the pace was relaxed. No pressure to buy goods in the silk store, but there are many beautiful pieces and I don’t regret the scarf I bought!
