Learn how local people make sticky-rice wine, visit a countryside market alive with colors, and share a home-cooked lunch prepared from fresh regional ingredients. Cruise by private boat through coconut-lined waterways, row a sampan under leafy palms, and feel the peaceful rhythm of rural life. Every stop supports local families and promotes community-based tourism — making your visit meaningful for both travelers and hosts.
