Example of a stay with César
Day 1: (L, D)
We’ll take you in a canoe at the meeting point. Visit of the «local market».
Phuong your English-speaking guide and cousin Hao will be your private guides for the day. To this day no traveler comes in this colorful, cheerful and very lively market. Strolling through the streets overloaded with goods, observing the surprise of the population is fun.
Lunch on the spot.
Then departure at our friend making woven bamboo baskets on the river. Real valuable know-how.
We will continue on our way to a charcoal company on the banks of the river. Families live in the workplace. Explanations and surprising meetings!
Then go to our house through the mangroves.
Dinner and evening with family. Children will make new friends in the tropics. Seasonal fruits.
Dau 2: (B, L, D)
After breakfast, departure for a morning discovery of the scooter countryside as a passenger. The rice miller. This machine straight out of a Tim Burton movie will show you what happens upstream before this little grain of rice ends up on your plate.
Lunch on the way.
Stop at a granny who makes brooms out of coconut rods, entirely by hand… Then visit Dèp our friend who makes incense sticks across the river.
Back home through the rice fields.
Dinner and evening with family. We will teach you if you want to play Tien Len, a very popular card game here and/or kaaraooooke... Fun evening guaranteed!
Day 3: (B, L)
Breakfast then walk along the river. Then head to the school. As in the past… It smells good the dust inside the books with the cornered pages and the fine sand of the playground returned by these restless little feet propels us a few years back. A Vietnamese version of Tom Sawyer’s school. What an emotion to see the meeting of children from two different countries.
Visit a blacksmith by the river. Knives, sickles, machetes have no secrets for him.
Lunch on the way or at home.
Depending on your travel requirements, we will walk in our fruit garden behind the house and/or initiation to the manufacture of coconut massage oil.
