We loved it! You should definately spend those few hours and explore this!
I had absolutely no idea how silk is produced before and on this tour we not only had a possibillity to see each step of it (from baby worms to final fabric), but we were able to try to do everything by ourselves step by step. Wonderful experience, very interesting and informative - thank you!
And a nice english speaking guide as well

We were picked up from the hotel, given a welcome drink of mulberry juice and then we met our tour guide. The tour guide Thu was so friendly and informative. We were able to feed the silk worms, use the looms and see what is entailed in the silk industry. Originally my husband thought the tour would just be a sales tour however we both found it to be one of the best tours we've done in Vietnam. Very insightful and we would highly recommend. There is an option at the end of the tour to look around the shop but there is no obligation to buy if you don't wish to. After the tour, we were given a small meal and transported back to our hotel. Thu, our guide was fantastic at her job and made our day special.
