What to Do in Hoi An Duck Stop as a Tourist?

Here are activities in Hoi An Duck Stop:

– Hand-feeding the flock: The adventure begins in a dedicated pen where over a hundred ducks roam freely. You are handed a bowl of grain, and the birds immediately recognize it, gathering around with anticipation. You can sit low to the ground and offer food directly from your open palms. The sensation of dozens of smooth, blunt beaks rapidly tapping against your hands to scoop up the seeds is surprisingly gentle, giving you a chance to see the birds’ distinct personalities up close.

The ducks have different ages and sizes. Parents can choose a proper ducks for their children for an interaction.

No time limit for duck feeding. It means that your kids will feed and interact with ducks until get bored. Come to the ticket counter near the entrance to buy more food for the ducks when you need.

When you pay the entrance fee, a bucket of food is included. One of friendly staffs will show you all activities and of course, take fun and memorable pictures then. Before seeing the ducks, it’s possible to see lockers to keep your luggage, flip flops to wear in case you wear shoes. After the duck tour, use free fresh water to wash your hands.

– Marching as the “duck leader”: This activity transforms you into a temporary herder. A guide hands you a rattling container of feed and teaches you the calling signal. As you shake the bucket and call out, the entire flock locks onto you like a single organism. The moment you start moving, a massive, noisy wave of waddling ducks chases you across the enclosure. It is a fast-paced, highly energetic game of follow-the-leader that ends when you scatter the prize and watch the chaotic scramble.

– The “duck massage”: This is the farm’s most famous, lighthearted activity. You take a seat on a wooden bench, kick off your shoes, and a guide places a pile of grain directly on top of your bare feet or between your toes. Within seconds, a dense cluster of ducks swarms your feet, pecking furiously to clear away every last grain. The rapid, rhythmic tapping of their flat bills creates an intensely ticklish, vibrating sensation that makes it nearly impossible to sit still without bursting into laughter.

– Capturing the moment with ducks: The staff treats photography like an art form, knowing exactly how to angle your phone to catch the most chaotic and amusing moments. The courtyard features rustic wooden backdrops with tongue-in-cheek slogans painted on them. The signature shot involves standing proudly in front of these signs while the flock swarms around your ankles, making you look like an eccentric commander presiding over a very enthusiastic, feathered army.

– Go on the swing near the farm’s gate.

Also, Duck Stop has its own coffee making class. In which, visitors will learn how to make 5 different Vietnamese coffee types and then try them. The price starts from 350.000 VND/person.
