The trend of returning to nature and experiencing agricultural life is increasingly attracting tourists thanks to its peaceful nature and extremely reasonable costs. In the expanded Khanh Hoa region, especially the area bordering Ninh Thuan, ecological farmstay models and orchards growing grapes, apples, and sheep are opening up incredibly fresh exploration spaces for those who want a change of pace after tiring days at the beach.
Enjoy orchard services with 0-cost entry
The unique aspect of vineyards in the Phan Rang area or along the coastal road of Vinh Hy is that most garden owners do not charge an entrance fee to visitors. You are free to walk under the grape trellises heavy with fruit, take lush green check-in photos, and enjoy glasses of cool grape juice offered by the owner. This is a very civilized model for stimulating tourism.
To keep the trip budget-friendly yet full of good will, instead of paying an entrance fee, support the orchard owner by buying some fresh grapes just cut from the vine, a bottle of pure grape honey, or dried apple jam products. The price at the orchard is always the original price, much cheaper than when you buy at tourist rest stops along the highway, while ensuring a 100% authentic origin.
Rules of conduct to avoid ruining the experience
Agritourism requires maximum respect for the results of the farmers' labor. Always ask the owner for permission before entering to take photos. Absolutely do not pick fruits or flowers without the owner's consent. If you are visiting sheep farms or pastures (such as An Hoa sheep field), move gently, do not startle the livestock, and be mindful of keeping the common area clean. If you intend to stay overnight at budget-friendly farmstays, choose service packages that include home-cooked meals made from self-sufficient produce to optimize costs.
Quick checklist
-
Choose legitimate orchards run by local people to get free entry.
-
Support the owner by buying produce directly from the vine instead of paying tips.
-
Always ask in advance and follow the orchard's guidelines when visiting and taking photos.
-
Bring sneakers or flat sandals, as paths in farms and orchards are usually sandy soil.
-
Consider farmstay accommodation packages that include meals to save on living costs.
