What an interesting experience~ In addition to the cruise, there are also programs such as taking photos, playing with fish nets, and singing. The boatman was very enthusiastic, so I gave him a tip. If you have time when you come to Hoi An, you can give it a try.

This is a must try activity in Hoi An! The guide is very patient and knowledgable. He also toured us in the old village. It was indeed a memorable for me and my mother. They really made sure that the activity is safe for my mother to try. It was really good knowing and experiencing the culture with the locals. They are the kindest and very accommodating people! This booking is very hassle free as it already includes the transportation, the basket boat, lantern experience and a bit of a tour! We really had fun! thank you so much for the experience!

The tour to My Son was an unforgettable experience! The impressive temple ruins in the midst of lush nature offer a fascinating mix of history and beauty. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and brought the culture and history of the Cham civilization to life. An absolute highlight of our trip that I can recommend to everyone! Here are some details about the organization: We were contacted the day before and informed of the exact pick-up time. We were picked up on time and were given some historical information on the way. The early morning tour is highly recommended, we were practically the only visitors. It wasn't too hot either.
