Itinerary
Experience life in the Vietnamese countryside on a guided trip that includes traditional fishing, a basket boat ride through water coconut trees, a tour of Hoi An ancient town, shopping at the lantern-lit night market, and transfers from Da Nang or nearby areas. After a hotel pickup, start your adventure at Cam Thanh Coconut Village. Ride a bamboo basket boat through the tranquil coconut palm waterways. Gain cultural insight into the local way of life in central Vietnam. Take part in some hands-on activities such as traditional fishing.
Next, head to Hoi An old town. Visit the Phuc Kien Chinese Assembly Hall, Phung Hung Ancient House or Tan Ky Ancient House that has withstood 200 years of weather and war. Learn about the prosperous merchants who used to live in these homes, trading with buyers from all around the world. Then, enter the Museum of Folklore to witness a display of artifacts depicting ancient local daily life over 2 floors of a 150-year-old Chinese merchant house. Watch live demonstrations illustrating the values of Hoi An’s folk art. Stop at the Japanese Bridge that was constructed more than 400 years ago to connect the Japanese community with the Chinese who lived on the other side of the water. Admire the carvings and paintings inside the bridge, and learn about their symbolic and cultural significance. Next, visit some of Hoi An’s well-known handicraft shops and artwork galleries. Then, it’s time to recharge your batteries with a dinner with local specialty food.
Once the sun sets, watch the city light up with lanterns. Take an evening boat ride on the Hoai River. Release a flower lantern to pray for good luck. Finally, spend some time at the night market soaking in the sights and smells of the bustling old town.

BEST TOUR EXPERIENCE compared to other 7 ive done in vietnam.
The tour guide was very good and informative a good comedian too 😅. He made us laugh and we had an amazing amazing time. Please ignore the 2 couples who kept us waiting every now and then. Our tour gude was great and very punctual everything was smooth.
Very good
Amazing day. I would definitely recommend to others visiting Da Nang or other regions of vietnam. I think its a good trip for families and casual outings or perhaps if you just want to do some sightseeing in vietnam. I liked the lights and traditional patterns everywhere. In total we spent about 5 or 6 hours. It was cheaper than other tours. Thuong was such a good guide, he made sure everyone was together before continuing to the next stop and shared lots of useful information. The number of people made it quite crowded but thats to be expected from a market/ tourist attraction.
