Traveler reviews
Superb guide
Tuân(aka Tony) was a very pleasant, cheerful and knowledgeable guide. In the end the tour lasted nearly 5 hours and included a half hour show in an old house in the old town - excellent musicians & dancers, & free bingo!! We had an excellent river trip down to the mangroves and water coconut trees. We took in three Chinese temples from different cantons of China, a ceramic and herbal medicine museum and all in all it was excellent if a little bit tiring.!!
knowledgeable and kind guide
our guide was knowledgeable, kind and considerate. walking the old town is a unique and beautiful experience
5 Stars! Excellent.
What a wonderful tour. Our guide Trieu Nyugen was so knowledgeable and the town is a great place to explore. We would not have discovered a fraction of the history or understood the significance of certain places, carvings or monuments without our excellent guide who was so personable and fun to be with. Thank you!
Very good tour
We have a great time in Hoi An Ancient Town. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and patient as we have 2 elderly with us. Enjoy the tour especially the show.
Brilliant half day bike tour
Great half day tour around Hoi An, with a really knowledgeable guide (Trieu). As the weather had been a monsoon downpour the day before, our guide swapped us into a bike tour (using hotel bikes) rather than what would have been a walking/paddling tour.
