Traveler Reviews
The host is very knowledgeable and friendly and the driver is careful. The count boats were really good fun and Hoi An .. Well it's Hoi An and you must see it. The only problem we had was that my wife asked for a vegetarian dinner and was served an omelette with shrimps inside it .. More a problem with the restaurant rather than the tour.
It was a wonderful afternoon. Our tour Duyen Anh was knowledgeable about the history of Hoi An. She was very enthusiastic and we enjoyed our day in Hoi An and the Basket Boat tour very much! I would recommend this to anyone!
It was a rainy day but we still made it work and had so much fun. Ms. Chau was a great guide and very patient with us. She made sure to give us good recommendations for coffee and food and gave us enough time to explore the ancient town. I would recommend this trip to anyone looking to just see the town and get on the coconut ride but not for anyone who wants to spend significant time there. I felt the time we had there was good enough for us.
Started off in marble mountains for some culture and history. Anh our guide explained all of the different aspects of the mountains and religious history. Then on to coconut boats surreal but definitely worth the trip. On to Hoi an and the different aspects. Suddenly the rain came down and to say washed out was an understatement. Would recommend to anyone even the rain
great tour with a very helpful and knowledgeable guide.
What a fun day! Everything about this experience was excellent and the cherry on top was our guide Sky. He was beyond kind, very funny, and knowledgeable. My face hurt from laughing during the basket boat ride and Hoi An is absolutely adorable. It was nice to have a mix of guided/organized time and free time to explore.
it was amazing. the tour guide was very helpful and gave us lots of information about the city
It was great and the lady that was guiding us was super kind and funny. We loved hoi an and the time was simply not enough to explore it fully. Super fun and pretty trip- i recommend jt
Enjoyed all of the trip, could do with a little more extra free time in Hoi An, but managed to have ample time for each activity. Lovely and helpful tour guide Anh. Great afternoon/evening out.
The trip was well organised by the energetic and friendly Miss Banana, after touring the Coconut Forest in the basket boats we headed to Hoi An to tour the old town and watched the lantern boats spectacle as the sun set. We then enjoyed a varied Thai meal - a great packed tour, great photo opportunities too 👍
It was great, Miss Banana (our tourguide) was fun and cheerful and super energetic. She helped us by telling the realistic prices of tickets and souvenirs so we don’t get scammed. The transfer arrived in time, the basket boat tour was amazing. Hoi An was also very beautiful with all the lanterns and lights. The time flew in that town and I could have spent 2-2.5 hours of freetime there easily 1.5 hours wasn’t enough. I would recommend it though to anyone :))
Excellent guide and tour!
