Full description

This is a experience from Hoi An, built around Cẩm Kim, Lò Mì Quân Rice Paper & Noodles and V88G+33G. It is run by Local Buddy Tours Vietnam, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

A private day with a driver-guide is the way to see the most of a Japanese city or region in one day, because it removes the transfers between sights that eat a third of the day on public transport. Prices are usually per vehicle for up to a set number of guests rather than per person, and cover the car, fuel, tolls and the guide; entrance fees and lunch are paid as you go unless the listing says otherwise. Japanese guides are licensed for the work and typically punctual to the minute. Give the operator your priorities, and expect them to reorder the day around opening hours and crowds; that is what you are paying for.

The price covers Good quality bike and helmet, local tour guide, All taxes, Donations at local homes on tour and Bottled water during the tour. It does not cover Other drinks and Tip is optional but appreciated, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Hotel pickup in Hoi An. Local Buddy Tours Vietnam confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Local Buddy Tours Vietnam before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Trang was a great guide, showing us around her local village. We had a great time chatting about life and learning about the traditional practices around the village.

We hadden een prachtige voormiddag. Onze gids wist ons heel veel te vertellen over de lokale bevolking. We kregen de tijd om vragen te stellen en zelf iets uit te proberen. Supervriendelijke mensen. Een aanrader om de drukte van de stad even te ontlopen.

Booked the tour without lunch starting in the morning. Great bike tour around Hoi An. Multiple stops with interesting activities. Make rice paper, weave mats, carve wood, make incense. Boat ride back. Most stops also offered interesting free snacks and drinks and an opportunity to buy souvenirs. There was never any pressure to buy. Our guide was really helpful and cycling is a great way to experience the Vietnamese countryside. The weather was hot but we got plenty of water and the speed was moderate. Our 9 year old could keep up easily.

We had such an enjoyable time cycling in the countryside with our lovely guide Lan. It was a leisurely ride with stops to the villagers who wove mats from reeds, made rice paper and wooden goods. The tour was well paced and we even got to enjoy the local coffee on a break. The boat ride back to town was the perfect ending to a well designed tour.

We had an amazing day with Trang – one of the highlights of our trip! We got to make rice paper and rice noodles, saw how traditional mats are woven (and even helped a little!), and learned about wood carving. The tour was very diverse, hands-on, and so interesting. Cycling through the incredible countryside was absolutely fantastic and made the experience even more special. Trang is incredibly knowledgeable, warm, and fun – she made the whole day unforgettable. We discovered a side of Vietnam we would never have seen otherwise. Highly recommended – don’t miss this experience! Thank you again

Everything was amazing! Our guide Kim Phuong and her photographer were the best. We really got an authentic impression of the true Vietnamese culture and cuisine. A special thanks to the expertise of our guide. Anyone who wants to do the tour should ask for her!

The tour started bicycling through traffic in the streets. After almost getting hit 2 times, I explained my discomfort & fear & asked to not continue. My guide said ok. My friends continued & told me the rest of tour was calm, easy and not in traffic I wish my guide had explained it, so I could have continued on. It was a waste for me sadly.

Die Begleiterin TRUNG hat uns sehr freundlich empfangen, uns vorab viel erklört und an den unterschiedlichen Stationen mit Übersetzungen den Austausch mit den Einheimischen ermöglicht. Man darf alles ausprobieren und lernt während der leichten Tour viel.

The Hoi An old town ticket (a small fee that covers five heritage houses or halls) is included when the listing says so; otherwise it is bought at the entrance and the guide explains which houses to use it on. The old town is closed to motorbikes for most of the day, and My Son is best at opening time before the tour buses.
