What a fantastic insight into the culture and beliefs of the Vietnamese people. We wandered through the backstreets of Hoi An and visited so many interesting sites that I would never have found on my own. My guide Kun spoke excellent English and shared so many fascinating stories throughout the evening. It was an easy stroll, and because I was the only person on the tour, it felt more like exploring the streets with a close friend. This tour is not about spooky ghost stories, but rather the cultural significance, history, and the way life in Hoi An functions both past and present. Thank you so

Really fascinating way to learn about parts of Vietnamese culture that you don't often hear about: death, religion and spirituality and the afterlife. Vy was an excellent guide and we saw some very cool parts of Hoi An that we never would have found by ourselves. Highly recommend.

What a fabulous trip! Our guide, Sanh, was amazing, very friendly and welcoming, and provided a good knowledge of information about different spiritual beliefs and custom of the Vietnamese which was really interesting. He was easy to communicate with and we had some good laughs along the way, and a big hug from him at the end, and a selfie. If we had more time in Hoi An, we would happily do more tours wuth Sanh.

I loved it! I was expecting more of a supernatural ghost tour but it was more about spirituality in Vietnamese culture, traditions and rituals surrounding death, and history. It was SO interesting. Nhat was an amazing guide. He had such a calm energy and gentle nature, and was so kind. He held so much knowledge, he answered everyone’s questions in depth and we had such engaging conversations together. I learnt so much more than I expected to. It was great being shown places and hearing stories you’d otherwise have no idea about. If you enjoy history, culture or just want something a bit differ

Amazing visit of Hoi An with our guide Sanh. We delve deep in the hidden secrets of this town and explored traditions and beliefs in an intimate way. Sanh also have a real storyteller talent. Make yourself a favour and explore the world of the unseen, who knows, it might become useful.

My husband and I absolutely loved our tour with Kun! From the moment we met her, she radiated warmth, energy, and a genuine love for sharing her city. What really stood out was the liveliness and personality she brought to the experience – she kept us engaged with fascinating historical facts, sprinkled in her own personal anecdotes, and always had thoughtful answers to our questions. Kun has a real gift for storytelling. She made history come alive in a way that was both informative and entertaining, and her sense of humor kept us smiling the whole time. Beyond her knowledge, she is truly one

Our guide Sinh made this fascinating and unusual tour, exceptional! He spoke perfect English and kept us thoroughly engaged for nearly 2 hours, bringing the mysterious and darker side of Hoi An to our ears and senses, as we walked in shadowy alleys. I highly recommend this tour, thank you.

I had a great time on my tour, Vy was an excellent guide with great knowledge and was able to answer any questions I had. It was an interesting tour as it is slightly different to the kind of thing you may be used to. It was very interesting to get an insight to the Vietnamese people’s relationships with death and the traditions they carry. Would recommend to anybody who is interested to have more of an insight to Vietnamese culture rather than your average “touristy” tours!
