Amazing. Hoi An is beautiful at night. Our guide Emily was great. The best food we have had on any tour in Vietnam. If you have limited time you must do this tour. Releasing the lanterns is novel. It was the best tour we have done. Hoi An is absolutely stunning at night.

This trip was absolutely amazing. Our tour guide was Abbey and she was simply lovely. She was very cheerful and smiling and if you have the chance to ask for I highly recommend it. She thought us so much about the history and the culture

La guida è stata eccellente e ci ha accompagnato tra le tante attività proposte con professionalità e ci ha fatto anche una bella sorpresa facendoci conoscere il bingo game. Attività assolutamente consigliata per chi visita da Nang.

Wir hatten eine sehr nette Reiseleiterin, Emily. Die 15-minütige Bootsfahrt mit der Laterne war ein schönes Erlebnis. Das Essen im Restaurant war sehr gut. Danach hatten wir circa 1 Stunde Zeit, um die Geschäfte und den Nachtmarkt zu erkunden. Obwohl die Stadt mit Touristen überfüllt ist, war es ein gelungener 4,5 Stunden Ausflug in das nächtliche Hoi An.

Emily war ein toller Guide und hatte viel über Geschichte und Stadt zu erzählen. Emily war sehr sympathisch und auch eine tolle Begleitung die viele tolle Bilder für mich gemachr hat. Das Essen war sehr lecker und der Platz hatte eine tolle Aussicht auf die Szenerie des Flusses und der Stadt. Das Ambiente war fantastisch. Spaziergang und Bootsfahrt durch die Stadt mit den tollen Laternen war ein malerisches Erlebnis.
