Our guide Chu was very experienced and knowledgable. Not only was she passionate about sharing historic facts of Danang & Hoi An and key highlights of the trip, she was also very attentive to help us take pictures and ensured we had the best angles. She made the tour very pleasant and we deeply appreciate that!

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Hotel pickup in Hoi An. Dacotours confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in. The collection window is usually a little wider than a fixed minute, because the driver is working a route around several hotels.
The price does not cover personal expenses, elevator ticket at marble mountains, tip for tour guide, boat rider and driver and surcharge for pickups from outside the city center of da nang. (we will notify you via whatsapp/email). Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
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.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.
