From Da Nang: Hoi An Nighttime Heritage Tour with Lantern Boat and Dinner

Leave Da Nang and explore
Hoi An by lantern light

Travel about 50 minutes by car from your hotel in central Da Nang to Hoi An Ancient Town. With an English-speaking guide, visit the Japanese Covered Bridge, a museum and an old house, then enjoy a Bai Choi performance, dinner, a lantern boat ride and the night market before returning to your hotel in Da Nang. The whole tour takes about 4.5 hours.

Discover Hoi An's history at the bridge and old houses

Start at the Japanese Covered Bridge, Hoi An's best-known landmark. Stroll through narrow lantern-lit lanes, visit the Museum of Sa Huynh Culture and the traditional Tan Ky Old House, and hear about their architecture and history from your guide.

Watch Bai Choi by the Hoai River

On the banks of the Hoai River, watch Bai Choi, a traditional Vietnamese folk performance inscribed as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage. Combining music, poetry and acting, it offers a close look at the performing arts of central Vietnam.

Release a lantern after dinner and stroll the night market

After about an hour of dinner at a local restaurant, take a 15-minute boat ride on the Hoai River. Light a candle lantern yourself, make a wish and release it on the river. Finally, browse the Hoi An night market, full of central Vietnamese souvenirs, before heading back to Da Nang.
