From basket boats in the coconut village
to Hoi An's lantern-lit evening

After pickup from your hotel in central Da Nang or Hoi An, you travel about 45 minutes by van to Cam Thanh Eco Coconut Village, where the tour begins.

Ride a basket boat in Cam Thanh Coconut Village

Cam Thanh Coconut Village is a quiet countryside area known for its lush coconut forest and traditional fishing culture. Glide along waterways lined with nipa palms in a traditional Vietnamese bamboo basket boat, and get a glimpse of local fishermen's daily life through activities such as basket boat paddling and traditional fishing. You stay here for about 1 hour.

Walk through Hoi An Ancient Town with your guide

Continue to Hoi An Ancient Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its well-preserved architecture and multicultural history. The walking tour starts at the Fujian (Phuc Kien) Assembly Hall, famous for its grand gate and dragon sculptures, or the Cantonese Assembly Hall, followed by the Museum of Trade Ceramics, which shows Hoi An's role as an international trading port from the 15th to the 19th century.

Explore one of Hoi An's traditional houses, such as Tan Ky Old House or Phung Hung Old House, where merchant families lived for generations and traded with foreign visitors, and stop briefly at the Japanese Covered Bridge, Hoi An's icon built over 400 years ago. Stroll through narrow lanes, handicraft shops and galleries while your guide tells you about Hoi An's history and culture.

Enjoy free time at the night market and a Hoai River boat ride

After the guided tour, use your free time to explore Hoi An Night Market, full of colorful lanterns, street food and souvenir stalls. Then take a boat ride along the Hoai River, release a flower lantern to make a wish, and finish the tour with a dinner of Hoi An specialties.
