Hoi An and Basket Boat Half Day Tour - Booked the tour directly with the agency. The tour started at 3 with a pick up from the resort. The van was neat (was a private tour for 8 people) and on time. Special mention must be made for the tour guide, Phuc, who was super helpful and even baby sat a small child! Hoi An at night is a sight to behold. All in all, a good half day trip if you are in Da Nang
