Coconut River Boat Trip - Just back from a great trip! Absolutely beautiful countryside/river views all involved are wonderful. Especially our Captain! We had a go at rowing, fishing for crabs, singing and we were even made 'Cricket rings' This is a must do little trip for any traveller, young or old.

Experience with contrast - Great fun! From the welcome we received to our amazing (and hilarious) boat drivers this tour was well above what we expected. What took a little to get our heads around was the contrast between the beautiful coconut plantations and the masses of tourists bobbing in the water with gangnam style blasting out down the river. It was certainly an experience.

Basket Boat Fun - Greeted with a welcome drink at this little family owned service. Had an absolute blast on the basket boat ride our guide was hilarious…. We stopped for photo so prepare if you want to buy … only d70,000 nicely printed and presented in a folder… well worth getting…. This is a must short tour for anyone visiting Hoi An… especially if you want to get away from big bus tours… picked up and dropped off from our hotel. Ended the tour with a coffee from the families coffee shop…

Fun times - Loved our guide the owner. Growing his business through learning English is an inspiring story. Picked up on time from our hotel, invited into his home with a drink on arrival, ride was excellent and fun , small family business rather than large tourist chaos. Highly recommend

Transport not good - Tour got off to a bad start when company sent a car that stank of cigarettes and our whole family ended up smelling of said tobacco as they couldn’t change the car Coconut boatswere ok but pretty basic. I keep promising myself I won’t use Viator again but I was I did and once again I was disappointed.Betreexto do your homework and book locally rather than using these 3rd party sites
