Amazing experience! - From start to finish, my husband and I had an amazing experience!
The boat tour was a lot of fun, and our guide, Sam, brought an uplifting and positive energy to the trip. The views were breathtaking, and he even took some fantastic photos for us! We really enjoyed catching crabs, and Sam’s sharp eye made it easy to spot them hidden in the water.
Tram, the operator, was warm and welcoming, greeting us with refreshments and fruits after the boat ride, which was a lovely touch.
Overall, it was a great experience, and we highly recommend it!

Amazing! - Amazing time during this basket boat ride.
We were picked up and dropped from our hotel.
Tram who was the tour operator was very attentive and organized. She was very welcoming and very nice to talk to!
Our boat man who's name was Sam/Same was also very attentive and very fun! Always willing to take photos of us without us needing to ask.
Would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to do the basket boat ride + crab fishing when you're in town!

A memorable local experience - We had an amazing time with the coconut basket boat ride experience! The boat rider entertained us throughout the whole ride. We managed to catch a tiny crab and watched the coconut bowl show. The scenery is simple gorgeous! After the boat ride, we had our lunch where the food is super delicious !! We highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Hoi An. The host and her husband is so friendly and accommodating. We hope to back again!

Great fun with great people - Highly recommended small personal authentic tour. It was just the 2 of us. Booked on the day and picked up within an hour. Our host Tram kindly invited us into her house and shared with us part of her culture. We then joined Sam on his basket boat and went for a leisurely, funny, dancie, slow, fast paddle. Catching fish and crabs. We even when for a quick spin! Then back to Tram’s place. Some lovely coconut water and plenty of talking about food! We loved it and had a great time. Tram arranged for the driver to drop us back at the best Banh Mi in Hoi An.

Great fun BUT BUY YOUR TICKETS in advance - We had a taxi driver take us and paid when we got there and got ripped off!
It cost 900000dong for 2 and then she charged us 100000 for 2 drinks!
Buy your tickets here much cheaper and drink included!
The boat man was super we had a go at rowing the boat which was very difficult
We also went further into the forest as on a private tour
The dancing in the boats was amazing
It is very busy and colourful
The trip was great just don’t get ripped off!
