We’ll visit a fishing village that is over 100 years old. Then, we’ll continue exploring the serene country roads to observe the local life. We’ll cycle through a water coconut village spanning more than 7 hectares, where you’ll hear stories related to the Vietnam War and the history of many people.

Informative and engaging trip - Excellent guide with a lot of fun and intriguing facts. We first went to the coconut river and when we were on our way there, we did multiple short stops to explain a little more about the culture in Hoi An. Afterwards, we headed to the farm where I got to see, touch and smell different types of plants and greens. Our last stop ended at a family restaurant where the food was simple yet delicious.

Fantastic Hội An experience - We had the most wonderful afternoon exploring Hội An with Hai. He is so easy to talk to and as a result you learn a lot more about Hội An beyond the usual touristy facts. His passion for his home town is evident. If you are looking to explore with a local who makes you feel at ease and at home, meet Hai, you won’t be disappointed. Thank you Hai!

Lovely tour exploring Hoi An with a friendly guide - Had a lovely afternoon exploring outside of Hoi An city centre. The tour included a basket boat tour and a visit to a local ecological farm where we were welcomed by the family to take part in a traditional cooking workshop. We learned to make the Vietnamese pancakes that were served afterwards with some additional dishes. The tourguide that joined us was very knowledgeable, knew the answers to our questions and allowed us enough time at each of the stops. He was very friendly, well-spoken in english and provided us with additional tips for a Tailor to get handmade clothing.
Overall, would absolutely recommend a tour like this one if you are visiting Hoi An.

Highly recommended - Mr Hai is a super nice guide with a lot of knowledge. That way, we learned a lot about Vietnam while cycling through beautiful places. He is very patient, funny, and polite. He makes it a special day with lovely food (also for vegetarians). He also ensures to make the rest of the trip in Hội An worth it with tips about the best Banh Mi and tailor places. Would highly recommend it!
