Unforgettable Evening of Hoi An’s Ghostly Legends with an Enthusiastic Guide - My experience with the Hoi An Ghosts & Death Mystery Unveiled tour was truly memorable, thanks to our guide, Kun, who made the evening fascinating and engaging. Her enthusiasm brought the mysteries of Hoi An’s death practices and ghostly legends to life. She shared not only detailed historical and cultural insights but also her own personal anecdotes, which added an intimate and authentic touch to the experience. Kun’s storytelling had a captivating quality that made the tour both informative and thrilling, especially as we learned about local beliefs on wandering spirits and the rituals associated with them. She made sure everyone was comfortable and encouraged us to ask questions, creating a warm and welcoming environment. I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in the deeper cultural traditions and eerie folklore of Hoi An. It was a unique way to understand the city beyond its beautiful streets and lanterns. Thank you, Kun, for such an unforgettable journey into Hoi An’s mysteries!

Learnt a lot about rituals and beliefs in Hoi An and across Vietnam and Kun was brilliant - full of information and really warm and funny.

Great tour! - We met Kun outside the Starbucks, the evening was perfect for the walk and the stories. Kun is very knowledgeable and articulate, and obviously loves Hoi An and it's history. We learned so much and saw so many parts of the Old Town. Highly recommend this tour and Kun in particular.

Thank you vinh - Vinh you were amazing & made us feel so welcome in your beautiful Hoi An Town. You were the perfect guide. It was great to hear about your superstitions. It would have been great to hear more about the history of hoi an and the stories that come with that history i.e who were the big trading partners, what were the gruesome stories, was there anything mysterious around that time.
