On this tour you cover 5 main places of interest. They are topical and nice. The tour usually is done in about 2 hrs. max. You are then free to walk around the market on your own and explore the place. We didn’t buy anything here as we were not keen on getting any clothes stitched for us. However, for those who want new clothes to be stitched, this is the best place to get tailormade clothes. There are hundreds of shops where you can get your clothes stitched. The variety of material & colours that you get in Hoi An market is simply vast Usually, the good hotels have a free shuttle transfer to a designated spot near the market. The service though is at a pre-determined time, so one must check the schedule if you have to avail of this free pick up back from the market to the hotel.

The best Hoian ancient town walking tour !!
This was a very enjoyable tour around Hoi An old town. Our guide, Anna, shared very interesting information about HoiAn. I recommend this tour to learn about the historic old town area. We walked to the old Japanese bridge, an old home, a temple, walked the market, walked along the water, went to a show. Our guide Anna then recommended a great place for a Banh mi sandwich dinner. This was a wonderful afternoon. Highly recommended Thank you.

Excellent walking tour of the Hou An Old Town
We had a wonderful walking tour of Hoi An. Jun was an excellent guide - friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed her description of the history and culture of Hoi An and, more broadly, life in Vietnam. We went for an 8am tour and missed the crowds. We highly recommend this tour.
