A hidden gem in Hoi An! The coconut boat and spinning experience was truly one of a kind and such a fun, memorable experience. The cooking class that followed, hosted by Thui, was exceptionally well organised and informative. Everything was thoughtfully prepared, with all the ingredients, crockery, and cutlery provided. Thui did a wonderful job explaining each step and demonstrating the techniques, making the entire experience enjoyable and easy to follow. What really stood out was Thui’s warm hospitality. She truly rolled out the red carpet for us and made us feel incredibly welcome from start to finish. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Hoi An. An unforgettable experience, wonderful hospitality, and a fantastic way to experience Vietnamese culture!
Fabulous experience highly recommended
It was a really nice ride. We had lots of fun and the guide was great and friendly. We did crab fishing and then we got a chance to paddle the boat as well. A must try
Many other tours had a minimum of 2 people, as a solo traveller this company was good - the hotel pick up and drop off driver was friendly and it was easy. The lady who directed me to and from the boat was pleasant. The lady who took me in the boat was fun and friendly - showed me photo opportunities, coconuts and Vietnamese crabs.
Our boat ride was so much fun. Our guide made the ride so entertaining and was explaining things as we went. He also took great photos of us. Would highly recommend doing this boat ride!!
Wonderful experience that you shouldn't skip. Book in advance or pay upon arrival, price was $4.50/person. Basket boat fits 2 adults and a small child. Route takes approximately 30min. A small portion is shaded but they provide traditional Vietnamese hats and an umbrella. Tam was an energetic, fun and strong lady. Even with our language barrier we had a good time and some new memories thanks to her. Highly recommend!
We had an excellent time ! Its 50 minutes of fun and laughs, the tour company were excellent, and went out of their way to make us happy. Book with confidence! Thank you Hung, for making it such a great trip.
Thank you so much! We’re happy you had fun and enjoyed seeing the crabs 😊 Hung will be very glad to hear your kind words. Hope to see you again in Hoi An!
We were wanting to do a basket ride through the coconut forest but no idea as to which one. We took a grab and this was the first location we came too. We had a boat each and wonderful drivers who were super fun, singing, excitement and the wonderful cooling breeze from the water. Such a colourful experience, such a wonderful experience.
Thank you so much! 😊 Hope to see you again in Hoi An!
Fun experience, good value for money. The kids loved it and the guides are good fun. We went around midday which was really hot, I would recommend going earlier in the morning or late afternoon.
The trip was amazing and very fun, a must do when youre in Hoi an! The people were so friendly and were there to make sure you had a great experience!
