Great day tour to Hoi an ancient town and enjoy 2 boat rides.

The tour was very well organised and the tour guide was very engaging. Talent the tour guild was wonderful with our two young kids which make the trip very memorable. They pick us up from our hotel in My Khe beach at TMS da nang and drop us off. Talent got out of the van to help us cross the road. Service was 5 star. The tour didn’t seemed rushed and we had time to walk around and get some souvenir at hoi an ancient town.

Hoi An & Coconut Forest Trip Review ✨🌴

The trip overall was really nice! Hoi An is absolutely beautiful—especially at night when the lanterns light up the whole town. It’s such a magical vibe and definitely a highlight of the trip. The coconut forest experience was fun and something different, but the day did have a few downsides. Unfortunately, there was a group traveling with us who were late to every meeting point, which affected the flow of the tour. It got frustrating at times, and one of the ladies in our group even decided to cancel the rest of her tour because of it. I also mentioned to the guide that I don’t eat seafood, but at dinner, almost everything served was seafood. They did provide vegetable spring rolls (which were nice), but the rest of the meal included prawns, fish with rice, and even the salad had prawns. Dessert was just a banana, which felt a bit underwhelming. That said, Ron, our tour guide, was amazing—super friendly and very knowledgeable about Vietnam and its history. He really added to the experience, and I would definitely recommend him. Overall, the destinations themselves were beautiful and worth visiting, but the organization and food experience could definitely be improved.

Operator response

Dear Mr. Kenau Barker, We appreciate your feedback on our trip. Unfortunately, the tour guide made such a serious mistake during the trip. We will consider taking disciplinary action in this case and improving in the future.

Amazing experience! 5/5 stars

Very fun, informative, and a great cultural experience. Our guide Khanh was polite and professional. We enjoyed riding the basket boats in the rivers and releasing the flower lanterns. Only suggestion is at dinner, we weren’t given an option on what to eat. The restaurant was pre selected as was the meal. Overall though, it was a wonderful time!
