Description

This tour offers much more than just sightseeing — it’s a journey through Hoi An’s living history, culture, and flavors. Led by a local expert guide who truly understands the soul of the Ancient Town, you’ll explore the most iconic landmarks while hearing the hidden stories behind them. Unlike many walking tours, this experience also includes authentic local food tasting at family-run eateries — where you can enjoy Cao lầu, Bánh mì, Mì Quảng, and Chè xí mà just like the locals do. We keep the group size small and personal, allowing plenty of time for interaction, photography, and cultural discovery at your own pace. By the end of the tour, you won’t just see Hoi An — you’ll feel it, taste it, and understand why this ancient town has charmed travelers for centuries.

Hoi An Old Town

I had a wonderful time in the old town with Sue. She was great company and taught me so much about Vietnam, life here today and was generous with her personal stories too. Felt like wandering around with a friend.

Must do tour

Flower is a great host who knows not just about the food but the history too. We were in a lovely group and had a great time. Food was all fabulous but make sure you heed the advice to only have a very light lunch

An impressive day in Hue

We made a daytour to Hue with Billy. It was a long but very interesting tour. First we made a short stop at Hai Van pass and enjoyed the beautiful view. Than going to Thiên Mu Pagoda. Billy told us a lot of the history of this place. After that, we visited the Royal City. Very interesting to see how the Vietnamese kings lived. At least Billy showed us the tomb of King Khai Din. Very impressive. Thank you Billy for this very interesting tour and the lot of short breaks because of the very high temperature. We would do it again

Local knowledge and experience

I was lucky to have a solo tour with Hai, and he was a fantastic, knowledgeable and enthusiastic host. He took me to some very interesting places and let me have a very unique experience of Hoi An as a local. Do this tour on an empty stomach as there is a lot of tasty food! Highly recommend!

Memorable experience with our tour guide Billy!

My husband and I had the most wonderful time in Hoi An with Billy! Billy is an excellent tour guide. He has lived in Hoi Ann for most of his life and knows the place through and through. He taught us about the culture, food, language, local insights and mostly everything we needed to know to have a great time in Hoi An. He recommended experiences such as the coffee making workshop, the Hoi An food tour, making dresses and suits with the tailors, all which added a lot of value to our trip. He is friendly, engaging, approachable, made our day feels very relaxed. I particularly loved that he taught us the language - How to say "thank you", "how much", "too much", which helped us converse with the locals. This was especially beneficial at the tailors, for sure! He went above and beyond to tailor the experience for us, Australians. He took care of our day to day worries as he gave cheap and convenient recommendations to laundry, ATM's, pharmacy - all the essential places one may need to visit on a trip far away from home! We had an enjoyable time with him at the Golden bridge. He made sure the trip ran seamlessly. He brought so much of energy and passion and we loved learning from him.

Exceptional Experience with Billy – The Best Guide in Central Vietnam

We visited Vietnam last week and had the most incredible time exploring Hoi An and Ba Na Hills, all thanks to our guide, Billy. He is professional, punctual, and speaks excellent English, which made our trip completely stress-free. Our day at Ba Na Hills was perfectly timed; Billy knew exactly how to navigate the crowds so we could enjoy the Golden Bridge and the French Village without feeling rushed. Beyond the usual spots, he took us to several hidden gems in and around Hoi An that we never would have found on our own. He is also a fantastic photographer and made sure we went home with stunning photos. What really stood out was his kindness and flexibility—he tailored everything to our pace and made us feel like we were travelling with a friend rather than a guide. If you’re visiting Hoi An or Da Nang, do yourself a favour and book with Billy!"

Hoi An Walk with Yummy Food

Loved this Hội An tour. The stops were great and had nice variety from a pagoda visit to a music performance. The food we tried was delicious, especially the white rose dumplings. Our guide Hai was friendly and shared interesting stories throughout. I enjoyed his perspective. He also did a great job managing the heat, keeping us in the shade when possible and balancing indoor and outdoor stops. He even added in a coffee stop for my coffee-loving daughter. We really appreciated how helpful the team was. They rescheduled us with just a few hours’ notice after we had a scooter mishap. Billy is a good communicator and responded to texts really fast. Highly recommend. It was a great day.
