  1. Must do tour in Hoi An!

    Melissa S

    Such a great tour! We had a group of 6 friends and were picked up at the hotel. Went to some unexpected places we never would have found on our own, not just the night market which we loved. Khanh was absolutely fantastic. Best tour, great boat ride and some really interesting stories about Vietnam and their cuisine. Highly recommend and make sure you request Khanh

  2. Great experience. Will definitely do this trip again

    Our guide gave us a particularly good introduction to the main attractions of Hoi An: his explanations were fascinating. At each stage, he took the time to put the place in its historical context. He also ensured our well-being despite the stifling temperature.
