Hoi An: Basket Boat Ride in the Coconut Forest - Starting the morning with water and a welcome

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 4,956 reviews · 50 minutes - 3 hours · from $3.88Our pick

Review of Hoi An’s Coconut Forest basket boat ride, with practical tips on timing, cost, crab fishing, boat spinning, and what to expect.

“Very fun and would recommend. Worth noting that to do the boat spinning is an extra cost when you arrive which we weren’t told about when booking!! So not as good value for money as originally thought. The whole activity from pick up to drop off was extremely well planned and good communication throughout”

Review of Hoi An’s My Son Sanctuary and Thu Bon River trip, with Champa dance, local food, practical timings, costs, and honest advice.

“This was a very good investment of time and money to learn more about the early history of Vietnam and the people who built these temples. Our guide was fun and engaging and very well informed about the sites. Our driver did a great job of getting us all where we needed to go quickly and safely. My Son was incredibly interesting - temples had many similarities to those in Cambodia. Sad to know most of the temples were lost to air bombings. We were able to catch the dance and music show as well, showing some of the Champa culture. All in all a very good experience I recommend…”
