Highlights of Hoi An: Coconut Boat, Local specialty, Lantern Boat

Start your tour as our friendly tour guide picks you up from your hotel and takes you to the tranquil Water Coconut Forest. Hop into a traditional basket boat and glide through the lush palm canals, learning about local life along the water. Return to Hoi An to indulge in two of the town's most iconic dishes: Cao Lầu, a savory noodle dish found nowhere else in Vietnam, and the legendary Bánh Mì Phượng, famously praised by Anthony Bourdain. Quench your thirst afterward with a cup of the most famous herbal tea in Hoi An at the beloved Mot herbal tea shop—a refreshing local secret. After that, wander through the historic Hoi An Ancient Town, once one of Southeast Asia’s busiest trading ports, and uncover its rich heritage around every corner. As dusk falls, board a lantern-lit boat along the Hoai River. Admire the old town from the water, release a glowing lantern, and make a wish—a magical ending to your Hoi An story.
