So glad I booked a tour. I am on a solo trip and the join in group was the right call. Picked up and dropped off in my hotel. Joy, our guide was a delight and very personal. There's just a lot of walk and it can be very humid and hot. I liked the noodles that was served to us after our tour. Bring water, fan, umbrella and extra clothing just in case. Also, some cash. Entrance fee of 150000 Vnd is not included in this tour.

If you are interested in learning about Vietnam’s last emperor, you have to book this tour. It will be very hot so bringing an umbrella is a must. wear something that will protect you from the heat of the sun.

This was really a great tour and I recommend this to have in your bucket list. My friends and I really enjoyed our half day tour at Hoi An, from the Coconut Boat experience, walking in the ancient town of Hoi An, up to the lantern release at Hoai River. We also had a very warm and cozy vibe at Me Hoi An Rooftop Cafe.
We’d also like to thank our tour guide, Nam. He’s very accommodating and helpful. He gave us raincoats when it started raining. He also searched for the nearest specific atm machine when we needed it. Again, thank you so much Mr. Nam 🫶🏻

We had a very enjoyable tour experience. We felt at ease because our guide reconfirmed the meeting time and place the day before, and even messaged us on the day of the tour to let us know they would be arriving soon. It's a good idea to install and set up WhatsApp beforehand for communication. Although we chose an English-speaking guide, when we mentioned we only spoke Japanese, they used a translation app to convey the itinerary and important information. The dinner was unfortunately cold, but the taste was excellent, and we were satisfied. We also had plenty of free time in Hoi An, which made it feel very private. I highly recommend this wonderful experience to others. Other plans that only offer round-trip transfers have fewer meeting points and more restrictions, and it can be very unsettling if there are delays in arrival. I've experienced this in Bali. Especially when returning to Da Nang, as it's around 9 PM, you'll need to arrange transportation from the drop-off point to your hotel. Therefore, I believe this tour offers the best value for money overall. Please note that the basket boat ride is an additional charge and must be done during your free time.

This is a natural landscape and historical site located far from the city center, so it receives significantly fewer visitors compared to places like Ba Na Hills or Hoi An Ancient Town. It is quite a distance away, so if you're not particularly interested in natural scenery and historical sites, I wouldn't highly recommend making the trip. There are many ancient temples within the park, but according to our guide, over 80% of them have been reconstructed. This is because most of the temples were destroyed by successive rulers and bombing during the Vietnam War. If you're not someone with a deep interest in history, you might find that many of them look quite similar. It gets extremely hot in the summer, and there are no air-conditioned areas within the entire park, so the only relief you'll find is under the shade of trees. There are quite a few gnats, so remember to bring insect repellent. I purchased a package that included a rice paper making experience and a very unique home-cooked meal, both of which were special experiences. Overall, considering the price, which included a guide, driver, admission tickets to the attractions, the rice paper experience, and the home-style meal, the value for money is actually very high.

Marble Mountain is definitely a must-visit in Da Nang! The stunning caves, ancient pagodas, and breathtaking panoramic views make the climb worth every step. A perfect blend of nature, history, and spirituality—highly recommended for anyone visiting the city. 🌿⛰️✨ Btw, Thomas was a great guide. Thanks!

This was really great! Milo, our driver was lovely and helped a lot with understanding what we were doing and where we were going! He allowed us to stop when we wanted to take photos and suggested places to go when we visited certain areas. The activities were also amazing, we had an amazing time. everything was paid for and organised for us, but we didn’t have someone guiding us around, which meant we could move freely around. Thank you Milo, we loved it a lot!

Had an amazing day tour to Hue exploring Vietnam's historical heritage! This was by far the best handled guided tour I've taken.
Our guide, Tâm, messaged the pickup time in advance and met me right at the hotel entrance. We took the tunnel instead of the Hai Van Pass, but Tâm gave us a great history overview along the way, including a nice coffee break at a lagoon.
The Highlights:
Khai Dinh Tomb: Incredibly beautiful and unique architecture.
Lunch: A wonderful group meal at a lovely hotel. Tâm perfectly handled my dietary restrictions.
Thien Mu Pagoda: Stunning views and even better architecture.
The Imperial Citadel: Amazing!! I’ve never seen such a beautifully restored palace. It was worth every bit of the heat.
Quick Tip: The 2.5-hour drive is very comfortable and great for a nap. Definitely bring a hat and stay hydrated, as walking around the sites gets really hot.
Overall, an incredible experience!

This was an amazing heritage tour that covered beautiful scenes - Danang Bay, coastline, lagoons, tunnels/hills and history of Vietnam royalty. Sam, our tour guide made our heritage journey all the more enjoyable with his jovial style and excellent knowledge of Vietnam royal lineage, historical dates, palaces, pagodas and tombs. Sam is from the historic city of Hue and proudly shared with us interesting facts. He easily connected with our tour group and proactively gave us tips for safety and cultural etiquette. He made us feel comfortable despite the hot humid weather. I had booked the tour only a day before and was impressed how smoothly VM Tourism made arrangements for me including 2 way transfer from my hotel in Hoi An to Danang Train Station. Excellent communication for car pickup and a great coach driver. The first leg of the tour was in a heritage train which itself was a memorable experience. I recommend visitors to Danang/ Hoi An not to miss this tour with VM. Thank you Sam!

What to know before visiting Hội An
Top Hoi An Attractions
Hoi An Ancient Town
The heart of Hoi An is its Ancient Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site filled with narrow streets, old merchant houses, and colorful lanterns. You can explore historic spots like Tan Ky House, the Japanese Covered Bridge, and charming riverside cafes that show off Hoi An’s timeless beauty.
Japanese Covered Bridge
One of Hoi An’s most famous landmarks, the Japanese Covered Bridge connects two parts of the Old Town and represents the city’s rich cultural mix. Visit during the early morning or at night when it’s beautifully lit by lanterns for the best experience.
Thu Bon River
Take a boat ride along the Thu Bon River to see local life up close. In the evening, you can release paper lanterns onto the water or enjoy dinner at a riverside local restaurant, making it one of the most peaceful experiences in Hoi An.
An Bang Beach
Just a short 5-minute bike ride from Hoi An’s Ancient Town, An Bang Beach is perfect for relaxing under palm trees and swimming in the warm sea. You’ll find beach bars, local beer, and seafood restaurants serving fresh Vietnamese food right by the water.
Thanh Ha Pottery Village
A quick day trip from Hoi An, Thanh Ha Pottery Village lets you see traditional pottery-making in action. You can even try shaping your own clay piece and learn about this centuries-old craft passed down through local families.
Hoi An Night Market
When the sun sets, the Hoi An Night Market comes alive with colorful lanterns, street food, and handmade souvenirs. It’s a great place to taste banh mi and white rose dumplings and shop for local crafts while taking in the lively Vietnamese culture.
Tips before visiting Hoi An
1. Visit During the Dry Season
The best time to visit Hoi An is from February to April, when the weather is sunny and comfortable. Avoid the rainy season (October to January) since heavy rain and flooding can affect your plans.
2. Get a Vietnam eSIM for Easy Connectivity
Stay connected during your trip by getting a Vietnam eSIM from Klook. It’s convenient for using maps, booking tickets, and checking restaurant reviews while exploring Hoi An’s Ancient Town or nearby beaches.
3. Bring Cash for Local Markets
Many small shops and vendors in Hoi An only accept cash, especially at the Central Market and night markets. ATMs are available, but it’s easier to have some local currency on hand.
4. Explore Early Morning or Evening
Hoi An can get crowded and hot and humid during the day, so plan your Hoi An walking tours in the early morning or evening. You’ll enjoy the lantern-lit streets with fewer crowds and cooler weather.
