This was such a great experience! A family owned & run business, the class was fun and engaging and we learned how to make the best coffees. If you are in Hoi An and you love your daily coffee, this activity is a must.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. It's a family business where it's a lot of cousins and siblings taking care of attendees. They are very ey kind and take care of everyone at their own speed so you get to take home a beautiful lantern. Bonus star for the play list. ^^

I had a wonderful experience joining the Making Lantern Class with Lantern Boat Trip. The lantern-making workshop was fun, engaging, and easy to follow, even for beginners. The instructor was patient and explained each step clearly, allowing everyone to create their own beautiful handmade lantern.
After the class, the lantern boat trip was truly magical. Cruising along the river while admiring the colorful lanterns reflecting on the water created a peaceful and unforgettable atmosphere. The view was especially stunning in the evening when the town lit up with hundreds of glowing lanterns.
The combination of a cultural hands-on activity and a relaxing boat ride made this experience unique and memorable. It was a great way to learn about local traditions while enjoying the beauty of the city. I highly recommend this activity to anyone visiting Hoi An, whether you're traveling with family, friends, or as a couple.

Experience: It was very impressive to try woodworking for the first time. I didn't think it would be possible to create something in 3 hours, but I was able to finish even difficult tasks with a lot of help from the instructor. Instructor: I admired the way other artisans worked and their creations. I was grateful that the instructor with many years of experience was kind and taught me well. Safety: You need to be careful because you are handling sharp tools.

This class was super fun and chilled. I was guided through every step and eventually ended up with a really nice painting. All the staff were lovely and had really good banter. Highly reccomend 🇻🇳☺️. They have also changed address but it’s literally around the corner from where it’s stated on Klook.

It was a very nice experience to create your own piece of art. My four year old could paint multiple wood pieces, which she greatly enjoyed. The only thing I wished for was a bit of instruction. Overall a great experience!

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.
