Quoc was very friendly and hospitable. Even though i was the only one for that day, could see that he was very sincere in making sure that i had the full experience. Unfortunately that day was cloudy and was experiencing low tide, hence we did not manage to catch the sunset and couldnt go the usual scenic route but he did an impromptu route to make sure that the trip was still fun! Manage to speak to some fishermen-womans on the trip and also learnt more about the local scene. Quoc also made gd effort in taking many photos for me and checked that i was feeling ok during the whole journey! Definitely would recommend!
Three men came to Hoi An to play and signed up for a kayak tour. They picked us up right in front of our accommodation and gave us a ride home. The river breeze was cool and kayaking itself was such an exciting and unique experience. It was also great taking pictures of the unique scenery. The guide spoke English fluently, so communication was no problem at all. The single kayak was a bit difficult ㅋㅋㅋ There is also a kayak for two people to ride together, so I recommend that. We rode it and were all exhausted ㅎㅎ Overall, it was a great experience and memory. In addition to the pictures we took ourselves, the guide also sent us the best shots he took during the tour via KakaoTalk 👍 I highly recommend this tour in Hoi An.
Long was an excellent guide! He offered 3 diff route options based on difficulty and tide conditions. We chose to go through the cocopalm area as it was something not accessible without the kayaks. He also shared about the local wild life and farms which was insightful. I would rly recommend this!
The tour provides water and waterproof bags. The guide first takes us paddling to the coconut forest on the opposite bank. Compared to the bustle of the basket boats, it's much quieter here. We venture into the nesting grounds of water birds and watch flocks of birds fly past. Paddling back to the other bank, we enter another waterway, behind a luxury hotel, where we also encounter basket boats. During the tour, the guide will help take photos. The final landing is near the night market. This is an opportunity to see Hoi An from a different perspective, and it's really worthwhile.
a well planned journey picking us from the hotel and back. The guide, Viet, has some good English which may be a little hard to understand but still manageable. He explained some history of Hoi An and the life of the fisherman along the way. if you want to see a different viewpoint of Hoi An off from the city centre and have a little adventure, this is suitable for you. make sure you have enough arm power to row. approximately, 6km for a 2 hours tour.
I did the sunset kayaking tour and it was an excellent experience. I was the only participant, which actually made the tour even more personal and special. Our guide, Quân, was fantastic. He was clearly happy to share his knowledge about the area, its culture, and local details. He quickly adapted the route and duration to make sure I had the best and most complete experience possible, without rushing and always attentive to what I wanted to see and explore. Everything went perfectly from start to finish. Highly recommended!
absolutely a wonderful excursion! I love to Kayak and it was so Beautiful . we were fortunate enough to see water, buffalo, crossing the river! The trip was timed so we had a perfect view of the sunset. our guide was knowledgeable and super hospitable! So many beautiful photo opportunities highly recommend this trip.
The tour was fantastic. It was just us and the guide which was great. He was really knowledgeable and gave us a different perspective of Hoi An and the surrounding area. We finished the tour just outside of the old town, with a free drink at a local cafe! We were then given the option to go into the old town or be taken back to the hotel. Would recommend this tour to anyone, you don’t need prior kayaking experience to enjoy the tour as all information is given beforehand!
A very interesting experience! The tour guide explained everything carefully. This is the only kayaking tour company in Hoi An. We participated in the sunset kayak tour, which was 6.5km long in total, with a rest stop on a shoal after about 3km. There was also delicious coffee to drink afterwards. There are changing rooms, water, and dry bags available at the starting point, as well as single and double kayaks. The endpoint is a 5-minute walk from Hoi An Night Market, next to Hoi An Ancient Town. The experience of paddling through the coconut forest yourself is very special. I recommend everyone to participate.
Awesome experience. Visited the coconut village and down the river, with great views as the sun sets. Be prepared for aching arms at the end of the day! No regrets whatsoever!!
