I really had no intention of going to Bay Mau Coconut Forest, but I thought the time was right, so I decided to book this program. Fortunately, I made the right choice; it was really fun and bustling. I burst out laughing with delight as the boatman spun my basket boat around, among many other interesting things. Exploring Hoi An Ancient Town provided a different space, and I got to visit places considered highlights in this area. Riding a boat on the river in Hoi An Ancient Town was peaceful, and everything was beautiful."

Great! Absolutely amazing! I must say, this experience exceeded my expectations. I had a thoroughly delightful afternoon with this journey. My boyfriend was highly satisfied, and it felt like I gained extra points in his eyes for choosing such a reputable venue. Mr. Phat, our tour guide, played a crucial role in making this journey even more successful. Thank you all for creating a perfect experience.

The idea of going on a boat trip in Hoi An is excellent. We sat on a boat on the river in Hoi An Ancient Town at sunset, and it was an extremely beautiful moment. Even better, we had private time to walk around the old town and weave through the narrow alleys. The tour guide introduced us to delicious street food in this place, and I appreciated its flavors. It was a perfect journey for me.

I had a good experience. My family and I went with a female tour guide who spoke very good English. We were transported in a clean and spacious private vehicle. I really enjoyed the experience of riding a basket boat among the coconut trees. We even had the opportunity to ask the boatman to spin our basketboat around. Hoi An at night is incredibly beautiful, sitting on a boat watching the sunset is a great idea. A special thank you to Ms. Trancy, our personal tour guide.
