Full description
8:00 AM /2:00 PM – Your guide picks you up at your hotel in Hoi An and leads you through the narrow back lanes of Hội An’s UNESCO-listed Ancient Town, where daily life unfolds between crumbling yellow walls and potted bougainvillea. No tour buses, just the hum of electric scooters.
Cross over to Cẩm Nam Island and follow the Thu Bồn riverbank, stopping to explore a centuries-old communal shrine still active with local worship. Meet fishermen and farmers whose lives are tied to the river — a world rarely seen by visitors.
A short detour brings you to a local leather craft workshop, where artisans hand-stitch bags and sandals using traditional techniques. Then head to Cẩm Thanh village to glide through the shimmering water coconut forest on a bamboo basket boat, guided by a skilled local boatman.
The tour ends with a light local snack before your guide returns you to your hotel.
