Discover Coconut Forest Hoi An By Basket Boat

We really enjoyed it; therefore , the 4 stars. We'd recommend this tour. It's a new tour so there is some room for some minor improvements. Hotel pick up, taxi, was arranged by the guide which was very helpful. We paid for the taxi but it was still convenient. The return taxi to the hotel was a little bit more than the initial taxi but not much, just be aware. The tour is new so the young guide/owner made every effort to make sure we enjoyed ourselves which we did. We may have been the first guests so he's off to a great start. He provided juice and coffee and some fresh fruit. The tour is actually linked with his new restaurant but it was too early in the day for food service. I got to try tossing the fishing net, taught by a local fisherman on his fishing boat. A first for me. I sucked at it so I won't be changing careers. Tipped a $1. There was a guy in another basket boat showing off his boating skills to the Gangnam Style music. Hard to believe but it was entertaining. Tipped $1 Just remember to keep some small bills/currency for tips. We truly wish the guide all the best and a successful business.

We highly recommend this experience! We opted to pay extra to be picked up by a driver and dropped at the location of the excursion. Upon drop-off, we were warmly met by Thanh, our guide. He took us to have some fresh fruit and freshly squeezed juice as he explained the itinerary for the excursion. Then, we got into our boat and enjoyed sailing along the non-crowded river. The man rowing our boat was very friendly and pointed out different highlights and attractions along the way. He also stopped to teach us to crab fish, which we quickly became successful with! He also took us to a fisherman who taught us how to fish with a net -- we were less successful with this but learning the technique was still fun! we were not at all harassed for tips, which we appreciated, but we chose to anyway because of how kind everyone was. After the cruise, we were given more fresh juice, which we loved.

Este chante lo acaba de adquirir un compita buena nota que le pone cariño al brete. Habla buen inglés, es honesto, cuidadoso y no se lo chulea a uno. Nos dio un fresco de fruta fresca al llegar y al salir, y siempre fue muy atento. El paseo en bote-canasta fue por unos 40 min y nos lo dio una señora que bailaba Gangnam Style y pescó un cangrejillo. Todo muy tuanis y a buen precio. Ak7. ¡Pura vida!
