Arrive at the lush Seven Acres Coconut Forest, a hidden gem that once served as a sanctuary during the war. Step into a “Thuyen Thung” (Bamboo Basket Boat)—a unique, circular vessel that is a hallmark of Central Vietnam.

The Mastery of Spinning: Prepare to be amazed as local rowers perform the “Basket Boat Spinning” show. Watch them dance with the waves and spin their boats at incredible speeds to the rhythm of local music.

Hands-on Traditions: It’s your turn to be a local! Learn the delicate art of casting a traditional fishing net and try “purple crab hunting” using small bamboo poles among the coconut roots. It’s a fun, interactive way to experience the daily life of the villagers.

After your river adventure, we head to a charming riverside restaurant for the tour’s culinary highlight. You won’t just have lunch; you’ll enjoy a 12-course banquet featuring the best of Hoi An’s countryside flavors:

Steamed Chicken with herbs, Salt-Roasted Shrimp, Claypot Braised Mackerel, Scallops with onion oil, Crispy Banh Xeo (Vietnamese Pancakes), Squid Stir-fry, and more local specialties. * Enjoy your meal in the cool, natural breeze of the river—a perfect way to relax.

With a full heart and a satisfied palate, your driver will take you back to your hotel. You’ll arrive back in town with plenty of time to enjoy the afternoon sun in the Ancient Town.
