Take to the streets and the waterways to discover the charm of one of Vietnam’s most loved towns. On this unique boat and bike tour in Hoi An you will escape the hustle and bustle, weaving through the backstreets to reach the country lanes that lie outside the town’s borders. Start your Hoi An with boat tour that will take around 30 min. Follow your guide to the banks of the Thu Bon River to take to the waterways and discover even more of the area. Cruise along the river and enjoy the changing light over the city as the sun sets and we make our way to the Old Town dock.

Next up the bike portion and follow country laneways to reach some of the villages that are dotted throughout the region, stopping to talk to the locals and learn more about life in this part of Vietnam. We will cycle to a farming area called Tra Que Vegetable Village, which supplies organic veggies for all Hoi An and nearby areas. Pass emerald rice paddies, snaking waterways and plenty of waving children as you discover some of the beautiful landscapes found in this region. On the way we also stop for a drink to cool off from the heat.

Afterwards, visit a local restaurant for a feast of authentic flavours with a friendly family. You can expect a set menu with 6 dishes like: salad, BBQ Pork, chicken, beef with steamed rice, egg plant, seasonal fruit). Their hospitality (and cooking!) will mark the perfect ending to your afternoon in Hoi An, with lots of laughter and smiles.

This tour includes a 10-kilometre bike ride on flat roads to the villages outside Hoi An. While the ride is not overly strenuous, it will require a basic level of physical fitness and you should be comfortable with riding a bicycle.
