Tour Itinerary
We’ll set a time for the walking tour of the peaceful Old Town, which is pedestrianized and an absolute joy to walk around. It’s impossible to take more than a few steps without seeing ancient buildings and temples full of character from Hoi An’s colourful past. A former port city with a melting pot of influences from China, Japan, and France, Hoi An is truly a beautiful and unique place, perfectly preserved and yet full of new life!
You’ll see many highlights on this walking tour including the Japanese covered bridge, the old merchant’s house, and the famous lanterned streets and markets. For lunch, we’ll be free to either sample local delicacies at a restaurant or try tasty street food as we wander through these ancient streets.
Transfer to the making Lantern class. You are guided to make lantern and own your pretty handmade one. Vietnamese people are very good with hand skills. It is time for you to show your talent. You will see it is worthy!
Come sunset, thousands of lamps and colourful lanterns will be lit all along Hoi An’s picturesque streets, buildings, and trees- even the river is filled with floating lanterns. It truly is a sight to behold and makes for a magical experience and an unforgettable evening.
