Cocochill Hoi An
Description
Cocochill is a family-run operation where you actually visit their home before heading out on the water. Nhi and her family run the whole thing, speak English comfortably, and treat you more like a guest than a ticket number.
The basket boat ride is the main draw – the spinning, paddling, photo-op kind you’ve seen everywhere in Hoi An, but done here with people who clearly enjoy their work. It wraps up with fresh fruit and pancakes, which is a nicer ending than getting dropped at a dock.
They’ll also help photograph and film you on the water, which saves you from awkwardly asking a stranger. Good fit for families with kids – reviewers with children specifically call it out.

Cons
- Reviews are thin on specifics about pricing or booking process, so confirm details directly before showing up
- Basket boats in Hoi An are a well-worn tourist circuit - this one does it well, but it is still that experience
