hangcoconut Basket Boat Tour
Description
Basket boat tours on the Thu Bon River coconut palm forests outside Hoi An. You sit in a round woven boat while a local guide rows you through the waterways, spins the boat in circles, and puts on a small show – there are a few set-piece moments built into the route so it never drags.
