Tin Basket Boat Tour
Description
Tin Basket Boat Tour runs coconut basket boat rides through the quieter waterways around Hoi An, away from the spots where tour groups pile up. For 130,000 VND you get about 45 minutes on the water, stops for photos, the basket spinning demo, a water at the start, and a fresh coconut at the end (that’s a solid deal for what you get).
The boat drivers speak enough English to actually communicate, take photos for you without being asked twice, and don’t rush through it. That combination is rarer than it should be on this stretch of river.
One thing worth knowing: touts on motorbikes sometimes intercept people on the main road trying to redirect them to other operators. Walk past them and find Tin directly.
Highlights
Insider Tip
