Not sure if we actually went with this company?
Like a similar review, we did not actually end up taking this tour because no employees of Green Coconut could be found (finding the place to meet itself was confusing), so we ended up going with a different company who tried to contact them but with no answer ... I think? It was rather confusing. The place and experience itself was a 10/10 however maybe go with a different company or just show up on the day without a booking :)
Response from the operator: Thank you for leaving us a review; however, we never received a booking from you, nor did anyone contact us. Our location is very easy to find on Google Maps—situated right on a main road—and our phone number and WhatsApp details are readily available. We hope that if you did not use our services or make a booking with us, you would refrain from leaving reviews like this. Thank you.

Book it *Be sure to read through your email
At first we were a little frustrated because it was difficult to find the location. Once we found the correct tour location, they were amazing!!! The owner asked if we would speak with him to find out what happened, so he could improve his business. Everyone was very kind and went out of their way to ensure our trip was memorable. They even honored the tickets I bought for 11:15 am!! I can't say enough about their customer service. I highly recommend this place, just remember to read through your email on how to get to the correct business.

Coconut Basket Boat Trip - A Must - Do Experience in Hoi An!: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hoi An.
How much does Coconut Basket Boat Trip - A Must - Do Experience in Hoi An! cost?
+
Prices start at $5 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hoi An usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Coconut Basket Boat Trip - A Must - Do Experience in Hoi An! take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hoi An is not rushed.
Is Coconut Basket Boat Trip - A Must - Do Experience in Hoi An! worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 65 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hoi An, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Coconut Basket Boat Trip - A Must - Do Experience in Hoi An!?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Coconut Basket Boat Trip - A Must - Do Experience in Hoi An! suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Coconut Basket Boat Trip - A Must - Do Experience in Hoi An!?
+
Around 23 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hoi An can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hoi An and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Coconut Basket Boat Trip - A Must - Do Experience in Hoi An! start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hoi An within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Hoi An?
+
On Outty we rank every Hoi An experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hoi An Ancient Town Walking Tour with a Local, Hai Van Pass Motorbike Private Tour with Mister T Easy Rider, Cooking Class Hoi An:Local Market, Basket Boat, Fishing & Cooking. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Hoi An?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Hoi An?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Coconut Basket Boat Trip - A Must - Do Experience in Hoi An!?
