Hoi An Express!
We had another wonderful family experience with Hoi An Express! We have been using Hoi An Express for our trips to Vietnam since 2004, and they continue to provide excellent service every time. Our tour included snorkeling on Cham Island followed by a fun basket boat tour through the coconut river in Hoi An. Our tour guide was professional, friendly, and funny, and he made the whole experience even more enjoyable. He was also very knowledgeable about the history of Cham Island and shared lots of interesting information with us. We made some last-minute changes to our itinerary, and Hoi An Express was incredibly accommodating and helpful in making everything work smoothly. After using Hoi An Express for more than 20 years, we can confidently say they are a company we trust and highly recommend. A fantastic experience from start to finish!

The absolute highlight of our trip!!!!
The ABSOLUTE HIGHLIGHT of our entire trip to Vietnam. Our boat “Captain” was a lovely older man who created the most amazing connection with our young son - making him a little fishing line with a stick and string and together they caught a little crab (which we later returned to nature). The atmosphere in the coconut village - the music, seeing everyone having fun - was an amazing experience and something everyone needs to do!!!

Awesome experience!
This is a fantastic tour where you get to be in a basket boat cast a net for fish and use the large Celine nets to catch fish all in one tour. You also get lunch on board. This is a fantastic private experience to see the best in the area from a local fishermen who spent years in the hospitality industry and knows how to take care of guests. Best tour for the money. Well worth it.
Response from the operator: Dear ken1ceo, Many thanks for this excellent review on your tour with Hoi An Express. We are delighted to know that you enjoyed these few days with us.

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Entry Ticket: Basket Boat Ride in Cam Thanh Coconut forest: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hoi An.
How much does Entry Ticket: Basket Boat Ride in Cam Thanh Coconut forest cost?
+
Prices start at $10 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 Entry Ticket: Basket Boat Ride in Cam Thanh Coconut forest take?
+
Plan for about 0.8 hours 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 Entry Ticket: Basket Boat Ride in Cam Thanh Coconut forest worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 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 Entry Ticket: Basket Boat Ride in Cam Thanh Coconut forest?
+
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 Entry Ticket: Basket Boat Ride in Cam Thanh Coconut forest suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Entry Ticket: Basket Boat Ride in Cam Thanh Coconut forest?
+
Around 1 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 0.8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Entry Ticket: Basket Boat Ride in Cam Thanh Coconut forest 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 Hidden Gems in Rural Villages & River Islands PRIVATE TOUR, Coconut Jungle Eco & Hoi An City Tour With Boat Ride, 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.
