    We did not enjoy our...

    We did not enjoy our experience much. We had one large family with a baby who treated the tour as a private tour and our tour guide was overwhelmed. We were rushed to dinner at 6pm so no one was even hungry. And Hoi Ahn was so overcrowded. Our guide shared little to no history about the coconut boats or Hoi Ahn so we ended up calling a taxi and leaving early. I recommend just getting a car to the coconut boats on your own.

    Perfect trip

    Perfect hoian trip.good trip, tour guy was very helpful he answered all our questions, always with a positive attitude, the restaurant was great do not judge the place for its location I promise this is an authentic Vietnamese food place with a variety of dishes to enjoy. Hoi An it's a must go if you're close Da Nang, with a beautiful scenery and a lot of stores, go at night and enjoy the lanterns and the river boats going around.Bih Thanks for your nice trip...

    Brilliant Tour - Danang City

    Coconut boat tour was a new experience for me and my family. The tour is very nice and the agency is very responsive. They coordinated every activity nicely and the guides were awesome too.

    Coconut Boat and Hoi An Tour

    Excellent trip. Especially the coconut boat ride was very good and entertaining. It's around 45 min ride where they take you through back waters surrounded by Coconut trees. Some additional activities can be done by paying additionally such as boat rotation, fishing net throwing, etc. Food was excellent. Vegetarian food was also available. Our guide Vinh was very good, polite, very friendly and guided us nicely throughout the tour. Highly Recommended.

    Hoi an Coconut Boat & Hoi an Ancient Town From Da nang or Hoi an: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Da Nang.

    How much does Hoi an Coconut Boat & Hoi an Ancient Town From Da nang or Hoi an cost?

    +

    Prices start at $43 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Da Nang usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Hoi an Coconut Boat & Hoi an Ancient Town From Da nang or Hoi an take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 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 Da Nang is not rushed.

    Is Hoi an Coconut Boat & Hoi an Ancient Town From Da nang or Hoi an worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 26 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Da Nang, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Hoi an Coconut Boat & Hoi an Ancient Town From Da nang or 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 Hoi an Coconut Boat & Hoi an Ancient Town From Da nang or Hoi an suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Hoi an Coconut Boat & Hoi an Ancient Town From Da nang or Hoi an?

    +

    Around 9 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 Da Nang 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 Da Nang and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Hoi an Coconut Boat & Hoi an Ancient Town From Da nang or 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 Da Nang 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 Da Nang?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Da Nang experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full Day Golden Bridge and Ba Na Hills Small Group Tour, Easy Rider Motorbike Tour via Hai Van Pass From DaNang/HoiAn/Hue, Linh Ung Pagoda - Marble Mountains - Hoi An Ancient Town Daily Ingroup Tour. 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 Da Nang?

    +

    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 Da Nang?

    +

    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 Hoi an Coconut Boat & Hoi an Ancient Town From Da nang or Hoi an?

    +

    Included: Boat in Bay Mau coconute forest; Dinner; All Fees and Taxes; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Hoi An night tour. Not included: Personal Fee. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Is Hoi an Coconut Boat & Hoi an Ancient Town From Da nang or Hoi an wheelchair or stroller accessible?
