Must do in Hoi An
Our day started at the Lantern Lady where the team patiently guided us through how to make a lantern. It was really fun and the lanterns turned out beautifully. We then moved on to the eco cooking and crab fishing tour. The family were very welcoming in inviting us into their home. The crab fishing was really fun, it was nice being out on the boat and sailing around the mangroves. After we returned, we were given a 6 course traditional Hoi An Vietnamese style meal. Best food we have had so far during our stay here. Absolutely delicious. Highly recommend.

Superb tour
Fantastic tour! We had so much fun making our own lanterns with very helpful staff. The bamboo boats were great, lots of fun but hot! Lunch was lovely and it was a pleasant experience sitting and chatting to the homeowner.

Why this scores 88
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hoi An Full Lantern Making Class , Basket Boat , Crab Fishing And Food: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hoi An.
How much does Hoi An Full Lantern Making Class , Basket Boat , Crab Fishing And Food cost?
+
Prices start at $21 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 Hoi An Full Lantern Making Class , Basket Boat , Crab Fishing And Food 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 Hoi An is not rushed.
Is Hoi An Full Lantern Making Class , Basket Boat , Crab Fishing And Food worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 88 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 106 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 Hoi An Full Lantern Making Class , Basket Boat , Crab Fishing And Food?
+
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 Full Lantern Making Class , Basket Boat , Crab Fishing And Food suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 4. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 5-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Hoi An Full Lantern Making Class , Basket Boat , Crab Fishing And Food?
+
Around 37 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hoi An Full Lantern Making Class , Basket Boat , Crab Fishing And Food 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.
