About
The Hoi An countryside is a peaceful and remarkably beautiful place. Hop on your bicycle, cross the river on a local boat, and then cycle through the stunning landscape on the islet of Cam Kim, along the Thu Bon river. During the ride, you'll have the chance to stop by and interact with people working in various workshops, such as noodle makers and carpenters, and learn about the work on the fields. This slow-paced ride is not only interesting but also incredibly relaxing.
Embark on a bike tour of Hoi An with a local professional tour guide who knows the city like only a local can. Discover the back lanes, learn the villagers' names, and listen to the local legends whispered from mothers to their children. Our tours offer a genuine connection with the place and its people through the stories, myths, and legends shared by those who cherish them in their hearts. And, of course, you'll have the opportunity to indulge in occasional local delicacies that will tantalize your palate and give you stories to write home about.
