Top Hoi An Archaeology Tours

Unlike the majority of excursions, this tour visits My Son Sanctuary at sunrise, when temperatures are lowest and crowds are at a minimum. Ideal for history buffs, this private option promises undivided attention from your guide and comes with convenient round-trip transfers from Hoi An, which ensure you stay cool and have more time to focus on the scenery.

Hoi An is renowned for its street food, but knowing where to go as a visitor is tough. This evening tour helps you navigate the maze of bustling markets and narrow alleyways. A local guide offers insight into local food culture and takes you to stalls and restaurants, where you can try tasty dishes such as banh mi (a type of Vietnamese sandwich), BBQ pork, noodle dishes, and sweets. Entrance fee not included.

Step back in time to Hoi An Ancient Town, a well-preserved historical trading port recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage site.

Snorkel the vivid coral reefs of the Cham Islands on a full-day trip from Hoi An and Da Nang into the Cu Lao Cham archipelago, a UNESCO-listed marine biosphere. You’ll make the crossing in a traditional wooden boat, then slip into the water to see the bright fish and coral that thrive in the protected area. Following your snorkeling time, head to Bai Chong beach for a Vietnamese seafood lunch at the edge of the water, soaking up the sun on the white sand beach before returning to the mainland.

Enjoy a full-day tour of two UNESCO World Heritage sites from your central Hoi An hotel. Explore the ancient ruins of My Son Sanctuary, the capital of the Cham Dynasty.
