Very cool and personal experience!

Ashley_K, May 2026

Very good experience with the lantern making! We got to choose our shape and fabric and were given clear instructions throughout the process. Very happy with the final product and a wonderful souvenir to remind us of our time in Hoi An

Fun lantern making memories

Saskia_L, May 2026

Lots of fun, very helpful and lots of fabric to choose from. Would definitely recommend instead of buying a pre-made one

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for your lovely review! We’re happy you had fun and enjoyed choosing your own fabric. It means a lot that you’d recommend us—hope to welcome you again!

Excellent fun

D_B, Apr 2026

It was great fun. The teacher was very helpful with very good english. Heaps of colours and patterns to choose from, and different shaped lanterns. I would recommend it as a great experience. Although you could do it in an hour not the two it advertised. But there was only two of us, .aybe a large group would take longer. A fun activity for all ages. Easy to find by the market.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you for your lovely feedback! We're glad you had fun and enjoyed the variety of lanterns. The class duration can vary depending on the number of participants, but we truly appreciate your comments. Hope to welcome you again!

Lovely morning

Nichola_L, Apr 2026

This was such a lovely workshop. You were able to select a small 20cm lantern in a variety of shapes, chose your own fabric and select your own tassel. The ladies helped to stretch the fabric to the correct tightness and showed us how to open and fold it. They were very kind and had a great range of fabric to chose from.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re really happy to hear that you enjoyed choosing your lantern design and fabrics. Our team always loves helping guests create their own unique piece. It means a lot to us that you appreciated the experience and our support. We hope to welcome you again for another fun workshop in Hoi An! 😊

Great experience, ample tuition and time given to make my lantern. I did not feel rushed even though the place was really busy. Very happy with my lantern.
