Excellent tour. Our guide, Tony, was wonderful. Very flexible with our needs. Needed to start with lunch and he took us to the best ban mi café. He was very easy to understand, knowledgeable and lots of fun. The lantern night boat ride was wonderful. We can highly recommend this tour. Thank you Tony.

Eric was great. He was knowledgable, friendly and engaging, and the tour was well-paced and informative. We were given a comprehensive yet highly enjoyable picture of the city. Eric also provided an overview of Vietnamese lifestyle and culture that added to our appreciation of both the town and country in general. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to any other visitors!

Eric was a brilliant guide! He was so thorough, funny and showed us all the key sights with the perfect amount of information. He also gave us a tip for a delicious Banh Mi place! Would absolutely recommend this tour.

Our guide, Eric, brought us to all the famous homes, shrines and markets of Hoi An. His excellent English, and informative insights into everyday Vietnamese life and customs, made our tour especially enjoyable.

Hoi An Ancient Town is amazingly well-preserved, though often crowded with tourists. Having a knowledgeable guide makes all the difference in uncovering the stories and history behind its many buildings and structures. Our guide, Eric Ngo, was exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly, making the experience both insightful and enjoyable. We truly appreciated the visit. Thank you, Eric!

“The tour”, friendly guide with lots of knowledge. Arranged lot of things for us outside of tour like right pickup location to driver.
Adriana_N, May 2025
Hoi An is everything I could expect. Visiting Ancient Town during Vesak was a special experience. Raining or not, is a must see place in Vietnam. Lot's of history on a single place. To be guided by Eric helped a lot.
Debbie_C, Apr 2025
Lovely morning with Eric. Highly recommend booking an earlier tour to beat the crowds. We were the only ones on the Japanese bridge that morning.
Sean_Y, Apr 2025
Our walking tour with Eric was a fantastic experience. His English was excellent, and he did a great job explaining the history and the meaning behind each of the sites. I would happily recommend to anyone visiting Hoi An.
Udayan_R, Apr 2025
The Hoi An walking tour was fantastic. We went during the morning/mid day but I can imagine how much more beautiful it is at night. It was an easy and picturesque walk through the town. The boat ride was lovely and a good way to see all angles of the town.
The tour was made that much more pleasant by our tour guide Mhi who was simply amazing. She was personable and shared the history and culture with us. She was attentive and gave us an opportunity to walk a little by ouraelves. We didn't feel rushed.
Overall an excellent tour. Whe. We return will do it at night!
Yolanda_R, Apr 2025
I love Hoi An and would highly recommend this tour. The tour guide Eric was amazing … knowledgeable and delivered the information with humour and warmth. He delayed the tour on our request, so that we could ensure that we were on the boat for the lantern ceremony. He was very open and told us a little about his life and the culture in Hoi An. He made the tour interesting and instilled in you with the passion for Hoi An that he felt. The boat ride on the river and lighting of the lanterns, putting them in the water and making a wish was beautiful and a special memory. Don’t miss this tour.
Eli_B, Apr 2025
Excellent experience. Eric was so friendly and very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone!

Annie was an excellent guide who lives locally and had good knowledge of the history of the area.
In particular she told us some fascinating facts that you wouldn’t find in guide books. She was an absolute delight and we are very grateful to her for a wonderful tour and for her restaurant recommendation!
Gemma_B, Sep 2024
We enjoyed very much our tour with Eric. As a local from Hoian he shared with us his vast knowledge about history, culture and traditions. He treated us with a wonderful cold herbal tea and gave us recommendations about the “not to miss” dishes from Hoian’s local cuisine. Eric, mission accomplished! We tried them all and loved them!
We highly recommend this your with Eric, it is a nice walk through ancient city and the boat tour is a nice break.
Vincent_C, Feb 2024
We loved the guided tour around the old town with the local knowledge of our tour guide HNI. She provided us with the history of the town developed over the centuries. Experienced the local food and the folklore theatre. Finishing off on a boat ride on the river with lanterns (a must at night).

Cette excursion hors des sentiers battus nous a permis de découvrir une autre facette de la ville. Notre guide (Eric) était très bon, joyeux et attentif. Nous avons beaucoup appris sur la culture des gens normaux et sur l'histoire du pays.
