An experience I will cherish forever! Tim guided us beautifully through the evening, sharing not only his deep knowledge of Vietnamese history but also his own moving personal story. Even though we talked about serious topics, we laughed a lot along the way. I wholeheartedly recommend this cocktail experience. Thank you again, Tim, for sharing your story and creating such an unforgettable evening for us!

If you are looking for an unforgettable evening in Hoi An, book this tour immediately. We visited four distinct stops, and every single one delivered top-notch, exceptionally creative cocktails that went far beyond the standard menu fare.
What truly elevated the entire night was our guide, Tim. Beyond knowing the craft and stories behind every spot we visited, he was fantastic company—incredibly knowledgeable, easygoing, and just genuinely fun to talk to. Our conversations flowed effortlessly from local history and current events to universal philosophy between drinks. It felt less like a scripted excursion and more like exploring hidden gems with a great friend.
An excellent tour from start to finish. Highly recommended!
Fantastic tour, Tim was sensational, so knowledgeable and friendly. We had a great night, thank you.
We had a great time, learnt a lot about the history and Tim was able to answer any questions we had about Vietnam. Such a blast.
Probably my favorite thing I did in Hoi An. Out guide and the cocktails were amazing! Such a fun time with great drinks at places you would never find otherwise!
We had THE BEST TIME with Tinh, he was an amazing guide not only to unique local spots but also was fun and interesting and told us all about local culture. We had four great cocktails at different unique local places which were also all delicious. Very great tour for anyone visiting Hoi An and I would highly recommend.
The secret cocktail experience in Hoi An with Tim was amazing! All of the cocktails were great and in bars/speakeasy’s that would hard to find on your own. Each drink was so different and delicious with little snacks along the way. Tim was an amazing guide! He was very knowledgeable about all the history of the places and Vietnam and answered any questions we had! I would 100% recommend doing this experience!
Great evening. Temh was a superb tour guide with a warm, fun & solid ability to communicate the history of the cocktails we drank, the locations we drank the cocktail & the overall history of Vietnam. Would give ten thumbs up if I had ten thumbs!
This was one of the best experiences we have had. Tim was outstanding and the conversation was all so interesting along with the amazing cocktails and snacks. So much fun. Highly recommend.
Ky was a fantastic guide, we really enjoyed our time with him. The cocktails were also delicious! We would recommend this tour to everyone!
We had an amazing time doing the Secret Cocktail experience in Hoi An, and Tim really made the night what it was. He kept us entertained and engaged the whole evening, and we loved hearing all the history and stories about Hoi An and Vietnam along the way.
The experience itself was so unique. We got to visit some really cool hidden spots and try custom cocktails that you definitely wouldn’t get if you just walked into these places on your own. Every stop also came with small bites, and honestly, the food was really good too.
This ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. Huge thanks to Tim for such a fun, memorable night. Would highly recommend!
This was an amazing experience. Tim was such a great host! He was extremely knowledgeable but also funny. I learned so much about Vietnam history and culture.
Not only that but our group was able to go to spots and try cocktails only crafted for the tour. I honestly would do it again
Tim did an outstanding job. My daughter and I did the tour and it has been the highlight of our trip. We cannot recommend the tour (great cocktails) and Tim (an amazing guide) enough. Absolutely the best thing we have done on our trip to Hoi An.
Loan was a great guide and we had the great time with her and the group on the tour. If you’re in Hoi An and want a fun activity I would recommend trying this out. We went to some places that had special cocktails for the tour and Loan gives great insight to the area and recommendations on what else to try in the area.
We loved our cocktail tour! Thank you so much to Ky for sharing his personal stories with us, the history of the country and Hoi An. Genuinely interesting to learn about the history in more detail and his own life stories, over tasty cocktails. Ky was genuine and lovely guy, we thoroughly enjoyed this experience. The hidden and secret locations off the beaten track are second to none and spots we never would have ventured to ourselves. Highly recommend :)
Tim was a great guide and very knowledgeable! Perfect experience and would highly recommend to anyone visiting Hoi An
It’s a great way to meet some people and find secret bars up little alleyways and staircases. Tim was a knowledgeable and interesting guide.
Hang was the best guide! So knowledgeabke, kind, and funny! She had excellent recommendations for restaurants and drinks in Hoi An. The tour was so much fun going to secret, hidden bars and she had gave us lots of facts & insight into both Hoi An and Vietnam.
We had such a great time with Loan. Everything was delicious, the places we visited were special, and we learned so much about the cocktails and about Vietnam. Mot, hai, ba, vo!
Great experience, fab cocktails at really interesting places off the main tourist areas. Loan our guide was excellent, knowledgeable and fun! we loved it and met some very lovely people
It was really fun, informative, and different. Tim was a great guide and answered all the questions.
Had a great evening tasting incredible local cocktails in fabulous unusual places. Lovely snacks roo! Going to do this tour in ho chi minh too! Made some new friends which is always good
We loved this tour!! Our guide Tim was friendly and knowledgeable sharing both history and stories of the culture of ancient town and taking us to several spots we would have never found on our own. Absolutely recommend this fun and unique experience!!
We had an incredible time. Our guide was well spoken and had extensive knowledge of the drinks we tried. I highly recommend this tour.
An experience I will cherish forever! Tim guided us beautifully through the evening, sharing not only his deep knowledge of Vietnamese history but also his own moving personal story. Even though we talked about serious topics, we laughed a lot along the way. I wholeheartedly recommend this cocktail experience. Thank you again, Tim, for sharing your story and creating such an unforgettable evening for us!
What an incredible evening! Tim is an absolute wealth of knowledge and had so many interesting stories for us. The cocktails are delicious and I had a brilliant time on this tour!
We loved our experience with Loan. All 4 cocktails and snack were delicious and in places we would never have known to go. Loan was informative, intelligent and a pleasure to spend 3 hours with. We also felt the value was excellent and the experience was a wonderful one.
Tricky one to review. Tinh our guide was brilliant. The 4 cocktails and snacks were all really good. Everything was enjoyable. Just felt it was slightly overpriced given that it’s happy hour in all these places during these times. Feel like it should be 20-30% less based on other things we have done here. Still, had a nice time and went to places we would not have found on our own.
Great cocktail tour! Our host Tim was a lovely guy who told us a lot about the cocktails but also about the history of Vietnam. He brought us to hidden gems in the old town. It’ shows that you need to go through all the small alleys to find the good stuff. It’s a great night out would really recommend this to anyone!
This was our first experience this time around, and it did not disappoint. Tim was our tour guide, and he was a pure story teller, making this tour so much more interesting. There were four cocktail stops along the way, all accompanied by a little something to nibble on. It was a small group, only eight altogether, so it felt quite intimate and inclusive. Definitely recommend this experience, and I still think Tim should hit the road as a comedian...he is a funny and engaging guy.
What a fun experience! Tim was a great guide, very informative about the area. We enjoyed all the drinks and snacks. Everyone was friendly. Highly recommend.
