Your journey begins at 1:00 -2:00 PM with a convenient hotel pickup in Da Nang, where your friendly guide welcomes you for a relaxing drive to the peaceful Bay Mau Coconut Forest.

Here, you’ll step aboard a traditional bamboo basket boat, rowed by experienced local villagers through winding waterways surrounded by lush water coconut palms. This is more than just a boat ride—it’s an interactive cultural moment. Try creating small handicrafts such as rings, watches, or grasshoppers made from coconut leaves, a fun activity that travelers of all ages enjoy. As the afternoon light softens, the forest becomes a dreamlike backdrop—perfect for capturing unforgettable photos and golden-hour memories.

As evening approaches, continue to Hoi An Ancient Town, where a carefully selected local restaurant awaits you. Enjoy a flavorful dinner showcasing two of the town’s most iconic dishes: Cao lầu and Hội An chicken rice. These specialties embody the unique culinary heritage of Hoi An, shaped by centuries of Chinese, Japanese, and Vietnamese influences. After dinner, stroll through the lantern-lit streets of the UNESCO-listed old town with your guide. Along the way, admire historic highlights including the iconic Japanese Covered Bridge, the beautifully preserved Tan Ky Ancient House, and the ornate Fujian Assembly Hall—each telling a story of the town’s rich trading heritage.

One of the most memorable moments of the evening is releasing a floating lantern on the serene Hoai River. As the lantern drifts gently across the water, you’ll join a timeless local tradition of sending wishes into the night. ( OPTION 2 included)

The experience continues with free time to explore the vibrant Nguyen Hoang Night Market. Wander among colorful stalls, sample authentic street snacks like crispy rice pancakes, clam salad, or sweet tofu pudding, or browse for handcrafted lanterns and tailored silk garments. Unlike rushed group tours, this itinerary includes ample time to explore at your own pace, soak in the romantic lantern atmosphere, and truly experience the charm of Hoi An after sunset.

At around 8:00 PM, relax on the comfortable return transfer to Da Nang, where you’ll be dropped off at your hotel—ending an evening filled with culture, flavors, and unforgettable moments. A perfect choice for travelers looking to experience the culture, cuisine, and romance of Hoi An in one unforgettable evening
