Trip Itinerary
Swap Hoi An’s old streets for the coconut forest of Cam Thanh on a short riverside experience built around the traditional basket boat. The appeal is the change of pace: water, village scenery and local life rather than another landmark checklist. Check the route below to see exactly what is included.
