Itinerary

Traveling to Hoi An Old Town will allow you to experience a variety of natural beauties and handicrafts in addition to learning about the unique features of the historic town. About 5 kilometers to the southeast of Hoi An is Cam Thanh Coconut Village (Bay Mau Coconut Village). The Coconut Village is a popular destination for tourists from Hoi An and other locations to visit and explore because of its airy, spacious, wide area and lovely water coconut palm forest. Particularly when traveling to Hoi An from Cam Thanh coconut village, you can imagine yourself exploring the Mekong Delta region of South Vietnam.

Cam Thanh Coconut Village has the city’s most intricate waterway system. It is surrounded by four rivers that are linked by smaller canals. Palm groves, gardens, and rice paddies are nourished well by fertile alluvia and year-round fresh water. It is not surprising that people have lived here for more than 2,000 years. The primary sources of income for people are still farming and fishing as of today.

HOI AN BOAT TOUR

CAM THANH COCONUT VILLAGE HOI AN TOUR

8:00 AM or 1:00 PM: Our private car and tour guide will pick you up at your Hue hotel in the morning before we begin our journey from Hoi An to Cam Thanh coconut village.

Here, to discover its beauty, you can take a basket boat (Thung Chai) trip through the coconut forest and discover more about the community and daily life of Vietnamese fishermen. The people of Hoi An Coconut Village make a living by weaving fishing nets, making basket boats, making coconut objects, building houses out of palm leaves, and harvesting edible bird nests. The coconut forest has been home to many aquatic species for generations such as fish, shrimp, crabs and even animals’ soft body. In addition to defending the Cham Islands World Biosphere Reserve from the sea’s waves, it has shielded the Cam Thanh inhabitants.

Additionally, locals will show you how to paddle the distinctive bamboo basket boat used only in Vietnam. You will hear tales of earlier conflicts and the trying circumstances that soldiers faced. It was a bloody battleground. Quang Nam’s Cam Thanh people were renowned as the “land of steel” during the war, fighting the enemy to secure the nation’s independence.

During the trip, the boatman will collect coconut leaves and use them to fashion amusing natural ornaments such as hats, rings, and glasses. It’s fantastic for you. You will undoubtedly experience the sensation of floating on the waves of water and will participate in an equally enjoyable basket boat race between the baskets in the cheering and bustling music drum.

Participate in river fishing with locals and get experience with cast or round nets. Passengers are permitted to attempt the catchings on their own, under the guidance of locals. Undoubtedly, having fun on the water before landing is very common. Learn more about life and people while also learning how to take attractive photos.

Following that, you will have lunch at a local restaurant (optional). Before saying goodbye to your hosts and returning to the hotel, take a moment to unwind and take in your surroundings.

After exploring amazing places at Cam Thanh Coconut Village, the private car will take you back to your hotel in Hue city, where we will say our goodbyes!

  Unforgettable experience at Ha Long Bay
Unforgettable experience. Robert took us to a private lagoon where we kayaked around. Then he took us to a cave and showed us all the stalagmite formations. We had an amazing lunch on the boat as well. Refreshments and fruit after each excursion was very satisfying.

  Thank you Robert!!!
Robert was an amazing guide with so much knowledge about Nimh Binh and the history of Vietnam. This helped us make connections to the creation of the country with what we were physically seeing, ultimately allowing us to appreciate the land. The tour was well balanced with activity and rest, and the local meal was so delicious! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a day trip away from the city 🙂
