Description

On the Hoai River by the Hoi An old town world heritage, every night, many sampans carry people downstream and upstream. What are “lantern boats”? Simply, the name comes from the creativity of locals: using silk lanterns to decorate the boats.

You can release paper lanterns lit by candle to the water and then make wishes or pray for beloved persons. A meaningful video or photo can be created to save Hoi An's signature activity. Along the waterfronts, there are old ladies selling shimmering lotus-shaped lanterns, giving great content for photography. Lantern boat rides on the Hoai River are unforgettable.

After the boat, explore the city's bustling night market. Learn all about the city's traditional culture and stretch your legs in its picturesque Old Town (by yourself)

* One boat can share 1-4 people, combine with other participants
* Duration: 20 minutes
* 19:00 to 20:00 is peak time, so booking during this time frame will require waiting in line to board the boat.
* Please go to the meeting point and tell the greeter your name. She will wait at the meeting point and take you to the boat ride area.
