Hoi An Lantern Making and Coconut Forest Basket Boat Experience

Experience two of Hoi An’s most iconic traditions in one fun and memorable activity. Instead of simply sightseeing, you’ll get hands-on with local culture, from paddling a traditional basket boat through the peaceful coconut forest to creating your own beautiful Hoi An lantern. Cruise along coconut-lined waterways, learn basic basket boat paddling techniques and enjoy lively local entertainment, including the famous basket boat spinning performance, traditional fishing-net casting and folk singing. With lush scenery and plenty of beautiful photo opportunities, the coconut forest is also a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the fresh countryside atmosphere. Then visit a local lantern workshop, where a friendly instructor will guide you step by step through the lantern-making process. The experience can be adapted to different skill levels, making it ideal for beginners, couples, families and groups looking for an authentic and interactive Hoi An experience.
