My journey to the local wharf in Camthanh village exceeded all expectations. The boat ride along the picturesque coast of Cua Dai was a breathtaking experience. Additionally, witnessing the daily work of the local fishing team was a true eye-opener.

I had such an amazing time exploring the local wharf in Cam than village. The whole experience was simply incredible. From hopping on a boat and gliding along the stunning coast of Cua Dai, to witnessing the skillful maneuvers of the fishermen, it was truly mesmerizing. And I suppose, Duy Hai local fishing market was a hidden gem. I couldn’t have asked for a more enriching experience.

Just returned from the Hoi An Sunset Tour and I cannot recommend it enough! I had the opportunity to witness local fishermen preparing for their night voyage in the peaceful atmosphere of Van Lang Hamlet. The highlight of the tour was rowing a bamboo basket boat and sipping a drink while watching the stunning sunset over central Vietnam. It was a unique and emotional experience that I will never forget.

Participating in catching fish with the fishermen was a unique and thrilling experience. Learning to paddle the bamboo basket boats, tung chai – not sure whether i spell it right, was fun. The tour ended on a high note as we enjoyed beers, snacks, and Vietnamese tea on the boat. The tour guide was knowledgeable and ensured our safety and comfort. I highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking an authentic experience.

What I liked about this tour were the local tour guides, who spoke both English and Vietnamese fluently. They deeply understood the local history, culture, and traditions and enthusiastically shared their insights. I could even understand some of Vietnamese. So professional!
