Really recommend the Hoi An Countryside Bike tour - We took the Hoi An Countryside Bike Tour and we really enjoyed the trip. The ride itself didn’t require any effort and we had multiple stops on the way to see and learn things (and to get refreshments). From history to how life and work looked like in the nearby villages. We learnt how rice was used, how to make noodles from them, how they worshipped their dead, how to make your own carpet and create your own amulet. Our guide was very friendly and eager (and happy) to guide us. We were a small party of only 3 persons and thus we got time to ask him about life and history in general. It was really one of our favorite tours on our trip to Vietnam, next to a cooking class we had the day before. Really recommend this tour.

Andy made us fall in love with Hoi An! - Booking the Hoi An tour with Andy was a fantastic decision. We booked a three-day private tour of Hoi An including My Son, Marble Mountains and Hue. We got the best service at a competitive price (compared to other group tours) A huge shout out to our wonderful guide, Ms. Dan and our driver Mr. Chi for their excellent service. Andy's team had a unique itinerary compared to the other tours I researched. First, we went to the coconut jungle and enjoyed a basket boat ride. During the boat ride, we tried our hand at fishing for crabs - it's harder than it looks (we sent the crabs back to the water after taking pictures) it was a unique experience. Next, we went to a lantern making class, which we thoroughly enjoyed. We got to take the lanterns we made back home - what a lovely souvenir. Following this, we went to the local vegetable farm and helped the local gardeners plant some vegetables. She was jovial and lively even in the scorching climate. We were glad to receive some gardening tips from Ms. Dan and the local gardener. The tour included lunch which was simply amazing. We went to a vegan restaurant for lunch and tried a plethora of Vietnamese delicacies. I'm sure the taste of these yummy dishes will linger on our tongues for a long time. After lunch, we went to the pottery village and tried our hand at traditional pottery. It was a fabulous experience. My five year old daughter enjoyed making a pot and painting it. We were pleasantly surprised to receive terracotta gifts as a part of our ticket. After the pottery village, we went to the magnificent Hoi An ancient town. Our guide Ms Dan told us many stories and legends about this mesmerizing place which will stay with us for a long time. The boat ride alongside the colorful lanterns was the perfect grand finale for the tour. Andy doesn't just make you experience Hoi An, he makes you fall in love with it. I highly recommend booking this tour with Andy.

FANTASTIC Tour of the Village - Fantastic tour. Got to see some wonderful places and hands on experience with pottery and the gardens. The buffalo ride was great. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. He was full of knowledge and very helpful as the heat got to me this day. Restaurant food was delicious. I think the highlight of the day was the round boats. You won’t want to miss this tour.

Short and fun tour - What a lovely way to get an insight into the historical aspects of the old town whilst combining it with a tourist shop Mr Kong our tour guide speaks exceptional English- was extremely patient with explaining things to young kids and did a good job at bartering for us. He tailored the trip to suit us and what we wanted to experience
