Highly Recommend for a Deeper Look into Hoi An’s Culture - John is a truly charismatic and engaging tour guide who brings the spirit of Hoi An to life. Throughout the tour, he shares fascinating insights and heartfelt stories about the local people, their history, and their culture. It’s clear that he has a deep connection with the community, which adds a personal and authentic touch to the experience. The tour itself is thoughtfully planned and well-organized, with a smooth flow from one stop to the next. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to go beyond the typical tourist experience and gain a genuine understanding of how the people of Hoi An live, work, and preserve their traditions on a daily basis.

The best trip ever of our Vietnam adventure - We loved our afternoon with John, experiencing the areas of Hoi An you don’t normally get to see.
He was highly informative, polite and funny. We weren’t rushed and we were able to take things at our pace.
We rode on the back of motorcycles and having experienced the traffic in taxis, we thought it would be daunting. But John and his friend were extremely cautious and rode very safely. We had a fun afternoon, doing things we have never done before - pottery making, riding buffalo, fishing, helping on the farm, and visiting a coffee factory.
We can honestly say this was the highlight of our trip to Vietnam. Well done John, it was a privilege to meet you!!

Hoi An Bike ride with John ⭐️ - This tour was fabulous! John was an excellent guide and very informative from start to finish. We had a lovely bike ride through the local villages and then a very entertaining trip on the basket boats which was lots of fun. We then headed over to the veggie garden for great cooking class and tasty snacks and lunch! Lovely food! We learnt a lot abt Vietnamese farming and had lots of laughs! Would not hesitate to recommend John to anyone, great English skills and would give him more than 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ rating if we could! Well done John you made our trip to Hoi An a very enjoyable one! 😀

Highly Recommend - John had so so so much information about all of the various stops and history behind each stop. He also took the time to curate the tour of Hoi A villages and families towards our interests. He was also prepared with everything you could possibly need, from hand sanitizer to water and that in between. I highly recommend taking a tour of Hoi An outside of the old town/lantern city to learn about the arts that bring the town to life with John.
