Instead of buying a souvenir, we made one during Lantern Boat Experience. The lantern is foldable and easy to pack. It was slightly warm in the workshop, so dress comfortably.
Lantern Boat Ride was a lovely evening activity. The boat ride felt calm and slightly private. Booking ahead during peak season is recommended.
Boat Tour in Hoi An felt personal because we created our own lantern. The process takes about an hour, so plan your schedule well. Great for anyone who enjoys hands-on activities.
The instructor was patient and kind, gently helping fix small mistakes. The boat ride at night was the highlight. Bring your camera for amazing photos.
