Overview

Hoi An is a city on Vietnam’s central coast known for its well-preserved ancient town, cut through by a canal.

The former port city is a melting pot of history which is reflected in its architecture, with a mixture of eras and styles. From wooden Chinese shophouses and temples to colourful French colonial buildings, ornate Vietnamese tube houses and the iconic Japanese Covered Bridge with its pagoda which is a rare find in Southeast Asia; for such a small city, Hoi An really has it all.

On a week-long Hoi An trip, you'll be introduced to the diverse culture of Central Vietnam and uncover the truths of why this region of Vietnam is so special, and how it differs from the rest of the country. From pristine beaches to delicious seafood and ancient temples, Central Vietnam will put a smile on your face!
