5.00Got picked up and driven to location with care. Driver slowed down to allow pictures of rice fields and buffalo. Greeted and given bottle water. Mr Vu provided clear directions. Boat driver was strong elderly lady that help get the perfect photos. Perfect amount of time on water and umbrella provided when the sun broke out from the clouds.

5.00Nice hike, lasts about 1 hour, the boat is quaint, but the forest of water palms is a sight. The tour to date costs 80k each so do not be fooled by hotels or online services. Easy to reach from both An Bang and Hoi An in 5 minutes by scooter
