Hoi An Night Boat Ride with Floating Lanterns

After dark, Hoi An’s riverside glows with hundreds of silk lanterns, and the best place to see them is from the water. On this short private ride a local boat owner rows you along the river in a small wooden boat, painted in bright colours, while the old town’s lights reflect around you.

You are given a paper lantern with a candle to set floating on the river, a local custom said to bring good luck. It is a simple, gentle experience and a lovely way to end a day in the old town.
