We will return to Danang and Hoi An. An exceptional tour.

From pick up at the port to timely drop off, our day with Eric and our driver was excellent. Eric was energetic and knowledgeable. He loved his country and his city and he shared this with us. We learned about the history and visited both historic and modern sites. Our visit to Hoi A was especially valuable. It is a UNESCO site and the information regarding the yearly flooding and the yearly repairs was interesting. It would have been good, if time had allowed, to spend more time there. It was a busy, day but so worth the experience. Eric took many photos for us and sent his pictures to us. Our driver was great at finding places to pick us up and drop us off. Always there when needed. Thank you Eric for your warm and friendly manner. You made our day exceptional. We also appreciated the excellent communication with Eric and Maximus Travel prior to the tour and the follow-up via WhatsApp. We booked 4 Vietnam tours directly with this company and would use them again.

Our guide Mr Ha was very knowledgeable and such a pleasant person. He answered all our questions and was flexible as the four of us disrupted his planned schedule. I would recommend both him and this tour.

Action packed day!

Fantastic day with our enthusiastic and energetic guide, Anthony, and our safe driver. We saw so many things in very little port time, and we learned a lot from Anthony along the way. Definitely take this tour if you want to make the most out of a short Chan May cruise stop!

Danang and Hoi An

Amazing pagodas, Budda statues, huge Lady Budda, Budda's disciples, local coffee and tea stop' Marble Mountains, Hoi An town, river basket ride, silk workshop and much more. Our guide, Han, in addition to being very informative, was also very friendly. He gave us a lot of insights into Vietnamese history, family life, past and modern culture and modern-day lifestyles. Talking with him on a range of subjects was a real highlight of this tour. This was an outstanding tour - one of the best we have ever taken!
