Overview
Your guide and driver will meet you at the port to transfer you to Hoi An.
From the port, your tour will depart for Thanh Ha Pottery Village where you can learn about and take part in the daily life of Thanh Ha people. Thanh Ha Pottery Village has over 500 years of history from the establishing period up to the present day. With the gifted hands of the craftsmen, they create the products with different shapes. Here, we will observe the necessary steps used for producing the incredible pottery products such as vases, pots and kettles.
After learning about the pottery making, you will visit Thanh Ha Terra Cotta Park museum. The museum is a continuous shift where past, present and future influence each other. From here you cruise back to Hoi An ancient town, disembark the boat and enjoy a delicious lunch with local specialties.
After lunch, you will enjoy a visit via cyclo to Hoi An Museum, many of the town’s renowned Ancient Houses which boast remarkable architecture, Assembly Halls of Chinese influence, Art Craft Manufacturing Workshop, and of course the must-see Japanese Covered Bridge.
These spots are considered as typical architecture styles in Hoi An and reflect clearly the cross culture among France, Japan, China and Vietnam. Passing over hundreds of years and withstanding the severity of the weather, Hoi An still exists and keeps the ancient and quiet beauty. Sitting on a cyclo, discover the quiet and peaceful beauty. You are free to do some shopping before your return transfer to your cruise ship.
