Fun family activities to explore in Hoi An

Ride a cyclo around the Ancient Town

Hop on a cyclo and slowly roll through the lantern-lit streets of the Old Town. It’s a charming and relaxing way to admire centuries-old houses, moss-covered tiled roofs, and picture-perfect corners ideal for family photos. For kids, this traditional mode of transport is both safe and exciting – offering a fun, hands-on way to learn about local culture.

The friendly cyclo drivers often share fascinating stories about old Hoi An, turning a simple ride into a warm and engaging journey. 

Discover Hoi An’s unique cuisine

No trip to Hoi An is complete without exploring its renowned culinary scene. Sharing local dishes as a family is a delightful experience from the chewy noodles of cao lau, crispy fried wontons, to the famous Phuong’s banh mi and golden mi Quang. Every bite tells a story, crafted with love and precision by the people of Hoi An.

Many restaurants also offer kid-friendly cooking classes, where little ones can roll up their sleeves and make traditional Vietnamese dishes – a fun, educational activity that the whole family can enjoy and remember.

Visit The Hoi An Lune Center

To dive deeper into Vietnamese culture in an exciting and modern way, don’t miss the Hoi An Lune Center. Their shows blend circus arts, contemporary dance, and traditional music, captivating both adults and children alike.

The venue itself is a work of art, designed in the shape of a traditional conical hat, located right in the heart of Hoi An. It’s a cultural experience that is immersive and elegantly memorable.

Enjoy a night boat ride on the Hoai River

Hoi An at night is a spectacle of shimmering lights and reflections. One of the most magical ways to take it all in is by taking a boat ride along the Hoai River. As the sun sets, lanterns light up the water, and your family can join locals in releasing flower lanterns, each carrying a wish for peace and happiness.

For children, gently floating on a small boat, holding their parents’ hands, and watching their lantern drift away will be a sweet memory for years to come.
