Superb experience of Da Nang and Hoi An
James, Quan, gave us a wonderful experience of these 2 locations. We feel that we engaged in responsible tourism through this organisation. The highlight is Cam Kim island and James arranged everything from the boat rides, the bicycle hire, the rice noodle making and mat making visits inside the homes of generous locals. The boat making and carpentry (wood carving) skills in that community were worth witnessing. James English is exceptionally good, so good that joking and playing with expressions were part of the fun. The tour of Da Nang was very good, affording views of the beaches and Lady Buddha. The driver and vehicle were top of the line, excellent service. Flexible and personal. We really appreciated everything that James showed us at a pace perfect for us. The coffee and the food will always be remembered as exceptionally good. This is the tour company to use for Da Nang and Hoi An. — Traveller: KGGardner from Tripadvisor
XuanTu’s tours excellent.
We contacted XuanTu and she was very helpful setting up our tour of Danang and Hoi An for the one day we had there on our Azamara Journey cruise. The price of a private tour for the two of us was about the same as what we would have paid with the cruise line but you are not having to be in a large bus in a group of 40 people. She was not available to guide us but she set us up with a nice young man named Quan. We were met at the ship and He was an excellent guide, very knowledgable of his country and enthusiastic in showing us everything. Hoi An is a beautiful old city that is fascinating and very photogenic. We also enjoyed Marble Mountain and Lady Buddha. Despite it being a rainy afternoon we had a great day seeing the sights with Quan and highly recommend XuanTu’s private tours. Quan …. thanks for the great tour, your friendship and the coffee in Danang. See you again some day. — Traveller: Orphan L from Tripadvisor

Great 2 days in Hoi An
We loved our tours with Danang Private Tours. On our first day in Hoi An, James took us on an adventure to Cam Kim island. We learned so much about the history of Vietnam and the day to day lives of people in the countryside surrounding Hoi An. After our bike ride, he led us around the city of Hoi An, giving us tips on how to bargain with local merchants and showing us many of the charming shops and sites. This visit wholly shaped our experience in Vietnam. We loved the tour so much that we booked another tour with Danang Private Tours. Tommy led our second tour – a half day trip to My Son – where we learned about Vietnam’s ethnic diversity and Champa history. Tommy answered our endless questions about Vietnam and its people. His English was superb and he had a great sense of humor. We loved our time with him so much we asked him if he could take our family out for some karaoke. 🙂 For both Tommy and James, their English was great and their demeanor was incredibly warm and welcoming. Many jokes, great food, lots of laughs. I highly recommend Danang Private Tours. Julie, Maren, Bryn and Molly McMullan — Traveller: FunJulie from Tripadvisor
Amazing Hoi An tour guide and tour!!!
Can honestly say that Lam is the best tour guide we have ever experienced throughout South East Asia and Australia. He was extremely knowledgeable, attentive and inclusive to all in the group. Lam openly engaged and entertained our 11yr old daughter and 13 year old son, no easy task. His personality, humour and love for his country and people was clear throughout the whole day. Our side trip to the rural Cam Kim Island allowed us to cycle through rice fields and communities to absorb more of what Vietnam is all about. The 2 families we visited on the Island openingly welcomed our family of 4 into theirs. We were able to observe and all participate in making rice paper and noodles in two separate homes. The idea that our tour went a small way to helping those families was a great feeling for us and also to Lam. Lam was willing to take photos of our family at any attraction. Everything ran smoothly, Lam was early for our hotel pickup, in between excursions we did not have to wait for our driver or boats. His knowledge of Hoi An was amazing and love for his job (Da NAng and Hoi An) was truly apparent. The best tour ever. — Traveller: Geoffrey B from Tripadvisor
