Hoi An Full-Day Private Vespa Tour – Cam Kim Island, An Bang Beach & Thu Bon River Villages Led By Women
See a different side of Hoi An from the back of a private Vespa on a full-day journey led by a Vietnamese woman. This route leaves the busiest tourist streets behind and explores Cam Kim Island, An Bang Beach, Cam An, Thu Bon River communities, local markets and rural lanes, combining coastal scenery, village life, traditional food and quiet countryside roads. The Vespa makes it possible to move naturally between small roads and locations that are difficult to experience by larger vehicles.
ITINERARY
Part 1 – Morning Vespa Ride to Cam Kim Island
Meet your Vietnamese female Vespa driver and guide at your hotel and begin the morning ride toward Cam Kim Island. Cross away from the central Hoi An area and enter a quieter landscape of rice fields, gardens, ponds and traditional homes.
Ride along narrow island roads and stop at selected viewpoints overlooking the countryside. Your guide introduces local farming practices and explains how island communities remain connected to the Thu Bon River and Hoi An’s historic trading economy.
Part 2 – Kim Bong Village & Riverside Craftsmanship
Continue to Kim Bong Carpentry Village, a traditional craft community on the Thu Bon River. Explore family workshops where artisans continue working with wood to produce furniture, boats, decorative objects and architectural details.
Walk through the village lanes and observe the contrast between small workshops, traditional homes and the surrounding river landscape. The Vespa ride between the workshops provides an opportunity to see everyday island life rather than simply visiting a single attraction.
Part 3 – Rural Roads, Rice Fields & Local Market
Leave Kim Bong and ride deeper into the countryside. Follow smaller roads between rice paddies, vegetable gardens and village homes, stopping for photographs when the scenery is particularly attractive.
Visit a local market where residents shop for vegetables, herbs, seafood, fruit and prepared foods. Your guide explains ingredients commonly used in central Vietnamese cooking and introduces some of the everyday foods found in Hoi An households.
Part 4 – An Bang Beach & Coastal Villages
Continue east toward An Bang Beach and the surrounding coastal communities. Ride through Cam An, passing local cafés, family homes, gardens and small businesses before reaching the beach.
Take a relaxed walk along An Bang Beach and observe the contrast between the sandy coastline and the agricultural villages visited earlier. Enjoy a local lunch nearby featuring central Vietnamese specialties such as Mi Quang, Cao Lau, grilled seafood, fresh herbs and seasonal vegetables.
Part 5 – Thu Bon River Backroads & Hidden Villages
After lunch, leave the main coastal road and ride through lesser-known communities around the Thu Bon River. Follow quiet lanes beside rice fields, canals, gardens and riverside homes.
Stop at a small village café for Vietnamese coffee and spend time observing local life. Depending on the season, you may see farmers working in the fields, fishing boats returning with their catch or residents transporting agricultural products between villages.
Part 6 – Sunset Vespa Ride Back to Hoi An
Begin the final ride toward Hoi An using a scenic combination of countryside and riverside roads. Pass through agricultural areas as the afternoon light creates changing views over the rice fields and waterways.
Make a final photo stop near the river before riding back toward Hoi An. Return to your hotel after a full day exploring Cam Kim Island, Kim Bong Village, rural markets, An Bang Beach, Cam An and the Thu Bon River countryside.
