Khu di tích lịch sử văn hóa Rừng Dừa Bảy Mẫu — Local services in Hội An

We came to this place for the coconut boat ride. On our way to this place, we were accosted by a lady who had a boating service here. She followed us to this place. Not the best experience. She quoted a price of 200K VND for 2 pax initially but we were able to get it down to 150K VND. I am pretty sure it could have been brought down further to 120K VND but I wasn’t in the mood. Pro tip, aggressively bargain here the stated price isn’t final. There’s no need to buy tickets in advance, you can come here and bargain hard. We had to wait at the pier for 10-15 minutes and then the two of us went for the boat ride. They gave us the straw hats to protect from the sun and midway through the ride we had a life jacket on. The ride lasted for about 40-45 minutes and its worth it. Although when we went, the sun was at its strongest so we did get scorched. We had our scooty parked in the lady’s parking plot right beside the pier. Its a fun boar ride and I would recommend making the trip here. Expect to spend not more than a couple...

DO NOT COME HERE! AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!

AVOID the Duc Vinh Tran group as they are a bunch of money hungry scammers! We got charged a lot more than what it should be, only because my partner is non Asian.

All through the boat trip, the boat rowing people kept making rude remarks about us in Vietnamese and would only shut their mouth when i started speaking Viet back to them! The guy that took us around, Thanh, was making me feel extremely uncomfortable as he was behaving in such a disrespectful manner towards us while repeatedly asking for money!

Adding to that, these people wouldn't let us get off the boat without tipping them... after paying a ridiculous amount already!

This is a tourist trap and is not worth it at all.

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!!

Save your money and spend it on something better,...

PLEASE DO NOT COME HERE!!! They will rip you off. They don’t have official ticket prices. When I came, they asked me to sit down, then a lady came and whispered to my ear that the ticket for one person is 350,000vnd. I came with my boyfriend, so it was 700,000vnd for both of us, which is ridiculously pricey for Monday afternoon. They will give you a ride on a boat for 30-40 minutes. They forced you to watch the performance and asked you to tip them. If you don’t tip, they will tell you sob stories that they don’t get paid enough, they have to take med since they have to stir the boat around everyday, etc. I had to listen to their sob stories for the whole time sitting on the boat. WORST EXPERIENCE IN HOI AN. Be careful if you’re a foreigner, they will give you a super high ticket price. Please don’t...
