Hoi An Ghosts & Secrets

The walk lasts about two hours and starts at 6:00 PM, so you are finished in good time for dinner in the Ancient Town. It is an evening tour, which is very much the point, as the lanes feel completely different after dark.

You meet your guide at a central point on Tran Hung Dao Street, a short walk from most hotels in the Ancient Town. The exact meeting point is confirmed before your tour.

It is a gentle walk with no difficult ground, but the content covers death, spirits and local beliefs, so it suits older children and adults more than young ones. If you are travelling as a family, our other Hoi An tours may be a better fit for younger children.

No, this one is a walking tour that meets centrally rather than a private transfer trip, so you make your own way to the meeting point. If you would rather be collected, we can arrange a private transfer as part of a wider planned itinerary.

Comfortable walking shoes and weather-appropriate clothing, plus an umbrella or a light raincoat if rain is likely. You are on your feet on uneven old streets for a couple of hours, so sensible footwear matters more than anything else.

Yes, the walk is led by an English-speaking local guide. The storytelling is the heart of this tour, so having a guide who grew up with these legends is what makes it worth doing.
