Hoi An is hands down one of my favorite places on earth. I am so proud of the locals for keeping the character of the town. To have a walkable town with no mega chain restaurant in sight is such an underrated treat
Hoi An is "one of those places that conjures up daydreams of an ideal far away land - exotic, beautiful, and seemingly right out of a fairy tale." The beautiful, enchanting, colorful town makes you feel like you are taking a step back in time. Noted as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1999, Hoi An is a magical place. Just go and see this place . . . there is no equal globally.
On my first visit to Vietnam, I was only planning on staying 2 nights in Hoi An but ended up stay for a full week.
I came back from Bangkok, Hoi An, Hue, and Da Nang trip. I agree with many people saying that Hoi An is too touristy. But I actually had the best experiences in Hoi An (and Bangkok) in this trip.
Although Hoi An in the evening is very crowded, cycling and walking around the river and old town daytime is really relaxed and people were so friendly. The beautiful lively night life is a bonus!
It is like when you go to a beach destination, you will love the quiet uncrowded beach at daytime, but will enjoy a party or a crowded night market at night.
I was lucky because many international tourists had not come back yet. The majority of tourists in Hoi An are Vietnamese now.
A restaurant owner told me that about 3,000 Chinese tourists came to Hoi An every evening before the pandemic. So, it is the best to go to Hoi An before Chinese tourists come back.
I was around Hoi An as a Marine in 1968-70. We had some fierce battles on Go Noi Island which is just west of Hoi An. We also did regular resupply of a Leper Colony that was just NE of Hoi An. Our base was at An Hoa / Phu Loc 6 and we operated all over the Dai Loc mapsheet in Quang Nam Prov.
Beautiful video. You make it look so good. I have been to Vietnam a few times. But I just stay in Hanoi and Saigon. I only ate Hainese Chicken in Hoi An when the bus stop. So this and Danang is a reason to dream of revisiting Vietnam.
Hoi An is beautiful and interesting. Thanks for sharing all the wonderful sceneries. My Vietnamese hair dresser also recommended Hoi An. We will definitely visit there on one of our yearly trips to Thailand. You must be back in Thailand by now. Hope Ms. Ploy is doing well.
Thanks Gabi! You've made Hoi An look good in your video ❤ 👍🏻 I will definitely plan a trip here 😄
I love Hoi An. Visited in 2016 and going back in two months from now. Thank you for beautiful video.
I love Hoi An. My family are Vietnamese and I have been all over Vietnam. But, I am also a history fan. So, I am crazy about Hoi. The Japanese bridge is magical.
been there before, very peaceful and relax place, get really crowded at night. i even extended one more night there because i love it so much.
Awesome video, I just went and it was flooded, made a video on my experience. Thank you for the information!
Hi Gabi. We were in Hoi An in 2013 and know how nice it is, plan to go back in 2023, Hoi An is what we remember and talk about when we think of Vietnam, but also Hanoi, Phu Quoc, Na Trang and Saigon we like to remember as lovely places. Thank you for your reports which are very useful. Take care 👋
Absolutely, probably in late February or early March. 👍😁🌞
Hello,
We were there in 2019, we arrived early in the morning before the opening of the shops, it was super peaceful...one of the most beautiful memories of Vietnam before other beautiful places around Ninh Binh 🥰
Hoi An is amazing, can't wait to visit the town when I go to Vietnam this October. Love from your neighbor, the Philippines. ❤
I visited Hoi An in 2020 just at the start of COVID and it was a bustling town full of tourists. I was looking for somewhere to retire too but felt that it was too touristy which drives the prices up. I did enjoy my time there but it is definitely not for me. Again nice video and thank you for putting in the time to make all of your videos. 😁
This was very useful, thanks! We are now considering a trip to Hoi An! Cheers!
I have lived in Hoi An for 4 years. It just keeps getting better!
Im a local in Hoian, where do youstay ? we can drink a beer :)
Best place ever, so full of culture and history! I visited before Covid and it was busy, I really hope they recover soon. Also love your videos, you are my go to travel guide! Never stop what you are doing, because you are loved by many!
Really cool again Gabi looks beautiful,,,peace and happiness
I visited this very unique and charming place in 2018. However Hoi An was so overly crowded with tourists at that time that it was nearly unenjoyable. I stayed at Hoi An Trails Resort and Spa and that was truly a fantastic place and planing to return again in the near future.
Amazing... I have this on our plan to visit on our travels - Thanks Gabi
Been there and love it. Beautiful and magical Hoi An.
I like the way you lead the story and introduce with videos about Hoi An. I much appreciated your work to promote Vietnam to the world. Love you from Hochiminh city, VN.
Thanks ✌️🇻🇳
@@ridewithgabi hi are you there right now? Are both Danang and Hoi An crowded since its summer there? I'm planning to visit
nice video! im heading to Hoi An tmr and Im looking forward to it!
Think you labelled the eve/night so nice .... it really is magical. During the day is like everyone is on siesta. The evening really perks up! I was probly around there when you shot this ... riding the same bike (did a trip south to top). Keep up the great work Gabi!!
Been following you the past few weeks as I’m also visiting Vietnam currently. It seems as I’m right behind you being able to recognize the same workers and places just a few days after you post. I’m traveling to da nang Saturday and Haiphong Tuesday. Currently in Dao Phu Quy an island south but watching your videos makes me very excited for what’s to come. Thanks Gabi, maybe if I’m lucky I’ll run into you at some point
Glad to hear that 😉 enjoy your trip in Vietnam 🇻🇳
I am here now and love it, I don't want to leave! Great vid :)
Did u stay? 😁
Love the timing of this vlog. I'm strong there tonight
Enjoy 😉
love vietnam so much, and i see your video everyday bro
Must add to my “must visit”! Thank you
Welcome from vietnam and hoi an
Haven't a good luck day my friend
Like like video❤😍😍😊
Oooh great Gabi great , i am getting mad to go there ... 👌👌👌
Hoi An is definitely my place in Vietnam 🇻🇳. We will be in January 2023 again , Hanoi, Ha Long and Da Nang . Actually I’m about to book Fivitel after watching your video. I’m registering my entrepreneurship in Dubai and will work with Vietnam also, tailoring tours and real estate assets to South American clients. Get in touch !
I'm going there in 2 weeks, can't wait...
Hi gabi, we visited Hoi An in Nov 2019 , such a beautiful place We stayed at the Belle Maison hotel. We are also going back in march 2023 to the Hoi an Odessey hotel.
love your vlog....thank you so much for sharing
Really looks fantastic 😊
That drone shot of the city is so pretty with their tiled roof. It has a European look from above with a grid system. I never heard of this place. My feeling about Vietnam was that the whole place was destroyed in the Vietnam war.. Wow! I didn't know Vietnam has something to offer like this. Also so pretty at night time. Thanks for sharing.
Vietnam was destroyed, yes, but mostly in the North & above 17th parralel where the US dropped 5 million tonnes, twice of the total of WWII, so from Da Nang towards the south it did not suffer as much destruction.
Hi Gabi... 1st thing I would like to say is, I really like your vlog style, 2nd I wonder if I am your oldest subscriber at 64? I just wanted to comment on Hoi An, I didn't get to Hoi An until my 2nd visit to Vietnam as the amount of tourist in one place was a tad frightening,( I know I am a tourist and travel to places that are set up for people like me.) Before my visit to Hoi An, SaPa was my favorite place in Vietnam, I still love Sapa but Hoi An is a stand out place. I don't really know why but the amount of people is not a problem. The people of Hoi An remind me of the people from Koh Samui in the early 80's ..... My wife and I both love Hoi An .... You have got us planing motorbike ride through Loas after watching you vlog on that. Love your work
It is good !! Go. Boats can come as cheap as 100k dong during the day time . Go during the day time , it is very calm and walking is a pleasant experience. The evening time is a different story altogether!! Its super active and crowded, it is beautiful at night too !
Plan to start around 1 pm have some lunch near the river , then walk around and by evening the place lights up like a magical place .
Amazing place, thanks for sharing
Fabulous vide hope to visit next year
Been there a few times love it
Yes February 2020 was here so beautiful have good time
I was there in 1996. magical! don't forget to go to the Taylor's market and enjoy the red lights at night.
just came home from hoi an ... ended up extending our visit, staying at an amazin little hotel close to ang am beach. I really didn't wanna leave. Also even tho there is traffic, it's pretty slow, and not that frantic , hectic situation that you would have in the rest of SEA =)
Hoi An is magical...spent a week there in 2018...so crowded we couldn't cross the japanese bridge 😂
What a charming place 😍 ... This city also has some amazing historical sites too as I remember being on the Internet checking out this city as an option as I was thinking for a change from Phuket 😆 🤣 😂
... sadly that year 2020 the pandemic came
Beautiful place, the Lanterns make everything seem magical🏮
Absolutely!
@@ridewithgabi But to be honest way too many tourists when l was there in 2018
It was busy now… I can only imagine how busy it was back in 2018
So sit back, relax and enjoy the video 😄😄😄. Altro che Netflix hahaha, ormai è un appuntamento fisso con questi video, grazieee 😇😇😇
Visited Hoi an with my sister and loved it
Oh you passed Faifo Coffee, where I am working Gabi, hope you enjoy Hoi An!
Ohh really? Sorry if we couldn’t catch up this time Ha 😌 next time we will meet for sure
I was in Hoi an in 1994 . In that time, I was visiting a friend who run a bar in a fantastic colonial house , near the japanese bridge. That was the beginning of the mass tourism industries, but not too busy and I really enjoyed. Now, 5 million tourist per year for such a tiny place. Terrible !! Tourism spoil everything, and as the vietnamese are so greedy and into business 24h a day, it's gonna get worst and worst , like Bali on the 70's.Sad tropics!
Very calm and peaceful city hoian
Hope you went to the beach to see the sunset
Gabi i will visit Hoi An next week for 4 days and 3 nights and i will post my comments after visiting , tomorrow i will travel to Sapa up in indochina himalayas
Hoi An di sera è spettacolare!!....una atmosfera unica al mondo!!.. indimenticabile!!..🇻🇳🇻🇳♥️♥️
Già… unica 👍🇻🇳
In fact, in Hanoi, there is also Duong Lam ancient village located in the west, 44 km from the city center. Compared to Hoi An, this place is more ancient, it is also more peaceful and less touristy.
I will be ther soon!
in 2007, I visited my elder sister who lives in Hoi an. I gave her some money to build a small humble house because she was a teacher she teaches in primary school she only earns 70 Pounds a month
I agree with you that this place is so beautiful hot humid warm all year round
Will be there soon
Thank you for this video. Found this really helpful. I'm currently planning a trip to Vietnam next month, but I'm torn on whether to do Da Nang first and then move to Hoi An, or Hoi An first before moving to Da Nang. Any suggestions?
Beautiful 😍
have coffee shop on rooftop in hoi an at 166 street. it so nice. ❤
Coming from Italy, you might think Hội An is the Asian equivalent of Venice.
June, July, August is the month when students have summer vacation, Vietnamese families will travel domestically in tourist destinations, so it is very crowded and difficult to book. You should visit Vietnam in March, April, 9, October, November, which is ideal for the weather 25-27oC and has sunshine and very beautiful scenery.
Good to hear. Have 4 nights booked for the middle of March.
Very beautiful city
Yes 🤩
Thank You 🙂
Hi Gabi, thanks for the tour. I am planning to visit Danang & Hoi An in the next few months. But still wondering if I need to stay 1 or 2nights at HoiAn (we will go with travel agency, but customized trip). They gave me a pack tour in HoiAn. Just thought that it will be nice if we add 1 more day on our own. But not sure what to explore (since we already shown to tourists site by the travel agency). Really appreciate your suggestion...Thank you
Hi. Would love too. Pls let me know how to contact you. Thank you
How many days did you stay in vietnam and thank you so much for sharing 😊 i am planning to ride around 1 month i am just wondering can i ride all over vietnam in one month with peaceful as like you ? 😊
Hi Gabi, I am trying to figure out if I should stay in Da Nang of Hoi An. Am I better off staying in Da Nang and doing a day trip to Hoi An like you did or stay the full 3 days in Hoi An? TIA
Có phải bạn đang trên hành trình đi về phía bắc của Việt Nam không??? Bạn đã biết gì về vùng tây bắc Việt Nam chưa??? Nếu bạn khám phá bằng xe moto khi lên các vùng tây bắc hùng vĩ núi non...Hà Giang. Tôi chắc bạn vô cùng yêu thích 😊
I will stop here for now. I will come back to Vietnam hopefully next year to do the north
Do you think a day trip to Hoi An from Da Nang would be sufficient? Or is it worth staying the night or a few days? Thanks!
Planning to come. How many days are required.i am planning for 3 days including da nang
My wife Margaret and I visited Hoi an 5 times and was stuck for a year and a half because of the covid19 thing. When we returned to the states we sold our house,cars and everything we owned and moved to Hoi an.
It the best place in the world and we don't want to live anywhere else. We love Vietnam and especially Hoi an! Sam Adler
Hey Margaret, I got a question to you. Maybe you the Expert for it. Is Hoi An already as crowded crowded as before? How is it now? I plan to go there in the next couple of months. Thanks
It's not as crowded as it was before the pandemic but it's getting more and more tourists. That's a good thing for the local businesses and people who suffered terribly because of the pandemic.
Do u know how much is taxi fare from Danang to Hoi An? Tq
Bạn quay phim rất đẹp
THANK YOU FOR THE COOL VIDEO. HOW MUCH IS A PLACE TO STAY THERE ????

Hi Gabi. How much does a bike/scooter rental cost in vietnam?
nice video again 👍 what do you do for living mate?
At the moment I do this full time
@@ridewithgabi good job ,I ll try to catch up with your all nice video's
Great
👍👍👍
The reason people love Hoi An is because it's not like Vietnam but I don't think they realise that's why they like it. I loved Hoi An. It's Kinda like Bali.
🎉
No.1
In Hoi An people working in tourism, boating and selling should wear antique clothes.
those boat people is really commercialized, last night i took the boat ride by myself 150k/20 mins, boat owner wants me buy his flowing paper candle lantern, but i didnt want to because i think it bad for the river. so owner seem not too happy and said you just like Vietnamese (guess he mean i am cheap) lol and he cut my time short to 15 mins... bad experiance on my part.. but i have to agree Hoi an is beautiful at night
Unfortunately I found Hoi An extremely touristy and didn't enjoy it at all. Glad you are having a different experience Gabi
Same for me
and felt annoyed with all the vendors that tryed to bring me in their shop at every 10 steps i was making.
Same for me...
Ciao Gabi, sono a Mui Ne in questo momento e sicuramente passerò da Hoi An. Quali sono secondo te le mete da non perdere da Mui Ne a Hoi An? Grazie
Đà Lạt, Nha Trang.
Sei in moto? Se si, guarda gli ultimi miei video perché ci sono delle belle strade.
Se invece non sei in moto, ti consiglierei Da Lat e poi Hoi An e Da Nang
Đà Lạt, Đà nẵng, Huế,Hội an là nơi tốt nhất miền trung, còn nha trang bạn ko nên đến đó vì nơi đó không tốt, họ bán hàng rất chém, đó không phải một nơi tốt
😍😍👍👍👍❤️
No attraction visited hoi an on 8 th sept 2022
Trên bến du thuyền đó.Nếu đủ may mắn bạn sẽ gặp được người phụ nữ có nụ cười đẹp nhất thế giới.
Are there $100-250pm rooms to rent there long term so that one could live there and work online for 3-12 months? ...Visa hassles aside, of course.
hello Gabriel how are you doing? , could you please tell us did you bring cash with you to Vietnam or your using your credit / debit card? , thank you.
I use my credit card to withdraw cash
@@ridewithgabi thank you sir.
Good video. Hoi An is way to touristy now, just wait until Chinese tourists come flooding back. 80. % of the buildings are shops selling souvenirs, 15% are restaurants and just 5% are historical buildings. It doesn't appeal to me.
Forget the city, who's that beautiful lady in white at beginning of your video?
🤣🤣 I took that video from storyblock, is not mine.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Have you been to Vung Tau🧐
Which month were you there?
Beginning of July
