The ULTIMATE 3 days in Hoi An, Vietnam | Ancient Town, basket boats, lantern making, & MORE!

We made it to Hoi An, Vietnam and we are in LOVE with this beautiful city! We spent a few days exploring its Ancient Town, trying local foods, going to a night market, spinning on a basket boat, making a lantern, and riding bikes to the beach and through a vegetable garden. It was one of our favorite few days in Vietnam!

To see everywhere we went in this video, plus a bunch of spots we visited off camera, check out this custom Google Map we made for Vietnam, which you can download to your phone! https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/1/edit?mid=1SkKve-t1dLULPj7GTBMmMvfrmY-j8G0&usp=sharing

NOTE: To download this map, you will want to click the rectangle in the top right corner of the map, which will open it on your Google Maps app. However, this will not automatically populate the map on your phone anytime you have Google Maps open, so to access it again in the future, click "saved" on the bottom part of the app, then "maps", and you should be able to see it as a saved map.
