Good questions about this tour

Will I get wet on the basket boat, and is it safe?

You get a life jacket, and the spinning is done by the local boatmen, so it's controlled fun rather than anything risky - but bring a change of clothes just in case, as it can splash. It's a favourite with kids and families.

Does this tour include hotel pickup and drop-off?

Heads-up: on this tour, hotel pickup and drop-off aren't included - you meet at a rendezvous point in Da Nang. If you'd like door-to-door transfers, we can arrange that separately; just ask.
