Your Vietnam, Crafted for You
“This is not just Hoi An.
This is Hoi An with me.”
Private, authentic journeys with Ha – your local friend and 11th generation son of Hoi An.
I’m Ha Nguyen, the 11th generation of my family in Hoi An. For the past 17 years, guiding has been more than my profession—it’s my life’s calling. I was born and raised in this ancient town, and I carry with me its history, traditions, and soul.
When you explore with me, you won’t just see Hoi An—you’ll experience my Hoi An: the hidden corners, the untold stories, and the living culture that has shaped generations. From lantern-lit evenings to bustling markets, from secret alleyways to timeless traditions, I want you to feel this town through my eyes, my heart, and my people.
Beyond Hoi An, I’ll take you further across Vietnam—introducing you to landscapes, flavors, and stories that most visitors never discover.
Every journey is private, safe, and tailored just for you—whether you travel as a couple, family, or group of friends. My mission is simple: to make your time in Vietnam unforgettable, authentic, and full of connection.
🌏 I’ve spent my life welcoming travelers from all over the world, and I can’t wait to meet you, learn about your culture, and share mine.
“Hoi An is my home.
Let me share it with you.”
While I personally lead many tours, I am not alone in this journey. I work with a small, handpicked team of local guides—friends who, like me, were born and raised in Hoi An. Each of them is a licensed professional, fluent in English and in some cases bilingual or trilingual. We share the same pride, passion, and love for our hometown. Together, we bring a depth of knowledge, warmth, and flexibility that ensures every traveler feels at home here. Whether you’re a family with children, a couple seeking romance, a group of friends on an adventure, or guests with special needs—we can create and adapt tours that fit perfectly. With us, you will always enjoy private, safe, and carefully designed experiences, tailored to your wishes. Our mission is simple: to make your time in Vietnam authentic, unforgettable, and full of genuine human connection.
Your Journey, Your Story
Every tour with me is private and unhurried. A half day drifts gently, a full day unfolds fully — always at your pace, with time to pause, breathe, and enjoy. Plans can change as we go, because this is your journey, shaped by curiosity and the moment.
Whether you seek adventure or a slower rhythm, I guide you as a friend — so that when you return home, Vietnam lingers in your heart, alive in your stories and memories.
Where every step becomes a memory, and every memory becomes part of Vietnam within you.

We had an amazing tour yesterday. We were picked up from our hotel in Hoi An and got to tour the intricate street by motorbike. Our guides were excellent, knowledgeable and made the whole family feel included. From visiting a local vegetable farm, riding a buffalo and experiencing the Korean disco from our basket boat, we were immersed in the Vietnamese culture. Thank you so much to our riders: Phan Hoang Hai, Bu, Quang and Quang and Hoang Ha for organising everything.
