5 Days in Hoi An with Kids
A gentle 5-day Hoi An family itinerary built around lantern-lit Ancient Town walks, beach downtime at An Bang, hands-on cooking, and easy countryside rides. The pacing keeps transfers short and gives children a mix of culture, food, and pool-friendly breaks. Use this as a practical base if you want Vietnam charm without constantly packing bags. It works especially well for first-time families who want the Thu Bon River, coconut boats, tailoring, and one memorable My Son or Cham Islands-style excursion without overloading each day.
