Amazing tour that will blow your mind away - Hoi An is one of our favorite destinations because it is where we got married. We go to Hoi An quite often. Normally we rent motorbikes to go around for sight seeing This time one day we saw a group of tourists on ebikes, they looked so happy and so enjoyable that we stopped to ask for information. A few days later we took the same tour and were amazed with the whole trip. Sight seeing by Ebike helps you to enjoy the nature more, slowly take in the scenic view of the yellow rice fields when you ride through small paths around villages. Especially you will visit local family having tranditional household industries, finding out how Vietnamese make fine rice wine, rice paper, famous fish sauce, sesame oil.... all made by hands. A fresh and cold coconut juice at a stop will refresh your mind and soul on a hot day or a gounded coffee cup will blow your mind away. It is a great way to meet the local people, get to know their daily activities and family- made products that become so famous about Hoi An. We highly recommend this tour by Electric Smiles. We had such a memorable day and an amazing experience, a totally different aspect of Hoi An.
