Creator's Key Takeaways

I think this was my favorite day. And all of it's been fantastic, don't get me wrong, but today was just super special.

Um, and then we did the basket boat ride, which was so stinking fun.

All of the lunches with Travel Authentic Asia have been fantastic. Beautiful restaurants.

I'm so proud of you. Actually, that's it. So, now we're not hungry for dinner. This is how this works.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use the independent vendors for tours instead of ship tours for better value.
Wait for cleaner restrooms at the next stop if the current ones are dirty.
Haggle for prices at the marble carving village as items may not have price tags.

Time constraints in Hoi AnThe tour is seamless with electric cars, but wish there was more free time for shopping and coffee.

From our last Vietnamese port of call in Chan May, we're off to explore both Danang and Hoi An with a private independent excursion through Travel Authentic Asia! We'll enjoy quick stops at the Dragon Bridge, My Khe Beach (also known as China Beach), and a marble carving studio on the way to the first major activity... hopping in a basket boat made of bamboo and taking it for a literal spin. After another amazing included lunch, we'll head to the town of Hoi An to learn about silk, stroll through the Japanese covered bridge, peek inside a Chinese temple, and more!! :D Find Travel Authentic Asia on the internet machine here: https://travelauthenticasia.com/ 00:00 BOOM! 00:12 Morning Mode 00:55 Let's Head Ashore 02:04 Danang Dragon Bridge 03:22 My Khe (China) Beach 04:59 Marble Carving Studio 06:48 Bamboo Boat Ride 14:01 Time For Lunch 16:09 Exploring Hoi An 22:13 Ship & Photos 24:14 Let's Wrap It Up! -Cruise Line: Princess Cruises -Ship Name: Coral Princess -Cruise Dates: January 5, 2026 - May 16, 2026 -Embarkation: Fort Lauderdale, Florida -Disembarkation: Los Angeles, California -Itinerary: 131-Day Circle Pacific Cruise!!
