Vietnam, Hoi An

Fantastic, relaxed town.
You'll soon find out the thing to do here is have clothes custom made. You will be bombarded with options. They can make anything in a day using photos from magazines or copies from designer catalogues you can look at. We prefered choosing our clothes from samples that were already on display so you can see the handywork and just have to have one done in your size. We used Na Rin, 27B Tran Hung Dao St. (0510) 910904 and had excellent service. The Cloth Market is very hectic, try some of the other quieter shops for less hassle. You need to bargain hard and only accept your clothes when you are happy with them. We were lucky and had suits that fitted on the first try.
Take a boat trip along the river, just walk along the pier and a lady will offer her boat - best done early morning. Should be about $2 per person for an hour.
Take a bicycle and ride to the beach. Great beach and you can have your seafood cooked in front of you.
Eat at any of the quaint reataurants along the river front.
Watch out for people overcharging, shortchanging or switching things as you are negotiating for souvenirs. You sometimes even have to bargain for water but be firm and state the usual price!
