Your daily adventure crew – all solo travelers just like you (Source: Internet)Hoi An Ancient Town – a UNESCO World Heritage Site – is consistently voted the most welcoming destination in Vietnam for independent explorers. Narrow lantern-lit streets, zero traffic in the old quarter, endless cafés, tailor shops, cooking schools, and a beach just 5 km away make it the perfect base for solo adventurers who want both culture and freedom.
Every evening, hundreds of solo travelers from around the world meet on the riverside, release lanterns, join street-food crawls, and plan the next day’s adventures together. Legend Travel Group has been running daily small-group Vietnam Tours from Hoi An since 2008 – designed specifically so solo travelers never travel alone.
