The guide was so endearing and had good command over English. We were three people in the van tour and guide gelled so well with the group. She explained all the important features of the spots visited and helped us with our shopping. I wish all the best for her career and bright future. Now I remember , the name of guide is V. Thanks for showing us around

Fabulous private tour with lunch

Published on Mar, 2024

Arrived in HNC night before and decided to take this full day tour. Our guide Vy was lovely. She was informative and very friendly. She even took superb photos. We covered most of the tourist attractions in the full day. She also took us for lunch which was part of the package. As we did a private tour we didnt feel rushed at all. I would highly reccomend this paticular tour

Great tour
