Mr Hung was the best guide you could possibly get, kind, very well spoken English, very attentive and very knowledgeable about Vietnam history. The tour is very complete and you get to visit the most relevant sites in the city. Totally recommended.

Published on Nov, 2024
We were picked up from our home stay by our tour guide nhien in a nice new car. Nhien was very informative and friendly and had great English. Our meal was delicious and plenty to eat. The citadel and tombs and padoga were beautiful and the boat ride gave us a different view of the city. Great value for money and I would definitely recommend.
Memorable trip at Hue
Published on Oct, 2024
This tour passes thru the beautiful Hai Van Pass, and I had the chance to stop by at traditional insane making place. I tried Bun Bo Hue and also Salty Coffee, both were delicious. Guide Nhien is knowledgable and explained in detail. Son is also great, driving carefully and gave me enough time to take pictures. Thank you, it was a memorable trip
In-depth historical explanation for a great day!
Published on Oct, 2024
Amazing private tour! Hong explained everything in full detail and answered all of my questions clearly in the Imperial City and the mausoleums. Our driver Son made effort to bring me to good photo stops on the way to Hue and accompanied me to a fort on the way. I was also delighted that I could propose my own lunch place to try the “dumplings” of Hue since I don’t eat beef noodles. An incredible experience where I got to do everything I wanted to do!
