Excellent service. Very attentive and friendly Leo, who did everything in his power for a good tour - I read very well. The very convenient tour to know the main sites on the Hue-Hoi An route. And arrive in time to enjoy the night on the river in Hoi An, which is lovely

A safe and seamless driving experience. - Despite having rainy weather hampering the activities along the way, what made our day very enjoyable was our driver Tien (a.k.a. Leo).
He was very talkative and energetic and attentive, and made sure to take very good care of us the whole way from Hué in the morning to Hoi An in the evening.
No request was too difficult for him, and he was very flexible in offering up suggested places to stop for a rest or for lunch as we worked through our day seeing the sights.
Even though we tourists we were unfamiliar with the area, Leo made sure we were covered and in safe hands until reaching our destination.

Great day trip - We were picked up punctually by minh at our hotel in hue. Communication with him worked perfectly. We felt safe and secure throughout the ride. The ride over the hai van pass (cloud pass) paid off. We had fantastic weather and a great view towards south and north. Minh told us a lot about the history of vietnam.
The trip to the golden bridge was unfortunately a bust and did not meet our expectations. The golden bridge was overflowing, and all attractions required a longer wait of over half an hour. Communication and signage on the ban na hills can be improved.
Our last stop was the marble mountains with wonderful caves and a great view! Unfortunately we were too early to enjoy the sunset.
Our tour ended at our hotel in Hoi.
Thanks for the great trip!

Great customised sightseeing trip - We had a great time with Tien (Leo) - he picked our group of 4 from our hotel early in the morning as we wanted to reach Hoi An early in the afternoon. The Golden Gate stop was amazing! Well worth visiting but count on spending 3 hours up there as there is a charming French village and loads of things to see other than the bridge itself. Leo took us to the special lane for tickets where we didn’t have to line up and he waited for us at the parking lot. We also stopped at the beach where they grow oysters and harvest pearls, as well as Hai Van pass which has historic significance as a gateway to Da Nang city and thus a strategic military point. Leo also recommended tailors in Hoi An and a few restaurants. He was super funny and relaxed as well as a good driver.

Easy, go to transfer with things to do on the way. - David picked us up from our hotel and was super punctual sending a message that he had arrived. In fact communication via WhatsApp and in person was excellent throughout. Really friendly and honest.
We travelled in some pretty miserable weather but we felt safe during our journey. We were told many things about how people in Vietnam feel about development (as there was much on the trip), their culture and what to expect given the time of year.
The weather was pretty dire to be fair but we still was able to make the most of it. What we did appreciate is being guided to the screens as to whether we wanted to attempt the golden bridge or not given the ticket price, we opted out as we still have plenty of time to revisit on a better day. We were given an alternative activity to do too.
We were also given tips as tourists, which is refreshing, we are seasoned travellers and there’s nothing worse than being handed over to second rate tourist trap after tourist trap for a cheap commission that goes into the drivers pocket. None of that here, in fact, quite the opposite. Safe travels!

Hue to Hoi An car trip - We had an amazing time! The lagoon and marble mountains were highlights. I have to especially thank our guide Nam. He was an excellent driver and guide-- he was extremely friendly, told us lots about the places we visited, and even made a few adjustments to the itinerary for us. Definitely worth it.
