Loved this tour! Debated... - Loved this tour! Debated doing it as it’s a ways from where we are staying in Da Nang, but so glad we did. The drive there is gorgeous and included a couple of great stops. “Ha” was our tour guide and she was amazing. Her English is great and she understood and answered all of our questions. There’s so much history and interesting facts to learn and she made it fun. Lunch was delicious and Ha explained how to eat some of the food that was new to us.

A great private tour of Hue! - I booked this private tour from Danang and I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to book a day trip to Hue. The pick up and drop off from the hotel was very confident. Our driver Mr. Hao was very friendly, accommodating and a great driver. The drive from Danang to Hue was over two hours but he explained many things during the drive and ensure we were comfortable. Our tour guide we met at Hue, whose name was Fi, was also great and she was very knowledgeable about the rich history of Hue. I learned so much about the history of Hue and the last dynasty of Vietnam. Since this was a private tour, we could really enjoy the tour at our own pace and having the designated driver was also very convenient. If you want to explore Hue while staying Danang, I would definitely recommend this tour!

Day in Hue - The day was perfectly calibrated. Departure from the hotel with Mr Hai who drove masterfully all the way with smile and kindness. The stops were well thought out, the visits perfectly commented by Mrs Nhi smiling and fine connoisseur of her subject. The scenery, the sights, the timing, everything was perfect! And, lunch included in the day at a small local restaurant was again a treat! In short, we recommend! Thank you again for a wonderful day in Hue!

A riveting and memorable experience. - Thank you Mr Hoang and driver, Mr Hau for making this such an amazing tour. You communicated your depth of knowledge on the history of Hue and the history and intricacies of the royal families/emperors of Vietnam and their daily life in such a way that brought to life the whole palace life experience. we loved your retelling of history, the political intrigue to the life and death of the emperors. It is one thing to look at a pagoda or tomb. it is quite another to hear you tell the story about it. Thank you for making this tour an amazing experience, your attention to detail, your timeliness and your professionalism. Highly recommended!

Hue Day trip from Danang via Hai Van Pass - Customisable hue day trip from danang. Driver Mr Hau was professional and accommodating. He was able to plan the shortest and most efficient route from Danang to Hue to cover the attractions we wanted. Pick us up from hotel in Danang on time, drove past Hai Van Pass and pick out the photo stops for us, visited Lap An Lagoon and Lang Co beach. In Hue, driver was thoughtful and also reminded us to take care of our belongings in Dong Ba market. Also replenished water when we ran out and offered sun umbrella. Overall a pleasant experience with driver Mr Hau :)
