Excellent tour - It was a very good tour. Our guide Phillip looked after us really well, anticipating our needs and providing local knowledge and history. Phillip had spent time in Australia so we were able to converse on many subjects and also share adventures. A very good lunch is a lovely restaurant was also provided. I can highly recommend this tour - we saw Cham Tower, Long Son Pagoda, markets, and Hon Chong Promontory where we heard a wonderful musical performance using many local instruments. It all made for a very enjoyable day.

Great for Cruise Passengers - Top Guide & Driver - Private Tour x2 People. Absolutely excellent tour guide (Van) and driver (sorry could not remember name). Van’s English good and explained the city and culture very well. We had the lunch option and requested local dish and people, our guide & driver took us to really good lunch, mango smoothie and coffee locations all with local community. Would highly recommend. Excellent day mindful we were tight for time on cruise.

Can Ranh was a great experience, and the lunch was awesome! - We had the best day with Jay. He was super punctual, communicated clearly about when/where for pickup, and was funny, smart and accommodating. We really enjoyed the temples, some of the best of the trip. We would like to spend more time in Cam Ranh because of this excursion.

Cam ranh comes alive with Ali!! - Wonderful! Even though there was confusion with debarkation from ship & our departure was delayed by 2 hrs, Ali was still able to fit in 5 sites & delicious lunch! He was extremely personable & knowledgeable about the history of the sites we saw. Love to learn about the history. Always remembered to pose us for great photo shoots at each site. They turned out beautiful! I showed our friends some of the photos. They went to same place but didn’t have these beautiful pictures. Our entire group of 6 kept thanking me for arranging this tour. Thank you Ali!

A Personalized Experience in a Day - We booked the "Cam Ranh Port. Shore Excursion Private Nha Trang City Tour" while visiting on a Princess Cruises sailing, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip.
My family of three adults was picked up right at Cara World, where the cruise shuttle drops guests. Our guide, Tien, also known as Timmy, was waiting with a sign with my name, which made him very easy to spot. After getting off a ship with many passengers, that simple detail made a big difference.
We traveled in a brand new Hyundai SUV. The vehicle was clean and comfortable. Our driver, also named Tien, was excellent. He drove carefully and confidently, which allowed us to relax and enjoy the day.
The itinerary was well planned and never felt rushed. We visited Long Son Pagoda, which offers beautiful views and impressive Buddhist statues. My favorite stop was Po Nagar Cham Towers. The history and architecture there are fascinating, and the site is beautifully preserved. We also stopped at Hon Chong Promontory, where the coastal rock formations and ocean views are stunning.
One of the most memorable experiences was visiting an authentic Vietnamese home known as Hon Chong by the shoreline, where musicians performed traditional Vietnamese instruments. It felt personal and meaningful, not staged or rushed.
We had time to explore Dam Market for fruit and clothing shopping. It was lively and gave us a real sense of daily life in Nha Trang. We ended the tour with lunch at Xom Moi Garden, which was outstanding. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The went to see the Catholic Cathedral built by the French on top of a high rock.
Overall, this private tour was organized, comfortable, and thoughtfully paced. Tien, aka Timmy, was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable throughout the day. If you are stopping at Cam Ranh Port and want a personalized experience in Nha Trang, I highly recommend this tour.

Beautiful experience! - Great experience! We got to see all of the main sites and had really good commentary along the way. They were also very flexible when we wanted to change the itinerary to match with limited walking ability for my 82-year-old mother

The tour guide, Hoa, was very sweet and accommodating as well as the driver.
