Must do trip to Hue - Would highly recommend this tour especially with Tom, our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The train trip was excellent and thoroughly enjoyed the singers, laughed when the entertainment changed trains halfway along the trip.
Absolutely loved the Imperial palace, just beautiful. Lunch was included and boy it was delicious and plentiful, catering for all tastes and allergies.

Nice trip with some good views and a really motivated tour guide - Great tour! We were only a group of 4 people, plus our lovely local guide Helen and the driver! The driving up the pass is quite a nice experience, we made some stops for pictures, had time for a morning coffee and then went to Hue. The places we toured through were definitely worth to visit and we had a local meal for lunch in one of the small restaurants there! Last place (the tomb) was the best in my opinion! The trip back is quite a long way, but we used the time to have a sleep and we arrived back in Danang according to the original plan!

Best Tour Guide - Nhung - We highly recommend Nhung as a tour guide and translator for the Hue Imperial City & Hai Van tour. She not only fulfilled her duties exceptionally, but she also went the extra mile to ensure our experience was memorable and comfortable. Her knowledge of the history and significance of the Hue Imperial City and Hai Van was impressive, and she shared interesting facts that enhanced our understanding of the sites.
What made Nhung stand out was her friendly and kind demeanor. She was a pleasure to be around and made us feel welcome throughout the tour. Additionally, her willingness to accommodate our needs was commendable. When our daughter fell ill towards the end of the tour, Nhung went out of her way to assist us. She took us to a pharmacy and helped translate our daughter's symptoms, which enabled us to get the necessary medicine.
We are grateful for Nhung's exceptional service and highly recommend her as a tour guide and translator in Hue. Her dedication to her role and her genuine care for her clients make her an invaluable asset to any tour.
