What people are saying about Hue, Vietnam

Great day tour Me and my wife booked this private day tour to Hue with driver and guide as we wanted to see the sights at our leisure. We were picked up from our hotel in an SUV. The vehicle was comfortable and clean. Our driver Thao was a very confident and safe driver. Our guide Ha Thanh was very friendly, personable and knowledgeable and provided us with very good and understandable information about the culture and history of our host country during the tour. He also knew exactly where we had to make a photo stop to take nice pictures and how we could escape the tourist hustle and bustle a bit. He is also a very good photographer and took very nice souvenir photos of us with our camera. Lunch in a nice restaurant was very good. Overall, it was a great day tour that we can recommend to anyone who doesn't want to just run around in a big group behind a guide's banner and hastily run from place to place. The tour was very enjoyable and worth every cent. Top.

It was very exciting to deal with the Vietnam War and to drive through the region on the traces of the actions. Our guide was a veteran which made it even more interesting. Would recommend for history buffs! The group was very small (7 people) which was also nice.

Lieu magnifique, on en reste sans voix

Everything went smooth. Our driver was caring, flexible and helpful even though the weather wasn't great. We reached our final destination as planned and enjoyed the rest of the stay in Hoi An.

The driver was AWESOME. He explained everything to us about the war and life in Vietnam today.

Lovely trip on the river. The guide was great and very informative.
