What to expect
Nha Trang's picture perfect islands are undeniably beautiful, but in this tour, you'll see an equally gorgeous yet completely different side of the coastal city. Immerse yourself in the city's fascinating past when you book this private tour! For your first stop, head to The Institute of Oceanography. Established in 1923, the institute was one of the first centers for scientific research in Indochina. Learn about the recent studies on the coastal waters of the East Sea, the prevalence of marine pollution, and its possible solutions as you follow the tour. Take a walk further into the institute's premises and discover the Marine Creature Museum, where 80,000 sea and freshwater specimens reside. After an educational trip, move on to Long Son Pagoda. This Taoist temple's architecture and design displays the mythical animals and gods of Taoism. Doubling as a school for monks and monstery, you'll see monks as you carry on with the tour. Take a trip down to Nha Trang's memory lane with a stop at Po Nagar Cham Towers, a place of worship as early as 2nd century AD. Get a closer look at the slabs and see inscriptions of the history, religion, and social structure of the once powerful Champa kingdom. For your last stop, visit the Nha Trang Stone Church for a glimpse of French influence. Built to promote Catholicism back in the day, the cathedral's French gothic architecture and interiors are a reminder of its past as a French colony. End the tour with a ride back to your hotel






Reviews
We had a wonderful time with our tour guide, Jimmy Diem. He speaks good English and very knowledgeable about the history of Nha Trang. He is also a very thoughtful guide always looking out for us and ensuring we are comfortable. I would definitely recommend this tour for those who have extra time in Nha Trang as you get to know the history of Nha Trang and visit some places which tourist would not visit. It is very interesting and a good cultural experience. Most importantly, it’s convenient where they will pick you will from your hotel. the whole tour experience is comfortable.
This was such a fun tour! Even though we paid for a join-in tour, it ended up being a private tour for me and my boyfriend which was a nice surprise. Our tour guide was Quoc, and he did such an amazing job! Not only was he extremely informative, he was a great photographer! We ended the tour with a quick lunch consisting of pho. 10/10 would recommend.
Great discovery. Top-notch small group. Thanks to Thien for his dedication and explanations. We had a lot of fun while making great discoveries. The only downside is that we couldn't see the inside of the cathedral. The tour should be organized accordingly. Especially since this has already been pointed out. Thank you, Thien, for your kindness.
Did my tour with Jimmy Diem and he was fantastic - i learned so much history in that 4 hour tour (things i would have not known if i had just visited the places alone). So good to learn about Nha Trang and Vietnam as a whole. Loved it. Such a fun time and great decision to book this tour. It is relatively cheap so i think people should do it.
We joined a half-day tour to visit four attractions. Our guide, Jimmy, picked us and the other members of the group up at 9 am in the city center and we set off. We went to the aquarium, enjoyed the music, and visited Po Nagar Cham Towers and other attractions. The guide was very professional and explained a lot of culture and history to us. He was very enthusiastic and helped us take pictures. Highly recommended.
Good English speaking and helpful guide. Several sites packed into a half day tour.
Robb was an excellent guide! He was really knowledgeable on all the attractions we went to & he always made sure we were comfortable & well well informed . He is a great asset to your team . Thank you Robb for sharing your experiences & knowledge about Nha Trang with us❤️Our family of 4 really enjoyed our tour☺️
A wonderful experience with Jimmy, he was very considerate and took care of us the whole trip while telling us about the stories behind the landmarks we went to, would definitely recommend!
It was a tour that went around the main tourist spots in Nha Trang, so it was a great tour to visit in the morning! I was worried a lot because the price difference was large compared to the Korean tour, but it was not difficult at all to do the English tour. It was great because they explained things in an easy-to-understand way and took pictures more passionately than we did. 😊Thang, the guide, was really the best! 🥰
Our guide, Muoi, was incredibly kind and happily accommodated all of our requests! She spoke to us in a mix of Japanese, which helped us understand the historical sites as we explored them. She also took many wonderful photos, creating great memories for our family. Thanks to the guide, we were able to visit all the famous spots efficiently, making this a very cost-effective tour! Highly recommended. The pho for lunch was also delicious; we almost drank all the soup!
