Things to do in Mausoleum of Emperor Tu Duc

Simon was our guide - clear and interesting explanation! to note that the drive to Hue is ~2 hours away with one rest stop. Attractions visited was ample to learn more about the historical importance of hue. The provided lunch was also very filling.

A great way to visit the many monuments of Hue. The staff is attentive and very considerate. They inform us when we arrive at the station where we want to get off and tell us the time the next one will arrive so we can continue our journey. Very good welcome.

Normally, I enjoy Vietnamese coffee, egg coffee, salt coffee, and coconut coffee. Today, I had a special opportunity to learn how to make coffee in Hue at the Phin coffee class with Uyen. I learned about the history of each type of coffee and the coffee-making process, which was not difficult at all and a lot of fun.

A wonderful experience that exceeded our expectations. Thanh the host was excellent, and gave a talk on the perfume river history, and pointed out landmarks explaining what they were. The boat was pristine and staff very warm and friendly. Afternoon tea was delicious and beautifully displayed on a tiered stand. A highly recommended boat trip!

Had an amazing day tour to Hue exploring Vietnam's historical heritage! This was by far the best handled guided tour I've taken. Our guide, Tâm, messaged the pickup time in advance and met me right at the hotel entrance. We took the tunnel instead of the Hai Van Pass, but Tâm gave us a great history overview along the way, including a nice coffee break at a lagoon. The Highlights: Khai Dinh Tomb: Incredibly beautiful and unique architecture. Lunch: A wonderful group meal at a lovely hotel. Tâm perfectly handled my dietary restrictions. Thien Mu Pagoda: Stunning views and even better architecture. The Imperial Citadel: Amazing!! I’ve never seen such a beautifully restored palace. It was worth every bit of the heat. Quick Tip: The 2.5-hour drive is very comfortable and great for a nap. Definitely bring a hat and stay hydrated, as walking around the sites gets really hot. Overall, an incredible experience!

Great experience along the Perfume River. Our guide was excellent and provided great knowledge and insight into Hue and its history. The food was of good quality and there was enough offered to be a good sized afternoon tea. Very enjoyable experience.

My booking was made through Klook, and while the staff were initially confused about Klook, it was all sorted out within 10 minutes. There were altogether 11 or 12 items served. Food was on the whole delicious. Staff were helpful, and service was also quick. We arrived at around 6.15 pm, and food was served soon after 6.30, and by around 7.30 we had finished. Also liked the "old fashioned" ambience of the place.

The day was really hot as it is already summer time but Hue Imperial City is really a sight to behold! the old buildings were preserved although some were already in ruins. The whole compound was wide and we enjoyed strolling around

The tomb of the Emperor has intricate details and we loved exploring the whole complex as well! Learned a lot of things about him and his contributions to Vietnam, although it was hot but when going to Hue, you should not miss this
