Hue Day trips

If you are interested in learning about Vietnam’s last emperor, you have to book this tour. It will be very hot so bringing an umbrella is a must. wear something that will protect you from the heat of the sun.

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!

I usually prefer to arrange everything myself when it comes to travel, but booking the "Full-Day Tour of Hue Imperial City and Heritage Train" was definitely the right decision. We secured the promised right-side seats on the Heritage Train. We enjoyed the spectacular views from the train window until we arrived at Lang Co Bay. Afterward, we fully experienced the ancient city of Hue, visiting the Hue Imperial City, Thien Mu Pagoda, and Khai Dinh Tomb, all with detailed explanations from our guide, Sam, who clearly loves Hue. Transportation to and from the hotel and local travel was comfortable in the transporter shown in the photo. The tour lunch was also surprisingly substantial, not what you'd typically expect from a tour meal. All participants, from Australia, Germany, and Japan, were very satisfied!

We had a great time with our Hue Imperial Discovery tour with our tour guide Kevin. Kevin, was very knowledgeable about Vietnam's history and he is also funny so the we never got bored during our whole trip. We also enjoyed our lunch and we love the authentic vietnamese foods. Kevin made sure that all our needs were catered well. It was a funtastic experience.

everything good. lunch is cold and stale, no good. 😂 try afternoon tour, at least you catch sunset on boat. 9-11am at my son, so many people... had to run a little to group up again to keep to schedule. because of rice paper and boring lunch, little time at my son. because guide explaination is 60 min. 20 min walking. 20 min dance show. only 2 min left to close your eyes to feel the air and stones... because the other 18 min you have to run and rush to the other 2 sites beside the main one by speed walking. I think. if I could start over, id choose afternoon tour. because morning is so early and I did not have breakfast, so hungry. and rice paper making is a bit boring for my Chinese background plus lunch was 😕 so-so. I think it would be best to take your lunch and wake up late, relax, then do afternoon tour without the other 2 activities and no rushing plus sunset boat ride is way more beautiful... 🙃 than a 1pm ride 😅

beautiful places and commendable patience of the tour guide.

The guide explained the background and foundations of modern Vietnam with humor, allowing me to learn about its modern history in an interesting and objective way. I'm not sure if it was a coincidence, but there were also participants from Vietnam and related countries, which added depth to the discussions. While the cave tours had many Japanese and other Asian visitors, this tour primarily attracted people from Europe and North America. I believe this is a must-do tour if you visit Vietnam. The places we visited would be difficult to reach on my own, and the interactions with the guide and other participants made it well worth it. Furthermore, Hue is a beautiful and walkable city, so if time is limited, I think participating in the DMZ tour from Hue is more valuable than staying in Dong Hoi to visit the caves.

Worthwhile tour. HOA was a knowledgeable and kindly guide. He explained a lot about the Citadel and it's history and detail. Bun bo Hue at the markets was a good and tasty end. The Citadel is so large it probably deserves a 6 hour tour.

I really enjoyed this trip with my friends. We had Duc as our driver from Da Nang to Hue, and everything went very smoothly. All the places we wanted to visit were covered, and Duc was polite, flexible, and happy to adjust the plan to suit our needs. Highly recommend!
