Lang Co Bay and Hue City Tour was wonderful! The bay is peaceful and scenic, perfect for photos. Hue City is rich in history with beautiful temples and the Imperial Citadel. The guide was friendly and informative — a great day trip with stunning views and cultural experiences!

It would have been perfect if it weren't for the rain. The guide has a really funny Korean spin on things, haha. Definitely try it if you get the chance, but on a clear day rather than a rainy one.

The bus was comfortable and clean, and our tour guide was very informative and friendly. However, you’re joining a big group tour, be prepared that not everyone may be considerate. I joined a large group with guests from different nationalities, and many talked loudly—even while the guide was explaining important historical details. Despite having designated free time to explore, some guests returned late, often 10–20 minutes past the agreed time, leaving the rest of us waiting on the bus. I hope the tour company can strictly remind guests to keep their voices at a moderate volume, especially during long bus rides that last over two hours. It would be nice to have a bit of peace to rest or sleep. And to fellow tourists, please be mindful of time and practice basic courtesy.

This was a well-paced tour and a really good way to see all the highlights of Hue. Our tour guide Thinh was very knowledgeable and shared different facts throughout the tour. The food was great, and we had a good taste of delicacies of Vietnam. I definitely recommend it.

Vin was great, fun and very knowledgeable. The history of Hué was so fascinating. Her English was easy to understand which made the tour enjoyable. The pace was well thoughtout, explaining the history of each location and then allowed everyone to spend some time to explore ourselves.

We had an amazing experience on our Hue tour, and a big part of that was thanks to our guide, Van. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the history and culture of Hue, and shared it with so much passion that every site came to life. Van was also very attentive, making sure we were comfortable and answering all our questions with patience and a smile. Her friendly personality and professionalism made the whole day enjoyable and stress-free. We not only learned a lot, but also felt like we were exploring the city with a good friend. We highly recommend Van to anyone visiting Hue—you couldn’t ask for a better guide!
