Dong Ba Market

Si Simon ang naging gabay namin - malinaw at kawili-wili ang kanyang pagpapaliwanag! Dapat tandaan na ang biyahe patungong Hue ay humigit-kumulang 2 oras na may isang hintuan para magpahinga. Sapat ang mga binisitang atraksyon upang mas maunawaan ang kahalagahan ng kasaysayan ng Hue. Ang inihandang tanghalian ay nakakabusog din nang husto.

I had a fabulous day with To and we ticked off so many places of interest in Hue. I could never have covered so much alone. To is a very good driver with great English and was very committed to making sure I had a great day. The restaurant we stopped at for lunch was fresh and tasty. Even at the end of the day instead of taking me to the market he stopped at a grocery store for me to let me buy supplies I had mentioned I wanted to take home. There was enough time to see everything at my own pace and no rushing; just relaxing.

Napakagandang karanasan namin kay Toan bilang aming pribadong tour guide! Napakabait niya, madaling pakisamahan at napakadaling kausapin. Nagrekomenda siya ng ilang magagandang lugar sa paligid ng Hoi An, kasama na ang marahil ay pinakamasarap na Bánh Mì na natikman ko sa buong biyahe ko. 😄 Tiningnan din namin ang BeBe tailor at nagpagawa ng ilang damit! Napakalaking tulong din niya sa paglilibot sa Ba Na Hills. Dahil mas gusto kong mag-focus sa mga pinaka-iconic na lugar at hindi maglaan ng oras para makita ang lahat, tinulungan niya kaming masulit ang aming oras doon at maiwasan ang hindi kinakailangang paggala. lol Pinahahalagahan ko rin ang lahat ng lokal na tip at rekomendasyon na ibinahagi niya sa buong biyahe. Napaka-accommodating niya, may kaalaman, at talagang gusto niyang magkaroon kami ng magandang karanasan. Tiyak na kukunin ko ulit si Toan sa susunod na bumalik ako sa Vietnam. Lubos na inirerekomenda! 😝

Okay, the trip was really fun, and we got to see all of downtown Hue.

Hoa was an excellent guide. He shared a lot of interesting local knowledge and went out of his way to assist with our queries. The food was delicious and we enjoyed learning about the culture and history as he guided us through the Dong Ba market and around some interesting streets. His English is excellent and would recommend him to friends and family.

We had a wonderful cooking class in Hue! The food was delicious, and the whole experience was fun and well organized. A big thank you to Lisa for being so friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. She made the class easy to follow and enjoyable for everyone. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Hue :))

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.

Napakagandang day tour sa Hue upang tuklasin ang makasaysayang pamana ng Vietnam! Ito ang pinakamahusay na guided tour na naranasan ko. Ang aming gabay, si Tâm, ay nag-mensahe ng oras ng pickup nang maaga at sinalubong ako mismo sa pasukan ng hotel. Dumaan kami sa tunnel sa halip na sa Hai Van Pass, ngunit binigyan kami ni Tâm ng mahusay na pangkalahatang-ideya ng kasaysayan habang naglalakbay, kasama ang isang masarap na coffee break sa isang lagoon. Ang mga Highlight: Libingan ni Khai Dinh: Napakaganda at kakaibang arkitektura. Tanghalian: Isang kahanga-hangang group meal sa isang magandang hotel. Perpektong pinamahalaan ni Tâm ang aking mga dietary restriction. Thien Mu Pagoda: Nakamamanghang tanawin at mas magandang arkitektura. Ang Imperial Citadel: Kamangha-mangha!! Hindi pa ako nakakita ng ganoong kagandang naibalik na palasyo. Sulit ang bawat init na naranasan. Mabilis na Tip: Ang 2.5-oras na biyahe ay napakakumportable at mahusay para sa pagtulog. Siguraduhin na magdala ng sumbrero at manatiling hydrated, dahil napakainit maglakad sa mga site. Sa pangkalahatan, isang hindi kapani-paniwalang karanasan!

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.
