We traveled with Mr Tuyen from Hoi An to Hue and loved it so much we booked for the small group city tour . Mr Tuyen spoke great English and was able to tell us about sights along the way. He arrived early each day and the car was spotlessly clean. I couldnāt recommend more ā reliable, friendly service guaranteed!!
I and my husband had a wonderful trip between Hue and Hoi An with Jen. Her English is great and she gave interesting information along the way. We and my husband made a few stops including a very special overlook that seemed a bit of a secret.
I will recommend this tour for all of my friends!
Amazing Hue day trip with Anthony and Loan
This company proved themselves a very professional company from the minute we filled out a booking request online. Within seconds I received a Gmail to confirm the service.
On the day itself our driver ANTHONY Mai was absolutely amazing – welcoming us with water and the most comfortable air conditioned car (37 degrees out so very needed) which smelled sparkling clean. He drove us to Hue stopping at the Hai Van pass and Lang Co beach for some photos. He was extremely friendly and spoke English with us – telling us different information on the way.
Once in Hue we were joined by Loan (Jen) our tour guide who showed us around the Imperial Palace and Pagoda. She has brilliant English, a sparkling sense of humour and lots of fun stories to help us remember the history of each place we visited.
Our lunch in Madame Thu was also a huge highlight as we sampled delicious local dishes and cooled off from the hot outdoors.
At the end Anthony drove us back to Hoi An. 100% recommend this company !
Best way to see this part of vietnam!
Tu was an excellent tour guide. She made our visit to this part of Vietnam memorable and interesting. Best way to see central Vietnam, in my opinion.
I had a lot of fun in Vietnam and will highly recommend this tour.
Great tour!
The morning started out with our excellent guide Tu, already waiting for us, greeting us with a good morning and a big smile. The tour was great and Tu took her time telling us about the history behind the places we visited.
What can I say….amazing! Highly recommended.
Great day trip from Hoi an to Hue
Our guide Tuan was a wealth of knowledge and made the trip so memorable. His knowledge was incredible and it was insightful to hear his perspective on Vietnamese culture and history. We enjoyed all of the stops along the way too , and the car was comfortable for our group of four adults.
Highly recommend the company and our guide Mr Tuan!
