Our driver Quang arrived on time and was a wonderful guide for the day. Though we only signed up for the driver, Quang answered our questions and even added a quick stop at a beautiful park to see a beautiful view of the Perfume River. At the end of our tour, we asked him to drop us somewhere for lunch. He recommended a wonderful lunch spot for us and sent additional recommendations via WhatsApp after the tour ended! Our morning with Quang was definitely a highlight of our trip to Vietnam.
Great experience would recommend

Our guide T was amazing, went out of her way to make sure the tour was exactly what we wanted. Great English and very informative. Would definitely recommend. One thing to mention is that we didn’t realise you had to purchase tickets for all tombs and the citadel on top of this price, then they asked for petrol money as-well as tips, so it is quite expensive. Just something to note.
Fun and informative tour

This tour was a great way to experience the Perfume River and visit a couple of the very impressive tombs. Nhien was a very informative guide and was great at accommodating our pace. This was definitely worth visiting Hue for.
So far, our best guide in Vietnam

Nhien was great, we loved her stories. Boat trip was missable (fog, not much to see) , but the rest was lovely!
Hung is an excellent tourguide

I went for my tour today with Hung, my private driver and though the tour itself was great, having Hung as my driver providing really interesting history and insight made the trip more exciting. He gave me a great amount of detail to work with, so when I entered each new location I knew what I was going to see and it was exciting to feel part of that history and to visualise it. Each location is beautiful and serene, great picks for a tour like this and the dragon boat cruise was fun and relaxing. I was able to take a lot of photos, take my time to explore and ask all the questions I wanted to ask to Hung once I was done seeing each location, which was great for a debrief of each place I saw. It was a superb day and after having visited the Citidel in the morning, it filled in a lot of gaps. Thank you Hung for a fantastic day.
