A long, but fascinating, day-long trip from Da Nang to Hue

It’s a long and interesting day to visit Hue from Da Nang. Our guide, Mr. Kahn, was terrific and the driver got us there and back in one piece (much appreciated given driving habits in Vietnam!). The “cruise” part of the day is probably the least interesting bit. It was great to have a guide inside the Imperial City in Hue, especially one who knows the history so well. We also enjoyed visiting the Heavenly Lady Pagoda and the Emperor’s mausoleum.
