Traveler reviews
Our day trip to Hue
Our guide was COCO and… really, it’s safe to say she was the highlight of our trip here in Vietnam 🇻🇳❤️ not only did I learn so much from her - she threw in her own flair and energy in this tour! There’s nothing more I appreciate than putting in lived experiences and your own past when teaching visitors about the culture. I was engaged with every word and there wasn’t never a dull moment. One of my favorite lessons in the tour was when she spoke about the turning point in Vietnam’s history that altered the way religion is discussed. That really hit home for me… now more than ever, we need to come to an understanding and remember to be kind to one another. No matter your faith 🙏🏽 I loved every aspect of our day: the imperial palace, the tomb of the 12th emperor, the incense village, EVERYTHING! I only hope to meet you again when we come back 💫

CoCo is a gem of a guide. She had tons of interesting facts and made learning about all the sites very fun. If you’re lucky enough to get her as your guide, you won’t be let down!

An Unforgettable Day Exploring Hue with an Outstanding Guide
We had an absolutely wonderful private tour today visiting the Tomb of Khai Dinh, the Imperial City in Hue, and Thien Mu Pagoda. Every stop was beautiful, fascinating, and rich with history, but what truly made the experience exceptional was our guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, engaging, and genuinely passionate about sharing the history and culture of Vietnam with us. He answered every question thoughtfully and made the entire day feel personal and special rather than rushed or scripted. Our driver also deserves recognition because the traffic can be intense, and we always felt completely safe. He was cautious, attentive, calm, and highly skilled throughout the entire journey. The included 10 course lunch was another highlight. The food was beautifully presented, delicious, and gave us the chance to experience a wide variety of local dishes. It felt far beyond what we expected from a tour meal. This was one of the best guided experiences we have had while traveling. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Da Nang or Hue.
Highly recommend if you can navigate stairs easily.
Great day out, learned about history of Vietnam, culture and architecture. A few stairs to navigate so perhaps a bit harder for some but worth it if you have the time available.
