All Hue Tours & Excursions in 2026

If Hue is Vietnam’s hidden gem, Son is one of its hidden treasures. Friendly, knowledgeable, patient and charming, Son speaks perfect English and is so much more than a driver. He is passionate about Hue and determined to share its beauty with others. We booked a city tour and ended up with a journey through Hue history, culture and so much more. Hue is incredible. Son was the cherry on the cake. We cannot recommend him highly enough.

The full day tour of Paradise Cave and Phong Nha Cave from Hue begins with an early (4:15am) pickup in Hue , and a 3.5 - 4 hour drive to Dong Hoi, but you can catch up on sleep on the very comfy van ride (though you will miss seeing the beautiful countryside as the sun rises if you do fall asleep!). The two caves are spectacular, with amazing mineral formations. Water is provided, as is lunch between visits to the two caves. You can then catch up on any further rest you may need on the return drive home to your hotel in Hue. Shout out to our very animated and friendly guide Tra (or Jessica, being her english name), who was a fountain of knowledge of the caves, the history of the area and the people who live in it. You will also get a crash course in the most important Vietnamese words, as well as tips on the ways that food is different in northern, central, and southern Vietnam. Highly recommended!!

1. A very safe driver 2. Exceptionally good English skills 3. knowledgeable about Hue and Hoi An. 4. A very passionate person about his country and people. 5. A very clever man. I look forward to meeting Sam in 10 years. I am certain he will then be a highly successful businessman with a great family around him.

The route is well designed and considerate, with experienced organisation. For me I think every part of the trip is exciting. Our guide Thuan is knowledgable, so we've learnt a lot about the history and interesting details. Nice driver and travellers also.

We did both the Imperial City half day tour and the Three Tombs tour with a driver and guide. We were lucky to have Tai as our guide for both tours. Both days were great! Amazing to see all these sights with such a friendly and knowledgeable guide! So much to see, learn and admire. The tombs are all very unique - set up in similar ways but different with each King’s unique style, taste and influence. Request Tai as your guide, if you can. He is great!

Misa is an excellent tour guide, I recommend you request her for any tour you plan in Hue. Our half-day tour was just the right length, comprehensive but not tiring (we're in our 80s). Fascinating visits to historical highlights with a relaxing boat ride. Ha is a fine, careful driver with a comfortable vehicle and plenty of cold water. You can't beat this tour.

Had a great time with Cham, on the back of his scooter visiting ~7 places. All dishes were new to me apart from Banh Mi (which was excellent), and all were great. Little spots all filled with locals so you know they’re genuine. Cham lives locally and frequents some of the places we went. As a solo traveler it was great to chat with Cham and learn more about his life and Hie in general. Highly recommend.

I did a motorbike food tour in Huế and had an amazing experience. Trang was a fantastic guide, friendly, knowledgeable, and she took me to truly local spots I never would have found on my own. Every dish was delicious, and riding around the city by motorbike made the experience even more fun. The food and the overall experience were absolutely terrific. Highly recommended!
