Phuong (Penny) was an awesome tour guide for the day, she taught us about her home city Hue and had so much knowledge and enthusiasm for Vietnamese history.

Great tour in a great place !

The tour was sooo good!!! We wanted to go fully private in Hue and this tour was perfect. We stopped everywhere we wanted to take photos, the litenary was so flexible and we had a lot of time in every stop , the citadel was just amazing place, the tour guide was very helpful and explained us everything. Soo if you want to go private in this long tour around 2,5 hours to go and another 2,5 to come back to Danang or Hoi an then this tour is for you !! Also the lunch was very very delicious! Highly recommend this tour!!
