An informative and interesting tour of Vietnam's history in Hue

Kerry_W, Mar 2024
We had a great tour with guide Fi. There were 9 of us on our trip. We were first of 3 picks ups and it was all very quick- we were on the dragon boat within 30mins. It was a very hot day but the air conditioned mini bus in-between visits provided respite. Fi was very knowledgeable, friendly and kind, she answered all our questions and took things at a nice pace, stopping us in the shade to talk. She returned a shirt to change it for one of the guests on the guide when we realised a stain on it after he purchased it. And the next day we bumped into her going into a tomb by ourselves (not in a tour) and she kindly helped us get in! Request her if you can, you won't be disappointed. The tour was informative and just the right about of time in the heat. We were back to the hotel and in the pool by 1pm.
