This was a great tour! My mom who has limited mobility toured with us and Ha was very patient and accommodating. She is knowledgeable, informative, thoughtful, and kind. A def must do when you're in Nha Trang!

Excellent Nha Trang tour

Perfect way to get introduced to Nha Trang. Guide was very knowledgeable and taught us many things about the local area and culture. It was a great way to spend half a day. Highly recommended.

Jennifer_P, Jan 2025
This is a great way to see the highlights of Nha Trang and learn about the history from an English speaking guide. Hai was a very knowledgeable guide who paced the tour well to our physical ability.

Great way to see the highlights of the city

Melanie_T, Aug 2024
Our tour guide was very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. It was lovely to be guided by someone who had such a great knowledge of local history, and who was able to bring it to life in such an interesting way. She was happy to recommend a fantastic local lunch stop along the way, and nothing was too much trouble. Her enthusiasm and clear enjoyment of her work was a delight. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Great tour. Lovely guide (He). This was a great way to learn about Nha Trang and Vietnamese history.

Enjoyable tour

Esther_S, Apr 2024
Our guide Linn was such a nice guide. She took us to some interesting places in Nha Trang. The War museum, the President’s palace, the historic post office and a delicious Banh Mi sandwich place for lunch, which was delicious! She was delightful! Picked us up at the Cruise port and dropped us off there also which was a big plus!

Wonderful Excursion

Leah_O, Apr 2024
Everywhere we visited was memorable and our guide Ha was great! Our favorite stop was Hon Chong, the beach is beautiful and is a perfect photo spot.

Nha Trang is a gem!

Melanie_H, Mar 2024
Loved Nha Trang and loved this tour! Our tour guide Son was communicating with me via whatsApp continuously even before our tour began. Although our cruise ship was VERY delayed with disembarking, Son patiently waited for us and reassured us our tour will not be disrupted. Son shared her love of her city and we learned so much about the area and saw the beautiful gems Nha Trang had to offer. We even got to eat Pho and local fruit. Son went up and above to give us a tour to our personal tastes! I would recommend this tour to everyone! I hope to go back to this area of Vietnam again! Absolutely beautiful!!

Excellent

Jerry_T, Mar 2024
Our tour was quite good. We had time constraints, and we were also looking to do something that was not included in the tour. Our guide (Son) made both requests possible and truly went above and beyond what we had hoped for.

A terrific tour with a great guide - Huong. Highly recommended

Colin_O, Mar 2024
Had a great trip with our guide Huong. She was amazing - very knowledgeable, kind and funny. Interesting points of interest to see. Due to our ship’s late docking we were 2 hours late for our trip. Huong didn’t seem to mind at all-we told her to cut the trip short as it wasn’t her fault but she would hear none of it. Would highly recommend

Good way see Nha Trang

Ian_S, Mar 2024
Very good tour with Am Son . Good way to see the sights and learn some history . Very knowledgeable guide and good driver . Was half day but never felt rushed .

Beautiful Nha Trang

Diane_C, Mar 2024
We were able to see and learn about parts of Nha Trang that we probably wouldn't see otherwise. We especially enjoyed the fabulous views of the city from all the locations. Our tour guide, Ha, was very knowledgeable and took very good care of us.

Excellent

Rolando_R, Mar 2024
Excellent....Huang was an excellent tour guide..... explained everything we asked..... ♡ she even told us how to pose for the pictures !

Beautiful Nha Trang

AmandaUK, Mar 2024
Our guide & driver were amazing. Firstly our guide (Hai) communicated with me ahead of time informing me of where to meet etc. Unfortunately we were on a cruise that needed to tender, which delayed us by over 2 hours! They waited for us, and despite me saying that I appreciated they could not do everything on the itinerary, they did take us to lots of wonderful places and gave some of their own time to make sure we had a wonderful day. Our expectations were most definitely exceeded. I suggest a private tour in a lovely car with your own guide is the way to go! The driver dropped us directly at each location, waiting patiently for us each time. Our guide was knowlegdeable & friendly, proving valuable information along the way. He also told us the best photo locations & kindly took lots for us, so we could focus on the sites. Highly recommend this tour. Thank you so much for a lovely afternoon.

Great tour of an interesting city!

Ginny_B, Feb 2024
Ha was a great guide. We really enjoyed the tour! Nha Trang is a very interesting city. We were also pleasantly surprised with all that was included - entry fees, refreshments…

A great place to visit!

John_D, Jan 2024
Han was our tour guide and welcomed us to Nha Trang. A beautiful, clean city with many outstanding views. Definitely a large resort area with many attractions to visit that. provide much culture. The temples were magnificent. We enjoyed this port stop so much that would entertain a longer future visit.

This half day tour was...

Jeneane_B, Jan 2024
This half day tour was more than we expected. The tour included both a tour guide and driver. Whenever we finished up at a place, our tour guide, Han, would call the driver who would be right there when we were ready. We started with a visit to the Oceanographic Museum, which was interesting and also beautiful. We spent a good deal of time at Hon Chong, inside the buildings where there was live music, local artwork, and beautifully adorned with painted lanterns. Then we walked around the scenic beach and Hon Chong Rocks overlooks and then climbed around the rocks themselves. It was a beautiful day and it was crowded, but Han was able to get some great pictures of us that looked almost as if there weren't any other tourists around. Before leaving Hon Chong, Han ordered us some delicious Vietnamese coffees. Next up was the Po Nagar Temple and Towers - it was scenic and Han took pictures of us from seemingly every vantage point. She did a great job of navigating us through the temple grounds and sharing some interesting information about the culture. When we visited Long Son Pagoda, Han let us know we could take a motorbike up to the top (can't remember the cost) or climb the approximately 200 steps - we opted for the walk, although I certainly wouldn't judge anyone for choosing to ride, because it was pretty steep. For lunch, Han took us to a local place where we could try a local Nha Trang specialty - Nem Nuoung (kind of like build-your-own pork sausage spring rolls). She ordered for us and stuck around to explain how we assemble and eat the meal. It was interesting and I'm glad we tried it! Finally, we wanted to make sure we had time to walk along the beach - since it is frequently named one of the most beautiful bays in the world. We stopped at a wide expanse of the beach, which was almost entirely empty of people. That was really nice that Han made sure we'd have an area to ourselves, and again she took great pictures of the two of us walking along the beach. All in all it was a great day, and we were pleased to have booked this tour.

Neil_B, Jan 2024
Our tour guide, Ha, was very knowledgeable and pleasant. We saw a lot of sites we would never have seen on our own.

Fun guide

Andy_D, Jan 2024
We had a brilliant guide Minh Huong She was very knowledgeable, spoke good English and was good fun. We saw all the main attractions of the city , you couldn’t have done them under your own steam

This is an absolute must!!!

Jason_L, Nov 2023
Wow. This was the most memorable tour and we travel all over the world. Son was our private guide who met us promptly at the gate. Liem was our driver and we had a very comfortable car with amazing A/C. Son was knowledgeable and took us to temples, aquarium. an amazing restaurant which was not part of the tour but we were hungry and she obliged without hesitation, bamboo house gardens scenic views and more. She spoke English very well and gave us amazing history. This is a tour you absolutely must take. You will be very happy and extremely satisfied. 10 stars!!

Thorough Experience of Nha Trang

Nicole_A, Nov 2023
Ha was an amazing tour guide. She was knowledgeable, personable and friendly. She did a wonderful job. The driver needs to communicate at least a little bit to introduce the tour where you are going at the beginning.

Nice private tour

Jade_C, Oct 2023
Ha was a great tour guide! We went to so many places on this tour and it was great having a nice air conditioned private car for the trip. Very nice tour

Memories For A Lifetime!

Chi_P, Jul 2023
Tinh tinh was such a great tour guide! He was so knowledgeable and the day felt extremely personal, rather than a scripted tour. The half day trip was perfect for us, as we were able to see all of our bucket list destinations in Nha Trang and more. I would highly recommend booking this tour if you want to learn about the rich history and culture of Nha Trang. We made memories that will last a lifetime!

Highly recommend. Enthusiastic tour guide for English speakers

Wilson_L, Jun 2023
I booked this tour for my family and had an amazing time. We was running late with no fault of the tour guide, requested to push the start back 30mins and they was very understanding. Our tour guide Tinh was amazing, he was very attentive and accommodating. Very well informed with plenty of interesting knowledge for each sections. We began at the National Oceanographic Museum, my father loved it as he is a huge fan of aquatic life. Next stop was Hon Chong which was the majority favourite. We was able to climb the rocks, took amazing photos, and Tinh thoroughly explained to us all the historical information. Next was Ponagar Temple, where you are able to pay respect to their gods, the top had a lovely view. Lastly was the Long Son Pagoda, as we arrived near the closing, there wasn’t many people which made it very tranquil and peaceful. We didn’t have enough time to see Nha Trang Mountain Church but we parked outside and he spoke to us briefly about it. Overall this experience was really fun, I would highly recommend it. Especially for a whole day, as we was limited on time so we chose the half day.

Great day out in Nha Trang

Alan_C, Apr 2023
We had a great day exploring Nha Trang with our guide and driver. The guide spoke English well and gave us detailed information about each site we visited. Can highly recommend this tour for a quick introduction on the sights of Nha Trang.

Was on a cruise and booked this excursion. Wonderful time. Driver was excellent. Never rushed, saw many things not on list of things to see. Highly recommend.

Response from Host, Feb 2020

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Wood, Thanks for your kindly review. We happy that you enjoy the tour. And it's our pleasure to serve your family. We hope to see you soon in the near future. All best wishes to your family. Warm regards, June

Nha Trang your own way

Deborah_F, Feb 2020
Although the guide’s English was difficult to understand sometimes, that is true of most native people who also speak English. We saw a lot of good sites, all that we had on our list for Nha Trang, and he took us to a wonderful coffee bar on the beach from which we could get a great view of some of the city and beach coastline, and also take a short walk down on a trail with some gorgeous rocks down at the water. Two sites were closed due to either new year schedule or midday 12-2 closings, so we did not hang around but just walked the outside and took great outside pix. If you do this, try to time a lunch for 12-2, so you can save time after 2. We just headed back to our ship a bit early, but it was a good day and a great way to see sites at your own pace with a guide’s knowledge and a reasonable price, than on a bus with 40 people going thru crowds at various paces. I would definitely recommend.

Response from Host, Feb 2020
