Amazing Hue - During our tour of the Hue Imperial City, our knowledgeable and capable tour guide, Thinh of Daco Tour, provided us with extensive historical insights. His expertise allowed him to expertly answer all of our inquiries regarding Hue and the various sites we visited. We had the opportunity to explore the magnificent palace, Thien Mu Pagoda, and the intricately designed tomb of Khai Dinh, all of which left a lasting impression on us. We express our sincere gratitude to Thinh and Daco Tour for their exceptional service and the enriching experience they provided.

Hue City Tour - Would recommend this tour if you want to get a real understanding of the history of Hue. The tour guide was excellent, very knowledgeable and passionate about the history. The places visited were incredible and we could spend the time we wanted at each site as we opted for a private tour. The restaurant for lunch was good, we tried local food on a set menu that we probably wouldn’t have otherwise tried, it was very hot the day we did the tour but the guide always took us to a shady spot and the minibus had good air conditioning.

Great historical tour - Thinh was a delightful and very informative tour guide on our day trip from Da Nang to Hue, Vietnam. They were very prompt in arrival for pickup and the day went exceptionally smooth. We really enjoyed the Imperial City which served as an interesting introduction into some of the history of Vietnam. Highly recommend this tour.

Great tour of Hue and the Imperial City - Tour was above and beyond what we expected. Our guide, Thinh was tremendous. He was enthusiastic, helpful and explained everything in great detail. Would highly recommend both Dacotours and Thinh. Communication between company prior to excursion was phenomenal. We knew exactly when and where to meet. All arrangements were as described in tour synopsis. Thinh and our driver Mr. Bao let us know what we should expect and exactly what was planned. Again, great tour and would definitely use them again.

Great communication and service - recommend to anyone who has just a short time for visiting Hue - The tour was very professionally organised and engaging. The communication in advance was excellent, with the tour operator reaching out in advance to confirm our pick up arrangements (straight from and to our hotel in Danang) and dietary requirements. The car was very comfortable, water was provided, the driving was impeccable (especially considering the winding road through the Hai Van Pass) and our tour guide chatted to us about both the content of the tour and any other questions we had about the area, history and current life in Vietnam. Her English was really good which made the communication easy and enjoyable. The drive to Hue is scenic, with two stops - at a viewpoint in the Hai Van Pass and a very pretty lagoon where we could also see how locals fished for oysters. In Hue, it was very handy to have the car drop us off and pick us up from attractions that are far from each other - that alone justified booking the tour! Our tour guide gave us interesting, accessible information about the sights, not too much or too dense, and always made sure we had time for pictures too. The lunch was nice, with a tasting menu of local dishes. It wasn't the absolute best food we'd had in Vietnam but it was tasty and gave us a chance to try a few more dishes that we hadn't encountered before. There is also a short feedback form at the end, so people can give feedback directly about various aspects of the tour. Overall, the tour was really worthwhile and we enjoyed it very much. Highly recommend!

Fantastic private tour to Hue - Thinh was our tour guide extraordinaire with Dacotours Company along with Mr Bao, the driver. We had a GREAT day. Note: our pick-up was at Hilton Da Nang and it’s a 2-hour drive from there so getting shuttled there and back alone is 4-hours of your day, so well worth the ability to sit back, relax and not worry about the traffic and dodging motorbikes. And Thinh told us a ton of history of Da Nang and Vietnam in general on the way there/before we even arrived. We visited 3 major sites on Hue and Thinh gave us a ton of history about each site. It was an amazing day. He was also super attentive to our hydration and WC needs. My friend is 6’3” and was very comfortable in the vehicle too. We also stopped on the way to Hue for a WC break and there was a pearl place nearby that we had the option to go to. We also stopped at a scenic overlook. The lunch spot in Hue was really awesome - fantastic garden and food (great choice by the tour guide). Thinh was very willing to take pictures of us and for us along the way. SUPER nice guy.

Private tour to Hue - We truly enjoyed our private tour to Hue Imperial City which was guided by Mr. Phuoc in January 2023. He’s very knowledgeable, speaks really good English and a great photographer. Really an enjoyable trip.
