Great guide in beautiful city - Our guide was Nhan . He was very efficient and kind. We saw an excellent variety of places in Hue. I would recommend this tour with Nhan because he has a great way of explaining the history of Hue and Vietnam as you travel around seeing the lovely city. He has a passion for his country and for sharing its history with tourists.

Recommended 100% - We did 2 tours. One by Hue and one by Hue to Hoi An. I highly recommend them both if you are looking for what we are. They take you from one place to another and I liked this Enterprise a lot because they adapt to your pace without rushing or if you prefer to go to one place instead of another. They give you fresh water all the time which is greatly appreciated every time you get back in the car. I found it very comfortable and at your pace. They help you buy tickets and recommend restaurants. The first day I had to change the start time a few times and without problem they adapt. Hai was very friendly and told us a lot about Vietnam, we asked him a thousand questions along the way and he made our trip very enjoyable and fun, we learned a lot with him. Thank you so much!! 🥰
