A must-see attraction complex that you can not miss when you are in Hue. I bought a combo 4, including Hue Citadel, Tu Duc, Minh Mang, and Khai Dinh Tombs on Klook to visit 2 days, highly recommend!

It's very close to the Royal Palace. There are many wonderful works of art. It's not crowded, so you can take your time to look around. Be sure to also visit the Hàm Nghi facility next door. You can see the paintings and history of the last Nguyen Dynasty king in Algeria.

The guide explained a lot to me in English, even though I was the only foreign customer. Thank you very much. It was a wonderful cruise, with a special afternoon tea in an air-conditioned room. The scenery was also amazing. I was even able to see the rainbow for a long time.

After the Klook QR voucher, you will receive an official voucher for admission by email, so be sure to check it. You cannot enter unless you present it. The email will be sent a while after booking. Once inside, it's so spacious that it might be a good idea to rent a bicycle. It's a great place.

The tour offered a good balance of history, culture, and even a taste of local cuisine. I appreciate the small group size, which made the experience more personal. Overall, the tour was great and the tour guide is very knowledgeable.

Great!! With a four-hour pass, I was taken to a village where you can wear Vietnamese costumes, Tu Duc Tomb, and Khai Dinh Tomb. It's hard to get there by Grab taxi, so I'm grateful! The staff and the driver are also nice. The staff can speak English, and you can communicate with the driver without any problems using a translator. It's a good idea to let them know the time you'll be back on the bus each time.
