After checking out of the hotel, I took a car and went sightseeing as I wanted. I liked the recommended itinerary. And since the travel time was shortened a lot, I was able to leisurely enjoy a delicious lunch at the recommended place.

Our guide, Cong, was very knowledgeable about Vietnamese history, culture, and religion! Our group learned a lot from him, and he speaks English quite well. Hue is worth the long ride! Hoping that I'd get to spend a day or two in Hue next time! ❤️

I originally thought that the HUI would be okay after having been to the Forbidden City, but Vietname insisted on making it his own style.

I booked Hue discovery deluxe full day tour via klook. The tour guide Ray was wonderful , he provided an energetic and relaxed environment for the tour and a few good laughs through out. He was a wealth of knowledge of the history of imperial city and the various imperial family’s and what happened to the kings , right down the explaining the meanings behind certain symbols and paintings and carvings through out imperial city and the tomb of the 12th king. Hue is rich in history that allows to gain insight into how Vietnam was before , during the French colonisation and after the war. We were provided amble time at each location for photos and wandering around and the local Hue lunch was a winner.
