Thank you to our guide V for a very enjoyable day! It rained a lot during our tour but we were still able to learn a lot about Hue. The Imperial Citadel is impressive even though only 30% of structures have been restored.

this tour was a perfect way to experience the beauty of Lang Co Bay and the history of Hue in a day! The English-speaking guide was knowledgeable and shared interesting stories about the area’s rich culture and history. Lang Co Bay’s scenery was absolutely stunning, and we had time to enjoy the beaches and take photos. The Hue City portion was also fantastic, especially visiting the Imperial City and learning about the Nguyen dynasty. It was a well-organized day with a good mix of relaxation and exploration. Highly recommended
