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!

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.

I'm so happy to have taken this trip. Our tour guide Pea was a very friendly and informative girl. She speaks English very well. She introduced and shared a lot of information with us. I had a great day visiting Hue.

The tour was good as the itinerary was simple and not too rushed. If there’s anything to improve on, it would be the timeliness of the pick up and the managing of expectations that they’ll be late.
