  1. My Linh
    As a Vietnamese who has been abroad for a long time, returning with my American husband. SAMTOUR gave me a surprise gift on the return day that made me cry with happiness. Despite the development in Vietnam, Hue remains peaceful to me. During the three days of this journey, I felt genuinely happy, and everything was perfect. A special thanks to our tour guide, Mr. Khanh.
  2. Demian Meyer
    This is my private tour program, and I am extremely satisfied. There is no noise or jostling when getting on the bus; instead, we have a private car dedicated to us, eliminating the need to wait for anyone. I spent three days with my wife immediately after our wedding. Our tour guide is highly knowledgeable, polite, and considerate. He accompanies and assists us when necessary, allowing us to enjoy completely private and intimate moments. The bedrooms are clean, the food is excellent, and the attractions are interesting. I appreciate everything that has happened in the past few days. It has been a fantastic experience!
  3. William Smith
    My family has 4 people, we just completed a 3-day trip organized by SAMTOUR. We felt very happy on this trip, this was a tour with only 4 people, and the schedule was really comfortable and did not make us tired. There is a private tour guide accompanying us throughout the journey (After dinner is each person's private time). The bedroom is very spacious and clean, my family is divided into 2 bedrooms, this is really great. I was very impressed with the street dinner in Hoi An, I had the opportunity to try many dishes that I selected myself. Other meals at the restaurant were also delicious. I especially like Ba Na Hill as well as Golden Bridge, we can take the initiative in leaving this place because this is my family's personal trip. I was thoroughly impressed by this tour, I really want to rate it more than 5 stars.
