2 reviews for Hue City Tour Half Day

  1. Liu***
    Exploring destinations with high historical value, I found it particularly interesting to sit on a boat on the Perfume River. My tour guide provided excellent support and shared a wealth of information with me.
  2. Fan***
    I am very satisfied with the way this place operates. I received support in every little detail from the moment I booked the tour until the end of the journey. I particularly enjoyed the inclusion of dragon boats in this program, going to Thien Mu Pagoda by boat was a great experience. I would have loved to explore more, but the limited time during my stay in Hue did not allow for it.
