    Private Dragon Boat Tour - Perfume River
    We booked last minute through Pham Travel for a sunset Dragon Boat tour of the Perfume River. Mr Linh arranged to pick us up at our hotel, and we were pleasantly surprised to have a short cyclo transfer from our hotel to the boat wharf. It was very interesting and fun. When we arrived Mr Linh had arranged a pleasant meal for us on board as well. The boat was fun and we were taken along the river to a wonderful pagoda, Thien Mu. The sunset was beautiful and enjoyed our return by dragon boat. We also had a special treat afterwards of local folk music cruise and lantern lighting on the river. Highly recommend Mr Linh and Pham Travel, easy communication too

    Cu Chi Tunnels with Typhoon Honey
    Highly recommend the half day tour out of Ho Chi Minh to the Cu Chi tunnels. Our guide Typhoon Honey was extremely funny and informative. The history is important and well delivered. Can also shoot some guns if that’s what you’re into. Don’t need to enter the tunnels to see and experience everything. Thank you TH.

    Brilliant tour
    Brilliant tour, the sights are stunning and having a guide makes such a difference as you can learn so much and can ask questions. Xi our guide was truly fantastic, so knowledgeable and really friendly. She also went totally above and beyond recommending restaurants when we asked and advising us on options for the motorbike tour we were looking into. Absolutely brilliant, highly recommend.

    Special experiance
    The bike ride was special but the guide made it something we will remember. The bike ride was enjoyable and quite alot easier than we thought riding through Hue. Xi our guide spoke great English and was engaging throughout. We stopped for afternoon tea before going on a short boat ride where we got good pictures along the perfume river. We enjoyed ourselves immensely. Thank you

    Hue City Tour Review
    Hoang (our guide today) was great today! He let us know the night before what time he was picking us up to make sure we had time for breakfast. He was very funny and also very informative. Even with having to battle it out in the rain, he made sure we had a great day.

    The Full Package & One-Stop Shop for your Vacation
    Best Price travel handled our entire vacation for us. We went to 4-cities. We had never used this kind of service before. It was easy and created a STRESS-free trip. Every driver and tour guide was kind, friendly, knowledgable, and on time. Also, we loved each of our hotels. As a runner, in each place we stayed there was somewhere close by for me to safely run. We loved the Hanoi Pearl Hotel. The breakfast was great. The staff was friendly. And OMG the SPA there we had the best massages of our life. We did this on the last afternoon as we waited to go to the airport. Had we done it sooner I would have done it every day LOL. All 3 of us got 90-min massages and the total cost was $92. YUP $92. Best massage of my life. The trip through them was affordable and we are 100% certain we will use them again when we go back.

    Great tour with Ms Fi
    We had two wonderful days with Ms Fi and enjoyed every moment of the tours. We visited three of the royal tombs on the first days and the citadel and two pagodas on the second. Ms Fi is a very knowledgeable and caring tour guide that will be able to answer all your questions and provide great recommendations for local food or crafts. Ask for her if you are booking this tour and you will not regret it.

This was perfect! I was picked up promptly at 8:00 and the van was really comfortable. Our guide Tuan was excellent - well informed, perfect English, delightful personality. The sites were so amazing; so much beauty, history, and tragedy all rolled into one. The boat ride on the Perfume River was fun and relaxing. Lunch was excellent and accommodated several of us who were vegetarians. The visit to the market was fun and informative. Making and watching incense being made was really interesting. Highly recommend this tour if your time in Hue is short and you want to see as much as possible in a short time.

My husband and I had a very short time to visit Hue and booked this tour hoping to get a snapshot of the city and its historical sites. The tour 100% met our expectations.

Our tour guide van Xi (pronounced ‘C’), she was absolutely lovely and provided us with a lot of historical and current facts.

We would definitely recommend this tour to other travelers visiting Hue.

An extremely well organized and interesting tour, which covers all the interesting destinations in a day. Our guide, Hoang, was extremely friendly and informative. We initially wanted to attempt to visit the destinations by ourselves but have no regrets joining this tour. Hoangs knowledge to all the destinations was tip top and it made the experience that much better, as it gave us a better understanding of the places we were visting. His English was really good as well, making communication extremely easy and he also gave us local tips and helped us understand Vietnamese culture better. The tour itself is extremely well organized as well, managing to squeeze in a variety of destinations in a short time, with a ample time spent at each place. Highly recommended.

We took the tour and had Xi (pronounced C) as our guide. She took great care of us and the little things the tour company does is appreciated. You can read the other reviews about the great things you will do and see. Xi came right to our door to get us, offered us water bottles numerous times and gave us hand wipes a couple of times. She spoke excellent English and was very professional. I have been on other tours where the guide likes to talk to much but she was great. Lovely person and so kind and thoughtful. She also would always remind us to remember our things and would kindly tell us whether or not what we would be seeing would be the only time in case we wanted a picture. All those little things really put this tour company over the top in terms of a pleasant experience

The day in question for the tour was not kind from a weather perspective, but our day was brightened with the arrival of our tour guide Xi. From the start Xi made the tour interesting with a trip to a local street market, that was followed by visits to
Hue Imperial City (The Citadel), Tomb of Khai Dinh, Tomb of Minh Mang and Museum of Royal Antiquities. A really good tour with a guide of high quality.

We have had two lovely days with Hoang as guide for us in Hue.
First tour was a half day tour on bike 🚲 in Hue and out to a village outside of Hue where we learnt a lot about how the Vietnamese agriculture. On the top we also got tried how to manœuvre in the crazy Vietnamese traffic- quite scary and fun🤣

Second tour was a day city tour where we learnt a lot about the Vietnamese history and all their emperors, their thumbs and had a tour on the perfume river and a very nice lunch.

Hoang is a very knowledgeable guy and is very attentive towards his guests, taking pictures and sharing recommendations on what to see taste etc in Vietnam 🇻🇳

We indeed can recommend the company, driver and guide - everything went smooth and was two good experiences🙂

Our guide Tuan was very professional and entertaining. We traveled in a group of 11 people in a comfortable air conditioned van . His English was good and he was nice to my children and my mom . The sites were all very different and although the day was long , it was worth it. Lunch had over average food quality according to others in the group . Our immediate family had food restrictions , so he made some swaps to accommodate without increasing the price .

This was the perfect trip for seeing multiple historical sites around Hue in one day! The guide spoke great English (was previously a Vietnamese / English teacher in Vietnam), and provide great insight into the Vietnamese culture and the history on each of the sites. He even helped me figure out transportation to my next location on short notice. Definitely recommend this trip to anyone wanting to get a glimpse into many different aspects of the Hue area in one day!

The itinerary was perfect. We got to visit many places and the activities were varied and fun.

The restaurant we had lunch at was one of the better restaurants we've been to on a tour. We were served delicious dishes (including vegetarian options).

Our guide Hoang made the tour even better. He spoke great English (the best we've encountered yet), had so much knowledge and could answer all of our questions about Hue and local life. He was very funny and lifted the atmosphere in the tour group. He also took really good pictures for us!

All in all, this was an amazing tour.
