Thank you Mr Hồng the four of us had an amazing experience. Dodging Hanoi’s traffic was a white knuckle ride but you expertly weaved your way through the busy traffic. The dragon boat was great fun and the temples, tombs were not to be missed. We particularly enjoyed king Khai dinh’s tomb which was breathtaking. As a guide you were clear, interesting, very knowledgable and spoke excellent fluent English. We would definitely recommend you to all.

My partner and I booked a leisurely one-day bike tour to three beautiful tombs and the pagoda. We did part of the tour by boat on the beautiful Parfum River. We enjoyed it very much and can highly recommend this tour!
Huy our guide knows an incredible amount about the old and the new history of Vietnam, especially about the kings and their court as well as the American war. In good English he gave us a lively understanding of the history, it was very interesting to listen to him. He does this job very professionally and passionately.
The bicycles are simple but they are perfectly adequate for this tour. Huy guided us well through the traffic so that we always felt safe.
We can highly recommend this tour with Huy!

We had such a great time today on our bicycle and boat tour with our excellent guide Huy. He is knowledge of history is exceptional and his English level is top notch. Lovely and friendly person.
The tour: a mixture of boat, bicycle and visits which makes the tour always interesting and varied.
We visited Thien Mu Pagoda, Minh Mang tomb, King Khai Dihn tomb and Tu Duc Tomb. In between, boat rides near rice fields and nature and boat rides.
We had such a good day learning about Hué history, cycling and having a good rest on the boat at the end. Highly recommended.
