We saw some wonderful cultural and historical sites on this tour ,The whole experience was greatly enhanced by our wonderful guide Fi. My sister has mobility issues and we were not sure how fully she would be able to participate but Fi supported and encouraged her every step of the way.,Also because this was a private tour we are able to visit additional sites which added greatly to the total experience . Thank you Fi.,

The trip was very kindly customised for us according to our interests and time, which we very much appreciate! We were in Hue and Hoi An. We did a day trip to Phong Nha caves, very smooth and wonderful. We also did a half day of Hue (imperial citadel, Thien Mu pagoda and Khai Dinh tomb). These were with Fi, who was very knowledgable and ensured things ran smoothly for us. She had a very interesting perspective and gave us a good insight of Vietnamese life. As someone who’s very interested in history, Fi was really able to answer my questions while keeping things interesting for my partner who is less into history. After this, we went on a transfer from Hue to Hoi An via Hai Van pass with scenic stops including Marble Mountain. Highly recommend if you have time! Very comfortable ride and we enjoyed it! In Hoi An, Quân took us to My Son. He was also wonderful and very knowledgeable. He also kind enough to pack sun screen for us! Both guides were also kind enough to show us their favourite local places to eat, which we relished thoroughly! I highly recommend both the guides.
