Wonderful day trip from Hoi An to Hue Imperial City. Only six people in our party and An was a fantastic guide - friendly, funny and informative. Although the day was long - 11 hours - and the highways weren’t great, time flew and the tour was well structured. Lovely Hue-style lunch included in the price. If you’re staying in Hoi An, would totally recommend this trip. The historic sights in Hue are well worth the drive.

Wir durften die Tour spontan krankheitsbedingt ohne Aufpreis umbuchen. Unser Guide Ellie hat einen tollen Job gemacht. Hue war sehenswert.

Die Sehenswürdigkeiten waren sehr interessant. Der giude war sehr freundlich und informativ. Allerdings war im Kleinbus jeder Platz besetzt, sodass ich auf der Rückbank gesessen habe was sehr beengt und nicht bequem war.

Nice trip. Ryan is very nice. The food was good. Personally, I didn’t like the first part of the trip: the shopping part in the pearl shop and the incense shop. I would have preferred to start the trip later and skip these two. Also the first panoramic stop was not really panoramic.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Hotel pickup in Hoi An. AN AN TRAVEL HOI AN confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in. The collection window is usually a little wider than a fixed minute, because the driver is working a route around several hotels.
The price does not cover entrance fees:, hue imperial city: 200,000 vnd/person, khai dinh tomb: 150,000 vnd/person and tips and gratuities. Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
The Ba Na Hills cable car and park ticket is included only if the option says so; it is the main cost of that day. Marble Mountains has a small entry and an optional lift. Go to Ba Na early: the Golden Bridge is quiet at 8:00 and shoulder to shoulder by 10:00, and the hill is often in cloud in the afternoon.
