388 reviewed

The old imperial capital is two and a half hours north, and the road there is half the reason to go. The 15 below cover both: which trips take the Hai Van Pass and which use the tunnel, how long you actually get inside the Citadel, whether the royal tombs and Thien Mu are included, and what lunch costs.

Our guide Anh Thong/Tom (hope I'm spelling his name right) was amazing! He gave us a lot of information about Hue and the palace and pagoda and the mausoleum we saw. He made sure the trip happened punctually and we were picked up and dropped off in time! Definitely recommend you book this tour!”

“We took a 2.5 hour tour of the Citadel and the Imperial City. Our guide was knowledgeable and fun! She took us to all the highlights of the historical site. She allowed plenty of time for pictures and took time to answer our many questions. Like other reviews, we suggest this tour and not trying to walk through on your own. There is very little that is marked. We did see a few people taking a recorded tour, however, we can't speak to those. This tour was well worth the money.”
