Emperor's Legacy: Hue Royal Palaces & Hai Van Pass Thrill

It was a long day drip from Da Nang to Hue through scenic the Hai Van Pass through the highlands. Weather was off and on showers, but to be expected for that time of year but we were ready for it. Local Hue guide Nhien was very knowledgeable and made it work.

We had an action-packed and unforgettable day trip to Huế, filled with history, beauty, and heartwarming moments. Our journey began with a picturesque drive from Hội An, with a quick stop to capture the scenic views before heading straight into our first adventure—a tranquil boat ride along the Perfume River. From there, we explored the majestic Imperial City and wandered through the solemn grandeur of a royal king’s tomb, all while soaking up centuries of rich Vietnamese history. Every site came to life thanks to our incredible guide, Mr. Minh, whose deep knowledge and storytelling brought depth and meaning to every moment. The weather surprised us with an unseasonal chill, but what stood out most was Mr. Minh’s kindness and care—he noticed I was cold and, without hesitation, brought me a warm coat from his own home. It was a gesture that felt genuinely fatherly, and one I won’t forget. His attentiveness extended beyond comfort—he made sure we were safe, informed, and at ease throughout the entire day. Mr. Minh didn’t just guide a tour; he created an experience filled with warmth, wisdom, and personal care. He truly went above and beyond, and for that, I’m incredibly grateful. I can't recommend Andy tours enough!

We booked a private transfer with Andy Tours for a day at Hue. The driver, Dong was lovely and provided us with water during the journey. We specifically booked transfer, not a guided tour as we wanted the freedom to explore. He dropped us at each attractions and we met him afterwards at an agreed pick up. The day went really well. We did everything we wanted to do at our pace and Dong found us a cafe as well so we could have a rest and some tea :)

Our day with our guide Le and driver Hill was excellent. Le was very informative on all things we saw and questions we asked about Vietnam He went out of his way to get us anything we needed. We also had great weather which made the trip even more pleasant

This was the best private tour we did in Vietnam. The sights were amazing and our tour guide Nhiem was so knowledgeable and made the day so memorable. Lunch was simply divine, highly recommend this tour, so much in fact we would do it again!

Mr Le was a brilliant tour guide, very knowledgable and interactive. Tour was very well organised and lunch was delishious. All the sites were magnificent and worth visiting. Many thanks to the tour operators and especially Mr Le for making our trip a very memorable one. We would highly recommend this company and our guide Mr Le

We were picked up promptly at our hotel in Hoi An and that's about all we needed to do...As we made the 2 hr drive to Hua via the Hai Van Pass, Mr Hung prepared us with some historical facts about the Pass and also introduced us to Hua and it's place in Vietnam's history with literature he had personally prepared. He was very good at his history....We stopped for lunch and I immediately sensed this would be THE lunch...it was that good. The lunch was worth the tour. By the time we were dropped off at our hotel, we were done with a beautiful day by Andy.

Definitely splurge for a private tour! Thank me later. Mr. Kong (English speaking tour guide) and Mr. Hai (driver) were both great! Pros/highlights: + comfy air conditioned vehicle + asked the tour guide to help me find banh beo and banh loc and they did! + driver was very safe and opened the door for us every time + personalized experience, went at the pace we preferred + learned a lot/very knowledgeable guide Thank you Mr. Kong and Mr. Hai!

We had a very enjoyable day in Hue. The car very confortable and the travel guides very kind. Very complete experience, fastinating places and tasty food.

What an awesome way to experience the cultural history of Vietnam. The guide is very knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. The lunch was so delicious and more than what we expected , the scenery is so beautifully amazing and the sites visited were very interesting. We loved listening to Kongs stories about the culture. We highly recommend any tour with Kong. Thank you so much 😊😊😊😊😊
