Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Hue Imperial City (The Citadel), Hue Vietnam
Our private Hue Full Day City Tour has to start at the amazing 19th century Citadel of Hue which surrounds the original Imperial City, the Purple Forbidden Palace and various ancient monuments. More recently in 1968, and during the Tet Offensive, the most famous “Battle of Hue” resulted in enormous damage to both the city and Citadel – you will see signs of this and rebuilding works to this day.
Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes
Stop At: Thien Mu Pagoda, Kim Long Road, Hue Vietnam
We must eventually leave the Citadel of Hue and its intriguing history to visit the very special Thien Mu (Heavenly Lady) pagoda overlooking the Perfume River which at 7 stories high originally built in 1601. If time permits we will arrange a private Dragon boat trip along the Perfume River from city to Pagoda for you to enjoy the peaceful vibe of the city from the boat. This comes with an extra charge of $15/ single boat, please note to us.
Returning to Hue city we visit Bun Bo Ly Thuong Kiet, an amazing Hue local restaurant where you can try Bun Bo Hue. It is a must-eat Hue specialty that you have to try while in the city.
Duration: 45 minutes
Stop At: Tomb of Tu Duc, Tay Nhat Hamlet, An Cuu Village, Hue 530000 Vietnam
In the later half of your Private Hue Full Day City Tour, we will take you to visit Tu Duc royal tomb. There are 7 Hue Imperial tombs built by the Nguyen kings along the Perfume River and in the surrounding countryside. Located in a narrow valley 8 km from Hue in Duong Xuan Thuong village, Tu Duc’s tomb is one of the most beautifully designed complexes and is embedded in a lush pine forest. Together with my team, you will hear story of Emperor Tu Duc and admire his quiet and peaceful work of art.
You will also have chance to visit the Incense village and make yourself this craft work.
Duration: 45 minutes
Stop At: Tomb of Minh Mang, Huong Tho, Hurong Tra, Hue 530000 Vietnam
The Art of Discipline
Minh Mang Tomb is about 20 kilometer away from Hue Center. The red and yellow lacquer building combined with the straight line of palaces will speak a lot about the Emperor’s personality himself.
Duration: 45 minutes
Stop At: Tomb of Khai Dinh, Thuy Bang Commune, Huong Thuy, 530000 Vietnam
The Fusion Art
The end of your day in Hue, we will visit the Royal tomb of Khai Dinh. This Hue attraction is a special Hue tomb that was built during the transition of Vietnam into colonized era by France. You will be amazed by its fusion art and architecture.
