Coming to Ben Toa Kham, you can experience sitting on a Dragon boat on the Perfume River, watching the banks of the Perfume River, and feeling the poetic beauty of Hue.
The old-aged Thien Mu Pagoda was built at the beginning of the 17th century by Lord Nguyen Hoang, becoming one of the earliest sacred pagodas in Hue. Thien Mu Pagoda has a history of more than 400 years and is considered a cultural and religious symbol of the dreamy Hue city.
Travel by private car to visit Hue Ancient Capital to explore the royal palaces of 13 Nguyen Dynasty kings.

The Tomb of Minh Mang is a magnificent complex showcasing the grandeur of the Nguyen Dynasty. Visitors will be captivated by its intricate architecture, serene lakes, and lush gardens.

We will end our tour of Hue here and we will take you back to your Hue hotel.
Enjoyed our full day experience with our guide, Ruby, and our driver. As a native of Hue, Ruby knows a lot about the culture and explained a lot of the hidden aspects of the city. Her English is very understandable as well
Enjoyed our private day tour with very good guide and driver. Thom was most attentive to my walking needs as a senior citizen. Learned much from his narration of emperors' lives with humor. A well-paced tour, relaxed and most interesting. Highly recommended!
My wife and I were aware of what the itinerary would ask of us, so some things that could be a challenge for some travelers turned out to be bearable for us. (Such as the extreme heat during the summertime and the amount of walking and climbing steps) Austin was a cool tour guide. He had a very bright attitude from start to finish and he delivered a lot of information with a sincere interest in the material. He had some funny remarks, where appropriate, and was attentive to our needs. The itinerary worked out just fine too, with a good pace throughout the day and good points for a break or breather. Overall, it was an outstanding tour! Thanks again to Austin and the team!
Excellent experience, the tour is well designed to cover the important aspects of the area. It was great fun, we were looked after incredibly well by ms Anna and Mr my. Great lunch, great company, highly recommended.
Hue is definitely worth the visit. The city has beautiful monuments and a fascinating history. Unfortunately though our English-speaking guide barely spoke English and we missed most of the explanation. I am not sure when we will be able to visit this city again and this tour operator did not abide by its basic service level agreement. Unacceptable. The boat on the Perfume River had an engine so loud that it rendered what should have been a beautiful cruise, unenjoyable.
We toured Hue City with Long and had a lovely time! The tour is an efficient way to see all the key sights in one day. The help of a guide adds a dimension of historical context and understanding. Long shared his deep knowledge of the Hue region and helped us understand its importance in Vietnam's history. The tour is thoughtfully paced and well organized, with stops/breaks added just when you need them. The tour is operated with a driver separate from the guide which helps to increase efficiency (drop offs and pick ups are much easier this way). If you have limited time in Hue or it is your first time in the region and you are keen to get a foundational understanding, this tour is a great option.
Such an interesting day. Our guide was so knowledgable and helped us to understand the history. Both the guide and driver were really friendly . A really fun day!
Great trip and made very informative and special thanks to our guide Le Thang Beer (whom we booked extra through the same agency). I do recommend getting a guide - so many interesting information about history of Vietnam, both historic and modern. And on a personal note, a lovely person to hang out with :) five stars all the way!!! Very easy contact through WhatsApp
We've had a wonderful trip trough Hue and the Imperial city. It was an very beautiful and fun tour. We had an amazing guide. We learned a lot about the city and the history about the kings. We would recommend this tour of you want to explore Hue and the history of Vietnam.😃
I don't like writing reviews, but now this is exactly what I want to do after finishing this tour The attractions cover all I need to explore when coming to Hue. Admittedly, traveling by boat is a plus, it makes the journey interesting. Morning - An experienced tour guide accompanied me, his English is also very good. I would highly recommend this tour
During our stay in Hue, our family arranged three tours with Samtour. The first was the Imperial City tour, the second to the DMZ and the third to Hoi An. I cannot recommend this company enough. They were super-friendly, very helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed all of our excursions. If you are in Hue I would recommend you book any tours through them.
After booking the tour, the operator contacted me quickly and professionally. At the same time, Duy left a deep impression with his professionalism as a tour guide. And I think using the extra boat during the tour is very interesting, it moves at a moderate speed so i have enough time to feel the scenery. I really recommend this tour
Our tour guide was LyLy and she was perfect. Very knowledgeable about Hue and history. Very considerate – she always found a shaded spot for us to stand, we were provided with cold water and the tour pace was adjusted to our capabilities. We wanted to do some changes to the order of attractions. It wasn't a problem at all, LyLy made everything just like we wanted. Highly recommended if you want to known about attractions in Hue.
Was A perfect Tour with a druver who was not only a secure and reppnsible driver but also a perfect Tour guide with much knowledge about history and cistoms of the peeople of Vietnam. I can stro ngly recommend him, we askrd him to do with us next day the Tour from Hue to Hoi An too. Thakks to Mr Loi.!
Loi was a fabulous guide with great English and a sunny personality. He really listened to what we asked for and delivered exactly what we wanted. His car is comfortable, he told us many stories about the emperors a d the pagoda as well as introducing us to new foods we had never tried. This tour was excellent value for money and Tony arranged it for us in the same day. A very flexible and helpful company.
The Hue tour we did today with Ben was great! He is from Hue, so he knew all the places very well. This tour with him was actually the second one in two days we booked with the company and we had the pleasure of Ben's assistance! He is very knowledgeable, and also flexible, ready to change the itinerary based on our interest. At the end of the tour he also dropped us off at the airport. Ben has a great personality and made us feel very good in both tours! Highly recommended!!
We actually did it by car and not boat but was fantastic. The driver was very nice and careful and we spent as much time as we wanted in each tomb, never felt we had to rush. I suggest booking as there are no taxi when you reach the tombs, so better having an organised one. The driver was super punctual.
We had booked a private tour to see the different Things to do in the Hue region. Our driver Ten was a really nice guy. He was very welcoming and brought us to the most beautiful places also for the pictures. Because we love Vietnamese coffee we visited two beautiful cafes. Highly recommended. Our highlights. - Visit Lap An lagoon - Visit Lang Co beach - Visit Hai Van pass - Visit Golden Bridge (Ba Na Hills) - Visit Marble Mountain
Having only one day to visit Hué, we relied on Ben who allowed us to appreciate everything in the day. Some special notes: 1. Fresh water on board 2. Fan on board 3. Stop at a typical kiosk to let us taste local food characteristic of Hué We highly recommend this experience to everyone. Thank you so much Ben!
Wir hatten einen richtig tollen Tag mit Lyly! Sie war unglaublich freundlich und hat uns so viele Informationen gegeben! Lyly ist ein ganz toller Mensch!
We contacted Sam Tour by WhatsApp for our excursion everything went very well we were with a careful and caring driver as well as the very professional guide I recommend this excursion which is very good Thanks to Samtour for this wonderful day
Very nice tour to the pagoda and citadel and tombs. Loi took us everywhere safely and told us all about it. Highly recommended
Sehr schöne und informative Tour, der Guide Quan war sehr nett und ist auf alle Wünsche eingegangen.
We visited the Thien Mu pagoda then the Minh Mang and Khai Dinh temples with Loi for one day. Everything was very well organized (boat, car). Loi provided us with explanations about the places visited and demonstrated great friendliness and impeccable professionalism. He was always very punctual and also did everything to satisfy our requests (for example finding a store to buy coffee in a few minutes!). I recommend Loi without any reservation!
