Highly recommended!

The entire itinerary was nice, well-organized, and the sights were truly worth seeing. The booked option for the An Bang Cemetery was particularly impressive; you should definitely include it! Pho the driver was great, thanks again

Was a good experience...

Was a good experience travelling from Hue to Hoi An. Our driver, Pho was prompt and communicated well. We stopped at the lagoon, on the Hai Van Pass and at Ba Na Hills (Sunworld). A lot of the day is taken up at Sun World which is quite expensive entry but it's massive and you could spend a whole day there.

Again and again - wonderful experience

Today we drove the tour from Hue to Hoi An. It was a fantastic experience, despite high temperatures. Bin was an excellent driver, very calm with lots of explanations and lots of wit. Also, he always has a bottle of water ready for us when we were thirsty. I can highly recommend the driver I am and Hura Cars in general. On time, clean cars and competent drivers. The value for money is definitely right. I immediately booked another ride with Hura Cars.

Everything perfect

Hura Cars was very quick to respond to my request for a quote. We stayed with Mr. Lee, a very nice and good guy, as well as a great driver. He arrived on time and, despite our hotel being in a narrow street, he made a stretch of road walk to us and then walked us to the car. We had lunch together and it was nice to chat a bit in English with him. Absolutely recommended!
