Insightful Conversations on Life in Vietnam

Eric organized a tour for us from Hoi An to the Royal City of Hue. We really enjoyed it—the stories and historical background were engaging, the van was comfortable and spacious, and the itinerary was flexible. What we appreciated most, however, was the conversation we had with Eric about life in Vietnam and how things work there. He has a university education, and it was genuinely fascinating to hear his perspectives and reflect on our own understanding of the country. He is very open and communicative—it’s a real pleasure to talk with him.

A great Vietnam Experience.

We were looked after by our guide Dat & our driver Mr Lucky. Had a fabulous day moving from DaNang to Hue. Loved the spacious car which was driven very safely & expertly by My Lucky. Dat gave a us a very pleasant day with great local knowledge, was super friendly and very attentive. Couldn’t recommend them highly enough to anyone wanting a great Vietnam experience.

Wonderful Private Tour

This was an amazing private tour in Hue with our friendly guide Windy(Vuong) & driver( sorry forgot his name). Windy spoke English well and a great photographer too. We had visited Lang Co bay known for its oyster farms, & Thien Mu Temple. We stopped for lunch & had a delicious & authentic Vietnamese dishes. We moved on to visit the Citadel & Imperial City & the emperors tomb. The tomb is situated uphill & need to climb steep steps but was a disappointment to know that it was just an empty tomb. The emperors were buried elsewhere, location unknown. Overall it was a great tour & glad we did it!

Operator response

We're happy to hear that you enjoyed visiting the Lang Co bay, Thien Mu Temple, Citadel, and Imperial City, and that Windy's English skills and photography added to your experience. It's great to know you also loved the delicious, authentic Vietnamese lunch! We understand your disappointment regarding the emperor's tomb and appreciate you sharing your honest feedback. We're still thrilled you had a great overall experience and are glad you chose us for your tour!

Amazing trip to Hue Imperial city

We had a great trip with Be Your Feet guide and driver. Our trip to Hue was a long day but It was worth every penny. The Imperial city was amazing and a lot history to learn and explore. Thank you for taking care of our family with kids as well. We will come back and choose Be Your Feet again.

Excellent experience

I did a long full day tour to Hue imperial city with Thao as our guide and Tung as our driver. They both were so nice, friendly and informative. It took about 3 hours driving from Hoi An to Hue. It seem to be a long driving but luckily, we had many stops on the way and the highlight was Hai Van pass with a great panorama view from mountain top. The tour was great itself. Lunch was wonderful. I can not ask for a better time. Thank you and high recommended to any visitors!

Great long day with lovely guide

I booked this trip in the last minutes and was a bit worry. But since we met our tour guide - Nam at hotel lobby, no doubt it will be a great day with his big smile of greeting. We took a long day trip but It was worth every moment. Nam was so informative and friendly. Our driver took us around safely. We had so much fun day and can't ask for a better day. Thank you!

Beautiful Hue and unique lunch experience

We start our private trip at Da Nang and greeted by friendly Eric. He spoke excellent English and also informative. The tour is also well organised. We went to Hai Van Pass and enjoyed the spectacular view from the mountain. We also stopped by Pearl town before arriving Hue Imperial City. Although it require walking under hot sun, it was worth it. The best things we had was the royal style lunch! Unique cuisine and well presented. We also visited a temple before going back. Well done and recommended.
