Great food tour on cyclos
Great tour, lovely guide. We were picked up from our hotel and headed out in to the Hue streets for first cyclo experience!
Our cyclo ‘drivers’ were super careful with the cargo and it added an exhilarating dimension to the trip. We ate at some really interesting places and more importantly tried dishes we hadn’t tried before. Our guide Thang was great and good company too. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to other travelers.

Gourmet Sightseeing by Night
they say hue has the best food in vietnam, because the kings used to live there. just like paris for france. not only did we enjoy the food but also our hue by night sightseeing tour (5 pm tour). the stops are planned expertly at some distance so you have time to digest the last course and see a lot on a longer ride. and on the cyclo you have a nice wide angle view.
