Description
Discover Hue after dark from a quiet electric boat on the Perfume River. Meet your local host at Toa Kham Boat Pier and begin a relaxed 60-minute sightseeing cruise as the city lights reflect across the water.
After leaving the pier, see Truong Tien Bridge and Dong Ba Market from the river. Continue past the White Lotus and Saigon Morin hotels, the riverside promenade, and the evening activity along both banks of the Perfume River.
Cruise beneath Phu Xuan Bridge and enjoy views of historic riverside landmarks such as Nghinh Luong Dinh, Phu Van Lau, and the Quoc Hoc Stele.
The boat continues past Da Vien Bridge and the historic Bach Ho railway bridge before reaching Nguyen Hoang Bridge, a modern landmark illuminated by an artistic lighting system. The boat turns around here for the return journey.
On the way back, stop near Nghinh Luong Dinh to take part in a floating-lantern activity and make a wish for peace, luck, and happiness on the Perfume River.
Return to Toa Kham Boat Pier at the end of the cruise.
