Description
Experience Hue from two different perspectives as you combine a relaxing journey along the Perfume River with a private sightseeing trip through the former imperial capital.
Begin with pickup from your hotel in Hue and travel by private car to Toa Kham Boat Station. Board a local boat and leave the busy streets behind as you cruise along the Perfume River, watching the riverbanks and daily life of Hue unfold around you.
Step ashore at Thien Mu Pagoda, one of Hue's best-known riverside landmarks. Take time to explore the pagoda grounds, see its distinctive seven-story tower, and enjoy the peaceful setting above the Perfume River.
Continue, we go to Minh Mang by pricate car.
Explore Minh Mang Tomb, where traditional Nguyen Dynasty architecture is arranged among courtyards, lakes, gates, and tree-covered surroundings. Rather than simply arriving by road, approaching this part of Hue by river gives the visit a different sense of place.
After your visit, meet your driver and continue by private air-conditioned car to Tu Duc Tomb. Walk through one of Hue's most atmospheric royal complexes, known for its temples, pavilions, gardens, and peaceful lakeside setting.
Before returning to your hotel, stop at Thuy Xuan Incense Village. See colorful bundles of incense displayed along the roadside, learn about a traditional local craft, and have time for photos. There is no requirement to purchase anything.
Finish the experience with a comfortable private transfer back to your hotel in Hue.
