(4 days /3 nights)

Hue - Danang - Hoi An

Day 1:  Arrival - Hue

On arrival Phu Bai Airport, you are met and transferred to hotel. Hue was once Vietnam’s feudal capital from 1802 to 1945. This small and quiet city is widely known for its magnificent architecture, pagodas and royal tombs laid in many small villages and surrounding hills. We spend this afternoon to visit Hue’s massive citadel, containing the Imperial City and the Purple Forbidden City. This royal residence was all but destroyed during the 1968 Tet Offensive, however it is still fascinating to walk among the ruins. Overnight in hotel, Hue.

Breakfast at the hotel. The beautiful riverside pagoda of Thien Mu which now becomes the symbol of Hue, and the elaborate royal tomb of Emperor Tu Duc are most interesting for their significance and architecture. We include these in a guided cruise on the Perfume River which also gives us a view of the scenic countryside as well as an enjoyable visit to the mausoleum of Emperor Minh Mang in a tranquil setting of gardens and lakes. After an impressive boat trip we return to the town and enjoy a walk to the bustling Dong Ba Market that sells a wide variety of local goods and handicrafts. Along the way we pass by many fantastic eating spots, ideal places for visitors to sample some local delicacies.
