Activity itinerary

Hai Van Pass (Pass by)

Hai Van Pass is a scenic coastal mountain road that connects Da Nang and Hue. Known as one of the most beautiful drives in Vietnam, it offers breathtaking views of the ocean, mountains, and winding roads. The pass is also rich in history, once serving as a strategic military point. A stop at the top provides stunning photo opportunities and a glimpse into Vietnam's past.

Lap An Lagoon (Pass by)

Lap An Lagoon is a peaceful brackish water lagoon located between Hue and Da Nang, near the foot of Hai Van Pass. Surrounded by mountains and overlooking the sea, it’s famous for its mirror-like water surface, especially at sunset. Visitors can enjoy fresh seafood, take stunning photos, and experience the serene beauty of central Vietnam.

Hue Imperial City (The Citadel)

  • 2h
  • Admission ticket included
Visit the Citadel which is Hue’s prime attraction, and contains the Imperial City, the Forbidden Purple City and the Emperor’s Private Residence.

Thien Mu Pagoda

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Our next stop is the Thien Mu Pagoda which is considered by many as the unofficial symbol of Hue. To reach the Pagoda, we will take one of the local Dragon Boats and cruise up the Perfume River to the Pagoda. Thien Mu is an active Buddhist monastery with origins dating back to 1601. One of its most poignant displays is a car belonging to a former monk who in 1963 drove to Saigon and set himself alight to protest against the South Vietnamese regime and its cruel treatment of Buddhist monks and followers.

Tomb of Khai Dinh

  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
We will continue to visit the most majestic Khai Dinh Tomb. There are seven significant imperial tombs along the Perfume River and surrounding countryside but this tomb is unique as it is a blend of Western and Eastern architecture.It was built for Khải Định, the twelfth Emperor of the Nguyễn dynasty. It was built from 1920 to 1931 taking 11 years to complete. It is located on a steep hill outside of the capital city of Huế. Unfortunately, this site is Khai Dinh’s royal tomb is definitely not wheelchair-friendly and has lots of stairs, so if you’re mobility-challenged, we can arrange to visit another tomb.
