Hue City Tour: Dragon Boat, Citadel, Royal Tombs & Craft Village

  • Hue
  • Tagesausflug
  • Kleingruppe

A full day in Hue with pick-up at your Hue hotel: a dragon boat on the Perfume River to Thien Mu Pagoda, the Citadel, Dong Ba Market, a Hue lunch with royal tea, two royal tombs and Thuy Xuan incense village.

Hue is a city that rewards slowing down. The Perfume River flows quietly through it, Ngu Binh Mountain stands green with pines, and the citadel and royal tombs have witnessed the changes of Hue and Vietnam through many periods of history.

This day starts on the water, with a dragon boat to Thien Mu Pagoda, the oldest in Hue, then moves through the Citadel of the Nguyen kings and the bustle of Dong Ba Market. After a Hue lunch with royal tea and a warm herbal foot bath, the afternoon brings two royal tombs – Minh Mang and Khai Dinh – and a family workshop in Thuy Xuan where incense and conical hats are made.
