Let's Hue - Local Friends started with a small group of university and graduate students. The team comes from diverse backgrounds, but they all have the following in common: a deep love for the city of Hue, a spirit of volunteerism, and proficiency in English. Based in Hue and knowledgeable about the city, Let's Free Hue Free Tour Guides firmly believes the team can provide tourists with a deep insight into Vietnamese culture, especially the culture of Hue, the citadel of our country.
Probably you can get a more professional guided, too, but it's a good option to hire students and support them a bit.
Our guide Davie, communicated very clearly with us via Whatsapp on how to find him. Keep in mind these are students and Davie was studying language so it was great practice! He was kind, enthusiastic and full of knowledge about the Imperial city. He shared stories and tidbits of information that we would not have found out on our own. It was sweltering hot even though we started at 9am but we had a lovely time with our guide. Keep in mind these are students and they ask that you cover their entry for the tour (which is half price). Thanks for a great time!
Vivian did a nice job, and was very friendly and personable, and knew her Vietnamese history well. She had a great way about, and we (it was just two of us on the tour), had a pleasant afternoon walking around and learning about the Imperial Citadel from our knowledgeable guide. I Enjoyed the tour, and enjoyed meeting Vivian, who is a local university student, and gives tours as part of a student tour club.
Our tour guide Vivian was brilliant! She was patient and very knowledgeable, as well as being a great photographer. The tour was really great, the palace itself is an amazing complex and the restoration that has been completed over the last few years is super impressive! I had a thousand questions and she was able to answer with an informative and well thought out answer. As she is an English student it almost goes without saying, but her English was excellent!
Best thing we did in Hue so far; Myo was incredibly clear, knowledgeable and adapted to everyone’s pace and questions. She was the kindest guide and will be a great teacher!!! We loved the palace and the story behind it, would highly recommend :)
