My name is Bem Nguyen, founder of Hue Local Tour. The rapid development of industry in Vietnam has radically affected agriculture and the traditional craft villages which have sustained life here for centuries. Hue Local Tour hopes to contribute to the preservation of these long-established lifestyles and cultural values through traditional village experience tours. Hue Local Tour is rooted in the community and thus, after deducting for costs, tour revenue goes to our charity funding , the Hue Foundation. Building on the sustainable tourism activities of Hue Local Tour, in mid-2019 Bem founded the Hue Foundation Charity Fund with the objective of assisting families suffering the consequences of the Vietnamese wars. We wanted to dedicate a portion of the charity’s funds to establish a scholarship fund for academically inclined children of our community who required financial assistance to attend school.
I agree with everything that has been said in previous comments. I really enjoyed this short vietnamese language session! The very interactive chat with Bem was perfect to learn a few basics to be used in everyday life: introduce yourself and ask basic questions, order in a restaurant, etc. Bem has been very helpful and very friendly. She really conveys her energy and her passion for language learning and intercultural dialogue. I really recommend this "tour" if you are spending a few days or weeks in Vietnam. Thanks Bem!
I had such a lovely time with Bem! She teaches the language in a simple and fun way. I have learn a lot of basics in a short space of time. Plus we had a very interesting exchange. She has such a beautiful energy ! A couple of hours later, I have read my notes and was able to order in Vietnamese, which is quite nice :)
We loved this language session with Bem! We met in a stunning cafe which we would never have found without her. She is such a kind and patient person and answered all of our questions and helped with the pronunciation. If I was living in Hue I would hire her as a language teacher in a heartbeat! 💛✨
