Explore the Imperial City of Hue – A 2.5-Hour Guided Walking Tour (Only One Tour Daily) 

Hello! I’m Tuan, and I warmly invite you to join me on a captivating 2.5-hour walking tour through the Imperial City of Hue — Vietnam’s former royal capital and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 

This is not just any tour — I personally guide only one tour each day, ensuring you have my full attention and a truly special experience. 

As we wander through this historic citadel, I’ll share the legacy of the Nguyen Dynasty, fascinating royal traditions, and the stunning architecture that once sheltered emperors and mandarins.

We’ll pass through imposing gates and visit highlights like the majestic Thai Hoa Palace, the Forbidden Purple City, and hidden corners full of secrets and charm. 

Along the way, I’ll share local stories and insights you won’t find in any guidebook — bringing Hue’s rich past vividly to life.
