DaNang // Hoi An Tour
XuanTu provided the best tour a college aged foreigner (American) could ask for! I have been in DaNang for two weeks, and by far was this the best day I have had in the city. XuanTu provided a joyful attitude the entire 12 hours we were together, and she always thought about her customers (or now friends!) before anything else! She has such great sense of humor and charm that people any ages can relate to her. She is loving, caring, happy, curious, and a GREAT listener!! Her knowledge of the sites in DaNang and Hoi An was very impressive. She provide me with a lot of great information that I would have really struggled to put together myself. Plus, she also is a great barginer so you can get the lowest price possible for any gifts you may want to purchase, and has a very good eye for amazing food venders! I also should mentioned that all XuanTo provides is (currently) in a passionate 23 year old woman. She has such amazing life goals she she is working really hard for (currently 7 days a week for 10 – 12 hours a day). I would HIGHLY recommend XuanTu as your tour guide for any trips you may want to learn about! — Traveller: Andrew V from Tripadvisor
fun but very professional!
We had a great day travelling with Xuan Tu and her partner Lam on our bicycles. I have not ridden a bike in years and it was fun seeing the countryside and meeting good people in Hoi An with the bike tour. Xuan Tu and Lam were very friendly, approachable and even if we were having fun she also had a lot to say about their place and their history. I can say that her personality and her mastery of her hometown makes her an ideal tour guide 🙂 — Traveller: JoanneChuasuan from Tripadvisor
Education tour of Hoi An and surrounding area
Xuan2 was definitely a great energy and we thoroughly enjoyed her. She has a goofy demeanor that is very pleasant and our group of 11 all found her to be fun and full of information. We did the bike tour on island in morning and Hoi An in afternoon. I personally enjoyed the Hoi An part more as it is such an awesome little town. I also highly recommend you let her take you to the #1 Bahn Mi sandwich place as they are ridiculously good and only about $1. — Traveller: wsteed01 from Tripadvisor
A guide worth relying on
It has been a most enjoyable and educational trip to Hoi An with our guide Xuan Tu who was willing to go the extra mile. Very thoughtful of our needs and we feel extremely at ease with her. Full of energy, our children enjoyed her company throughout the 1-day trip. — Traveller: Sporeanlah from Tripadvisor
Excellent tour guide, highly recommended
Guys, if you’re ever in Da Nang and/or Hoi An, book Xuan Tu as your private tour guide, and book her weeks in advance. She’s very popular, and for good reasons! Not only is she knowledgeable, but she also has a great sense of humour. Sometimes a bit cheeky 😉 but definitely in a good way. One thing I’d like to mention is how uderstanding she was when I had to cancel our first day tour. I was scheduled to arrive in Da Nang at 9am, so I booked Xuan Tu for half a day starting from 3pm. Unfortunately, my MEL-HKG flight leg was 15 minutes late and the connecting leg HKG-DAD decided to leave me behind (no thanks, Cathay Pacific…). There was no more HKG-DAD flight that day, so Cathay sent me to HCMC/Saigon to catch a Vietnam Airlines flight from HCMC to Da Nang. I found out that flight was scheduled to arrive in Da Nang at 3pm, so I called Xuan Tu to cancel our 1st day tour and apologise. Not only was she sympathetic about my plight, but she also offered to meet me in the evening for a get-to-know-you session. I was so pleasantly surprised, I bought her dinner – that was the least I could have done after my last-minute cancellation! So Xuan Tu, thank you for being a lovely tour guide. I hope to see you again very soon and I wish you all the best. (As a side note, dear readers, if you’re flying from Melbourne to Da Nang, do NOT book the Cathay Pacific evening flight. The connecting time is so tight, if your MEL-HKG leg is more than 10 minutes late – which a lot of flights are – you’re probably going to have to go through what I went through.) — Traveller: hi_its_stef from Tripadvisor
