Best friend in Vietnam
Xuan Tu is the best friend you will have in Vietnam. She took us through her home town of Da Nang to places we never would have found even if we were trying to find them for some of the best local cuisine the city has to offer. After that she took us through Hoi An and the surrounding area for 3 days using her amazing super woman powers to take us to local villagers homes and workshops where they welcomed us with open arms. She is incredibly knowledgable and passionate about her country and her job. But most importantly she is an absolute blast to have hanging out with you. We never had a dull moment and she is very funny, kind, and smart when dealing with her group. There is no one better. — Traveller: tmwilson94 from Tripadvisor
INFINITE STARS**Xuan Tu – I thought Vietnam was beautiful before, now I have tried the best all thanks to XUAN TU!!!!!!
What an amazing time! My group of 10 plus 2 professors just left Xuan Tu at her room 15 minutes ago and I already miss her! She took us around Danang/ Hoi An for the past four days, taking us to all her local friends and restuarants. I HAVE NEVER LEARNED MORE / ATE BETTER FOOD / GOT BETTER DEALS AT SHOPS !!!!!! Xuan Tu truly knows the area and more than our guide, became our friend for life. Please take a tour with her! You will not be disappointed! I am sad she will not be coming with us to Cambodia, but her spirit will travel with us and I will NEVER FORGET the great things Xuan Tu taught us / experienced with us about Vietnamese culture. — Traveller: combadas from Tripadvisor
A kindred spirit…
My friend and I found a kindred spirit in Xuan Tu. She was as crazy and fun loving as we were. We didn’t have a dull moment at all during our visit to Hoi An. She picked us up from our hotel at Da Nang with a driver, Binh. Binh is an efficient driver and I so love the selection of English songs he has in his car. Xuan Tu, who also goes by the name of Passion Cookie is indeed very knowledgeable about the places we visited and I do highly recommended her to anyone who wishes for a tour guide at Da Nang/ Hoi An and its surrounding areas. I will definitely look her up on my next visit to Da Nang again! Thank you loads for making my visit to Hoi An such a memorable one, Xuan Tu! — Traveller: kimmiz78 from Tripadvisor
Fantastic Tour with Xuan Tu
Whilst in Da Nang, my family booked a tour with Xuan Tu after reading some fantastic trip advisor reports about her tours. Unfortunately, come the day of the tour, my brother and I were ill and after struggling through the first hour of the tour, Xuan Tu kindly offered to post-pone the tour to the following day with us! The entire family was very grateful for this as Xuan Tu had to assign another tour guide to a tour she was supposed to take on the next day. Her commitment and flexibility in this situation was very commendable and we were all very impressed. We also enjoyed Xuan Tu’s bubbly and kind personality and her fantastic sense of humour! It was very easy to communicate with Xuan Tu as her English was outstanding, and her knowledge of Hoi An and Da Nang was also very impressive. The entire family loved our tour with Xuan Tu, learnt about the history and attractions in Da Nang and Hoi An, and made a new lifelong friend. — Traveller: Kat_ellis01 from Tripadvisor
Great tour guide! Worth every penny!
I contacted XuanTu (pronounced Song Tu) for a customised tour because of the reviews here, and certainly wasn’t disappointed! My girlfriend and I wanted to cover specific sights from Ling Ung Pagoda/Lady Buddha, Marble Mountain, and My Son and she managed to fit it all into one day along with a quick run to Han Market and an awesome banh xeo lunch in Da Nang. Her english is great, no worries on that front. Her knowledge of the areas, its history, the people, and how things were constructed made a huge difference; those places would be half as interesting should we have went by ourselves with only a driver. We certainly learnt a lot about local life in Danang and Vietnam in general and made a new friend! Lastly, the price may at first appear to be on the high side and be prohibitive for some, but having done the research and experiencing her service first hand, my opinion is that it’s a very fair rate. Highly recommended! — Traveller: Monsterrr from Tripadvisor
