8D7N DaNang, Hoi An & Hue
I do not usually write reviews after my trips but the enjoyable and memorable holiday in Da Nang with XUAN TU TOURS has prompted me to do so. Only 2 of us were seriously planning for the trip but Ms Xuan Tu had helped to draw up such an itinerary that we had a group of 6 to depart. Upon arrival, we were met by Mr Lam Huynh, our guide for our tour from 13/5- 20/5. The entire trip was very well organised. We had a true Vietnamese experience, visiting local markets, eating at local stalls, taking trips to offshore islands to visit the local home industries and having hand-ons activities. Every day was like a Learning Journey because Lam had really given much insight to the places, culture and food throughout the entire trip. Besides being experienced, friendly and humorous, Lam is very passionate about his job.He took the best care of our group and was flexible to our needs on the tour. One of the reasons that the trip has been most enjoyable and memorable is because of Xuan Tu and Lam who are there to provide the convenience and their best service for our group. A big THANK YOU from all of us for our wonderful holiday in Da Nang! All the best and keep up the great job! — Traveller: Elaine L from Tripadvisor
Private tour of Da Nang and Hoi An
I found Xuan Tu Tours by an online search and I booked it as a result of the very high praise by other travellers. The moment I e mailed them it was an instant response offering me a tour with a difference. We were travelling with another couple one of which had recent knee surgery and all of this was taken into account by both the company and our excellent guide Lam.It is a company who takes pride in what they do and the people they employ. On our tour day Lam accompanied by his driver was early for the tour and sat down with us in the hotel to discuss options and to see what we wanted to see and do. He adapted everything to our taste and choice. His personal manner, attitude and friendly nature made our day. He was very witty , informative and always took into account our personal needs. We started by visiting Marble Mountain in Da Nang which was very interesting and then we went onto the Lady Buddha followed by a visit to a traditional Vietnamese coffee shop which Lam frequents as his local. Lunch was had and part of the tour in a local Vietnamese cafe and we were guided by Lam on the food and drink. WE continued our tour by visiting private homes in Hoi an, one consisted of a family who make and sell rice noodles and the family received us with open arms and we got the opportunity to make them ourselves being guided by the family. We then visited a family house who specialised in weaving matting, once again we were received with open arms. Our day trip was excellent and we had the opportunity to see real life and be given information from a local guide, not eh falseness of guide books. We could not have picked a better company for this tour and certainly we could not have picked a better guide. Lam is a credit to both his country and his company. I would certainly use this company again and request Lam as our guide. — Traveller: forres24 from Tripadvisor
Danang site seeing
While visiting Danang and Hoi An we had Xuan Tu guide us around. The stories and detail of Marble Mountain and the Danang Museum really made the trip outstanding. It made for a better day trip to understand the Vietnamese heritage and how the gods, temple and sculptures all shapes the Vietnamese history and Buddhism. Quite simply, you would not want to do a day trip without Xuan Tu in this region. — Traveller: Darius G from Tripadvisor
DA NANG PRIVATE TOUR WITH XUAN TU-AMAZING WAY TO END MY EPIC VIETNAM TRIP!!!
I LOVE VIETNAM!!! From the very delicious, flavorful food to the the warm & friendly people and the rich culture & history, I fell in love with Vietnam. From the vibrant city of Ho Chi Minh to Hanoi to Halong Bay to Hoi An & Da Nang, I fell in love with Vietnam & would love to come back. I had the privilege & pleasure to do a private Da Nang tour with Xuan Tu from Xuan Tu Tours and it was one of the best, amazing, enlightening, inspiring tour I have done. I was pleasantly surprised how beautiful the city of Da Nang is. Xuan Tu brought me to the magical place of Marble Mountain. It is a beautiful place and to hear the stories/legend of this place, I found myself getting goosebumps. The caves, the intricate designs of the temples, the beautiful sculptures & mosaics & the hidden figures inside the caves, explained beautifully & clearly by Xuan Tu, I found myself being transported to a different realm. 🙂 In all honesty, you can come here & bask in the beauty of the place but it is so much enriching to learn the significance, the meaning, the relevance of the temples provided by a passionate ambassador guiding you. Xuan Tu loves her country & is very passionate about it. She taught me so much about Buddhism and as a non Buddhist person, it is very humbling & enlightening to learn the practices & traditions & how very much alive it is in Vietnam. It’s amazing how much you learn when you are open to other people’s beliefs & practices. The dominating figure of the Lady Buddha, perched above the mountain overlooking the beautiful city & coast of Da Nang, what a sight to behold!!! Beautiful bonsai trees decorating the grounds, lotus leaves & flowers floating on the pond, it’s hard not to feel relaxed & content being in this place. To wrap up my tour, Xuan Tu introduced me to the ancient civilization of the Champa kingdom. I have never heard about it till now and I think deserves the same attention & interests as the other ancient civilizations. If you are in Da Nang, please make sure to visit the Champa Sculpture museum. I love my tour so much and I can go on & on & on……in how much I love it but go ahead & contact Xuan Tu & experience the magic, the inspiration, the beauty of Da Nang. THANK YOU SO MUCH XUAN TU & I HOPE I WAS ABLE TO CONVEY HOW GRATEFUL I AM THAT I GOT TO EXPERIENCE THIS TOUR. — Traveller: fretcheb from Tripadvisor
Delicious food, beautiful scenery and professional service!
We went on an evening food tour of Hoi An and tried 15 different, equally delicious vietnamese dishes. Our guide Lam was incredibly knowledgable, easy going and tailored our evening to us! This tour has been one of the highlights of our trip to Vietnam so thank you! — Traveller: Go752890 from Tripadvisor
