We had such a wonderful day exploring Hue with An as our guide. From the moment we met him, we felt completely at ease, and he made the whole day so enjoyable. The train journey from Da Nang through the Hải Vân Pass was a real highlight for us. The scenery was beautiful, and the dining car was an experience in itself, with live music, salt coffee and breakfast. It was such a fun and memorable way to travel. We visited Lang Co Beach, admired some gorgeous local pearls, then moved on and explored the Hue Historic Citadel followed by a delicious lunch at a lovely local restaurant. We also visited the Pagoda of the Celestial Lady and the Mausoleum of Emperor Khai Dinh — both fascinating and very different experiences. What really made the day special was An. He was incredibly knowledgeable; He shared stories and cultural insights which brought the places we visited to life, and we particularly enjoyed his tips about feng shui. We laughed, learned a lot and thoroughly enjoyed spending the day with him and we had a real sense of the history, culture and everyday life of the area. A truly memorable day and one we’ll look back on very fondly. Thank you, An, for making our visit to Hue so special

Did the Hue day trip from Danang with Sam and it was honestly one of the best days of my Vietnam trip! Started with the beautiful Heritage Train ride - such a scenic and unique experience. Then Sam took us to the stunning Lagoon, the majestic Hue Citadel, a peaceful Pagoda, and the royal Tomb. Every place was perfectly timed, no rush, and Sam explained the history so well with so much passion. What made it extra special was Sam himself. He was such an amazing host - so caring, always checking on everyone, making sure we were comfortable, hydrated, and enjoying. And he arranged the most delicious lunch! Authentic Hue food, so flavourful - one of the best meals had in Vietnam. If you are planning a day trip to Hue from Danang, go with Sam. He doesn't just take you places, he makes you feel taken care of. Highly, highly recommend! Thank you Sam for such a memorable day!

Great Experience I just completed a 9 day trip through 4 cities in Veitnam with VM Travel and couldn't have been more satisfied. The guides they provided were pleasant, helpful, knowledgeable, can't say enough good things about them. They were on top of the transportation involved, meals, any special needs of anyone. Really was very impressed with the whole program and would recommend giving them a shot in any Veitnam trips.

Our guide Thanh (John) was incredible. Shared his knowledge and insight about the religious and cultural aspects of the areas we visited and pointed out things that added so much more meaning to our experience. We felt safe and comfortable as we were guided through multiple stops, and picked up and dropped back to our accommodation in total comfort

We visited the offices and Jamie was so helpful, polite and friendly. Welcomed us even before we walked into the door. We went through a package for Bana Hill. We were looking at just the ticket. No pushing or any pressure. It was me who asked for the package tour and she gave us a great deal. Thank you so much to Jamie for helping us and giving us a great deal. We can’t wait for our trip. Definitely come here rather than the Sun website which is very confusing, come here and speak to them and get it sorted 👌🏽.

We went on a day tour with VM Travel to Hue. Sam was our tour guide. We started the day on the heritage train to Hue. It was quite an experience for the children. We enjoyed the ride and the van was there to take us to a oyster farm and pearl centre once we disembarked. We went to the citadel tour and had a wonderful lunch afterwards. We enjoyed a short trip to the local market. The freeze dried strawberries are the best value for money. Then we went to the tomb of the 12th emperor. The ride back to Da Nang was smooth as well. Highly recommend. Sam explained the history very well and took good care of us.

A huge shoutout to Mr. Thor for being such an amazing tour guide during our trip to Hoi An! From the day before the tour itself, he communicated with us very clearly and professionally providing detailed instructions on the meeting point, explaining the itinerary well, and making everything easy and stress-free for us. Throughout the tour, his explanations about the history and culture of Hoi An were informative, engaging, and easy to follow. What stood out the most was his patience, kindness, and attentiveness, especially since we were travelling with two young children. He was extremely understanding and always made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. We were also joined by two other travellers from France and India, and Mr. Thor did a wonderful job bringing everyone together. By the end of the tour, we genuinely felt like friends, which made the experience even more memorable and special. VM Travel is truly fortunate to have someone like Mr. Thor on their team. His attitude, professionalism, and warm personality made a lasting impression on us, and he absolutely deserves recognition and appreciation for the excellent work he does. Highly recommended!

Goede, fijne manier van reizen! In Hoi An ben ik opgehaald door Son. Hij heeft mij onderweg naar Hue een aantal mooie stops laten zien waaronder de Marble Mountains, aan het einde van fantastische route de Hai van Pass Lang Co Beach en Lap An Lagoon. Goede chauffeur en uiterst vriendelijk. 2 dagen later stond hij weer voor m’n hotel in Hue voor een lange rit richting Phong Nha. Onderweg wat over de oorlog gepraat en heeft hij mij de verwoestingen laten zien. Eenmaal de nieuwe snelweg op reden we al snel Phong binnen. Ik was erg blij met Son als chauffeur 🙏

Great communication from them after booking tickets to Ba Na Hills Booked our tickets online with VM Travel for Ba Na Hills whilst we were in Da Nang. They responded immediately with confirmation and advised that I’d have the tickets the following morning via email & WhatsApp (as we were going the day following). We had the tickets early morning on the day before we were going. Their communication with us was fabulous. Highly recommend them when booking tickets

Itinerary

Your trip begins with a pick-up from your hotel in Hue. Our driver will meet you at your hotel and start the drive to Phong Nha. You can choose to go straight from Hue to Phong Nha or stop to visit some of the historical and cultural highlights such as La Vang Holy Land, Quang Tri Citadel or Hien Luong Bridge.

  • La Vang Holy Land is a significant pilgrimage site for Catholics in Vietnam. It is believed to be the place where the Virgin Mary appeared to Catholic followers in the late 18th century, offering comfort during a time of persecution. The sanctuary has become a center of Catholic faith and a major destination for religious tourism in Vietnam.
  • The Quang Tri Citadel is a historic site that dates back to the 19th century, built under the reign of the Nguyen Dynasty. Located in Quang Tri Town, the citadel played an important role in Vietnam’s military history, particularly during the Vietnam War. The ruins of the citadel are a powerful reminder of the devastation caused during the war and the resilience of the Vietnamese people.
  • The Hien Luong Bridge is a historic landmark that spans the Ben Hai River in Quang Tri Province. The bridge is most famous for its role during the period of the Vietnam War when it served as the de facto border between North and South Vietnam, splitting the country in two along the 17th parallel.

Along the way, you’ll stop for a break in Dong Hoi, a city of Quang Binh Province. This coastal city is known for its beautiful beaches and vibrant local culture. Here, you can stretch your legs, enjoy a quick snack, or explore some of the local attractions.

After the scenic drive, arrive at Phong Nha Town, home to Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park, one of Vietnam’s most famous UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The park is home to some of the largest and most spectacular caves in the world.

Your journey from Hue to Phong Nha by private car concludes as you are dropped off at your hotel.

Routes and Stop Over

Located in Quang Tri Province, about 60 km north of Hue, La Vang Holy Land is an important pilgrimage site for Vietnamese Catholics. It is believed that the Virgin Mary appeared here in the late 18th century to comfort and protect local believers during a time of persecution. Today, the site features a peaceful church complex, beautiful gardens, and a statue of the Virgin Mary with Vietnamese features, attracting both the faithful and curious travellers alike.

If you're travelling from Hue to Phong Nha by private car, stopping at La Vang Holy Land can be a meaningful and peaceful break in your journey. It’s not only a religious site, but also a culturally rich and serene spot that offers insight into Vietnam's spiritual history.

  • Duration: 1 hour visit
  • Entrance Fees: Free

Hue to Phong Nha by car via La Vang Holy Land

The Vinh Moc Tunnels are a powerful reminder of Vietnam’s wartime history. Located in Quang Tri Province near the former DMZ (Demilitarized Zone), this underground village was built by local villagers to shelter from intense U.S. bombing during the Vietnam War. The tunnels stretch nearly 2 kilometres and include living quarters, meeting rooms, and even a maternity ward all beneath the earth. Visiting the site gives you a deep and moving insight into the resilience and strength of the local people.

If you're travelling from Hue to Phong Nha by private car, visiting the Vinh Moc Tunnels is a highly recommended stop. It adds a historical and educational layer to your journey, especially if you're interested in Vietnam’s wartime past. The site is well-preserved, less crowded than other historical attractions, and conveniently located on the coastal route. It’s a unique experience that provides context to the region's history before reaching the natural wonders of Phong Nha.

  • Duration: 1 hour visit
  • Entrance Fees: 50.000 vnđ
