Hoi An To Hue Day Trip Itinerary
In the morning
07:00-07:30: To begin the trip, our driver follows your requested time and location to pick you up on time. After you meet him, he will help you with your luggage, if needed, and make sure you stay good in your seats. Then the round trip from Hoian to Hue starts!
09:00: You reach Hai Van Pass, or Ocean Cloud Pass, which is one of the most challenging passes in Vietnam. You will stop at the highest peak to admire the magnificent scenery and take some pictures. You can also enjoy some Vietnamese coffee while seeing the breathtaking panorama of Da Nang City.
Besides, you can drop by Lang Co Beach to view Lang Co Bay’s fairyland-like scenery. It gives every tourist a long-lasting impression thanks to the white sand embracing the crystal clear seawater. Also, the faraway Bach Ma Mountain vaguely embellishes the landscape. You will love to breathe in good air and take some photos at this place!
11:30: You arrive in Hue City and pick up your local tour guide to discover the Khai Dinh Tomb together. This is the burial and worship place of the Nguyen Dynasty’s 12th Emperor Khai Dinh.
