An excellent experience. Our guide, Tan, was friendly and very knowledgeable. He also had a driver for the car and that made for a good experience since Tan was free to talk and show us photos and maps. He had an itinerary but was free to let us do what we wanted to do with no time restrictions. Made it back to our ship with plenty of time to spare. After we got back from our trip Tan even sent us a music video with all the pictures he took of the two of us.

I contacted Tom in a bit of a panic because I was heading to Da Nang for about five days with no real plan. Tom put together an awesome itinerary for me and in a matter of hours I was scheduled with tours, transportation etc. Even better was that he was available on WhatsApp for questions during the week and was always responsive and helpful. I even left my sweatshirt on a bus one evening and Tom managed to get it back to me which is nothing short of a miracle. I can’t recommend his services enough, he’s a real professional. I will definitely reach out to firefly next time I’m in Vietnam.

We were picked up at our hotel by two lovely young ladies. They took us round Hue city, on the back of their little motorbikes, to sample the street food. Every where we stopped we were made very welcome The girls explained everything about the local dishes and made it a great fun evening. At the end of the evening they dropped us off back at our hotel. I would highly recommend this tour, even on a cool wet night.

A fantastic day - we were picked up from our place of choice in the city and driven to beautiful sights in Hue. Whilst on the journey, our driver (Mr Dzung) was really informative about the city and its history. He was great for the entire day! He waited whilst we took our time exploring each place, giving us facts about the places we saw. He also accommodated us and took us to a specific street food place we wanted and a cake shop when we wanted sweets.

I intended to go to the Citadel and Tombs independently. At the last minute I decided I wanted a guide to show me around and to explain the history. It was the best decision I made. I contacted the company directly and everything was so easy to arrange. My guide, Ms Fi was amazing. With her excellent English and local knowledge she was so informative. She was also able to answer any questions I had about the Imperial history. I was also really impressed that after mentioning I’m vegetarian, I was taken to a lovely vegetarian restaurant. I would highly recommend this really professional company (I’ll be getting touch for when I go to Hoi in a few days!).

Easily made arrangements with the company rep, Mr. Bean (nickname), for a large van from Hue to Danang for just $83 USD. We stopped along the way in Lang Co and the Hai Van Pass and were offered to see more sights in Hue beforehand, but were focused on seeing the Hai Van Pass in nice weather so we pushed on. Beautiful scenery. You reserve cars of different sizes for less/more and add/omit stops along the way as they'll tailor the tour accordingly. Very pleasant drive and experience. You can also add a guide if you want. Our driver, Mr. Minh, was very kind and attentive. We stopped along the way for snacks and took our time to relax at the top of the Hai Van Pass for a while. They can also provide a children's car seat for a small fee if needed (we brought our own). Comfortable and convenient. If you're traveling between Hue-Danang-Hoi An in either direction, highly recommend using this car service it's more affordable and convenient than taking hotel cars or local taxis that distance.

We had a great time at the workshop for a quiet Sunday morning session. Mr Tan was very informative and skilled. The workshop is well-equipped and has excellent ventilation. We learned a number of techniques including manual and electric tools, and we ended up with 2 nice bamboo containers for flowers (or possibly for beer).
