The Hue motorbike tour is an ideal choice for those seeking to immerse themselves in the rich culture and picturesque landscapes of Hue, beyond the iconic landmarks such as the Citadel, royal tombs, and centuries-old pagodas.
The tour takes you off the beaten path to the outskirts of Hue, where you’ll venture through narrow alleys lined with local houses surrounded by lush green bushes and rice fields. Experience the tranquility of a peaceful morning market and learn about the traditional farming techniques of the Vietnamese people in the past.
In addition, you’ll have the opportunity to learn how to make incense and the iconic Vietnamese conical hat, known as “Nón Lá.”
This Hue motorbike tour culminates with a visit to a mysterious royal colosseum of the Nguyen Dynasty, offering a glimpse into its intriguing history. The tour concludes with a breathtaking view of the secret American bunker hill, where you’ll gain insights into the hardships of life during the war.
