About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- budgie4990 contributionsYou can feel and hear the history when you visit this place….The service is great, even before you go on the trip the tour guide is ensuring everything is good, in this case the TG from Hoi An express travel was Thu Hang. Thu Hang was so nice, she made us feel comfortable and made the tour enjoyable and relaxing without any stress, the car we went to/from the excursion was comfy and the driving was good. My Son sanctuary is a very moving place, with the surroundings, and the nature around the place makes it beautiful, it’s a must see place.Written 20 August 2024
- Cmonaussiedotcom0 contributionsBuy your ticket at the gate - so much cheaperBuy your ticket at the cable car gate - it is much cheaper - and don't do the buffet - there are plenty of better choices in the Sunworld park and even walking along the paths to tha cable car.Written 6 July 2024
- IanR123450 contributionsGreat Service Express Travel Hoi AnThe Team at Express were in constant contact via WhatsApp before and during our stay in Hoi An. The driver was waiting at pickup area and was efficient, polite and a really nice clean car. Straight to hotel in Hoi An, bags out of car and a seamless service. Express also offered numerous tours, which we will do next year when we come back. Our trip back to Da Nang Airport tomorrow is booked and the Team at Express also organised lounge access at the domestic terminal before we head back to Ho Chi Minh. All in all I cannot recommend the Team at Hoi An Express Travel highly enough, well priced, efficient, polite, well organised and a pleasure to deal with. Thanks Team Express Travel Hoi An. ❤️Written 30 June 2024
- KLWorkerO4382RL0 contributionsExtortionately priced food & drink at airportWe had to checkin at airport for our outgoing flight and was looking forward to getting something to eat after clearing immigration. We were absolutely shocked at the extortionate and ridiculous prices in airport. Everything is quoted in US$ so you get doubly ripped of by extremely high prices. 3 times the price outside, as well as terrible exchange rate if paying in Dong. We thought Burger King would be more reasonably priced but oh no, at US$25 for a burger we just flatly refused to pay these ridiculous prices. Tip is to eat and drink before coming to this ludicrously priced airport. It’s a total rip off.Written 18 June 2024

- FarAway5795230 contributionsVietnam Disney worldWhat an amazing place it's like vietnam,s version of Disney world. The place feels magical. Bestvto go early as it gets very busy by late morning. We got a grab taxi there and back. Plenty to do and most things are free. You can even get a guide to explain the history and why it is called Ba an hills.Written 9 March 2024
- PopovMalta0 contributionsNot recommendedNot recommended as you can purchase the ticket yourself on the Ba Na Hills website for a much cheaper price. This trip does not offer anything apart from the cable car ticket like other trips usually do (transport, guide, lunch, etc.).Written 17 February 2024
- millaparadis0 contributionsSuper transfer privé de l'aéroport de Da NangSuper transfer de l'aéroport jusqu'à notre hotel. Conduite agréable et propeté du véhicule impecable. Le cahauffeur a pu nous montrer quelques lieux de Da Nang sur le chemin, très agréable. Nous recomandons fortement ! Great transfer from the airport to our hotel. Nice and clean driving of the perfect vehicle. The cahauffeur could show us some places of Da Nang on the way, very nice. We strongly recommend!Written 14 January 2024
- GordonSA_820 contributionsFantastic half-day activity with familyAbsolutely fantastic day despite raining weather. Our guide, Emily, was an absolute treasure and took extra time to guide us and tell us about the sites. She was extremely friendly and well informed, and we really appreciate the thought she put into our itinerary for the day to help avoid the crowds. Well worth a morning's exploration and would highly recommend.Written 31 December 2023
- 435leeyap0 contributionsOnly worth going for the views…which weren’t thereIf it is raining and cloudy I wouldn’t bother going. We couldn’t see the views at all because of the mist and a few of the attractions that we were looking forward to, like the Alpine Coaster, were closed which we were not informed about until we got there and paid for our ticket. The golden bridge is also much shorter than it is made to look in photos and without the views behind it there isn’t much to see. We tried to focus on the indoor attractions like the 4D experience but this was one of the worst 4D experiences I’d seen - it was poor quality images and the screen even glitched at one point to show the IP number which took us out of the experience even more.Written 3 November 2023

- Mikaela A0 contributionsAmazing tour with an amazing guide!We had an half day tour at My Son. Pick up service at our hotel was excellent. Our amazing tour guide Viet gave us a fantastic tour and gave us intresting facts, not only about the Cham people and culture/history/religions, but also about Vietnam. Last but not least we also got the opportunity to watch the Cham-show as a perfect ending of the tour. We had an amazing time on this tour and we would gladly recomend this!!Written 27 August 2023

My partner and I booked the night before and were the only two people on the tour. We got the recommendation from a different tour guide (Tam) and booked directly through the Hoi An Express site.
Snow is super funny and very knowledgeable about Vietnamese history. We stopped at Hai Van Quan and saw the fort remnants and lookout. In Hue we took a dragon boat to the Thien Mu pagoda and then headed to the Imperial City. Snow taught us a lot about the emperors of Vietnam, especially the penultimate emperor, Khai Dinh. We had a lovely set lunch near the imperial city, saw the resting place of Khai Dinh and headed back to Danang.
I thought this tour was 5-stars because Snow provided such a rich history of Vietnam, its rulers, the French, etc. She was also hilarious. Good laughs and good times were had.

We arrived at the hotel shortly before time and the pickup went smoothly. Luckily we were supposed to be a group, but we had the driver and our guide Emily to ourselves. They responded well to our request. Emily, our guide, was enthusiastic and became friends. I learned a lot about the Nguyen Dynasty. The course was good, and the dish served at the Eatao Forty-five Garden, which is featured in the restaurant and the way the earth walks, was meteoric court cuisine. The boat was also reserved for both of us and it was cool. I was able to visit Hue efficiently and it was really comfortable to ride because it was hot.

This is a great way to visit Hue from Da Nang. Our guide was very informative and provided great commentary on the history of each location we visited. A highlight of the trip was the Kings Tomb which was amazing. The travel to and from Hue was comfortable and air conditioned with cold bottled water provided. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in travelling to Hue.

Our tour guide Emily was fantastic , very knowledgeable and very considerate to all the guests. She also acted as our professional photographer for as many photos as we wanted at no additional cost. The tour was as advertised as a small group, there was only one additional couple in our group and we appreciated that there were no high pressure sales tactics.

Very much enjoyed this trip from Da Nang. Our guide Emily was excellent - kind, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and we felt very well looked after. Loved the drive over the pass into Hue, the places we visited and the delicious lunch. Well worth the travel time and highly recommended this tour to see the historical sites of Hue.

My friend and I greatly enjoyed this tour. We had Sue as our guide. She was extremely knowledgable about the history of the area, site and Vietnam more broadly.
The driver and car were also excellent and made for a comfortable ride.
We took many tours in Vietnam but this was the best - understanding the story behind the Vietnamese royal family are really a must to appreciate the nation's rich history.

The tour was perfect. The trip turned out to be a private one as we were only 2 and our guide (Snow) delivered everything we were promised. She was super nice.

Very enjoyable and interesting one day trip from Da Nang to Hué incorporating many of the main sights. Our guide Thu was very professional and informative giving us lots of information about Vietnam and the area as we travelled the route from Da Nang via the Hoi Van pass to Hué and back through the tunnel. The Vietnamese lunch was delicious in a lovely restaurant inside the old city walls. I would recommend this tour for any with time restrictions. It gives a very good overall impression of Hue in one day. If I had more time I would have liked to spend longer at some of the sights, perhaps stay for a night or two, but that's possibly just me, I'm interested in history.
Our driver as excellent always there to pick us up and bring us to the next location.

Great to return to Hue, the ancestral home of the Nguyen Dynasty. There is construction work ongoing to improve the facilities but still worth a visit and would recommend getting a tour guide which is relatively inexpensive, for the wealth of knowledge gained.

If it is $88 per person, and I am booking for one person, why am I being billed $419?
