Hop aboard a cyclo and take a tasty trip through historic Hue, the last imperial capital of Vietnam. Explore the city’s charms as you ride through alleyways, taste local street foods, and learn the history of central Vietnamese cuisine.
Hue, with its mix of history and modern life, is the gateway to the treasures of Vietnam's royal past. But we're not taking you on a stuffy history tour.

You'll taste just how great this bun bo Hue ;Then cool down with a cold beer from a vendor nearby.
We hope you're still hungry as we'll then head to a small local snack shop where you'll have the opportunity to prepare for yourself a typical egg rice cracker with beef or pâté on charcoal. This treat is a favourite dessert after a main meal for many locals, and this is a great place for you to indulge in a local experience and interact with the people of ;
Your Hue street food tour ends at a local coffee house where you will be immersed in the relaxing atmosphere while sipping a lovely tea or Vietnamese salty coffee (a Hue speciality). Finally, transfer back to your hotel by cyclo to enjoy your restful evening as you ;
