Start your adventure with a pickup from your hotel in Hue. Hop into an Open Top Army or Vietnam Army Legend Jeep with an English-speaking driver. Begin your journey with a cup of Vietnamese salt coffee, chatting with your driver to learn more about Vietnamese daily life.
Next, head to Huyen Tran Princess Temple, located about 6 km from Hue city centre. This temple, built to honour the peace princess of Vietnam, is surrounded by an endless pine forest, making it a perfect spot for a jeep tour. If open, visit the 9 bunkers Jail Area.
Continue to the royal tomb of the Nguyen Dynasty's first emperor, Gia Long Tomb. This complex of architectural works covers mountains and hills, blending ancient architecture with nature to create a poetic and quiet space.
Afterwards, visit the Abandoned Water Park, a strange and mysterious tourist destination. Despite being abandoned for a long time, this park fascinates visitors with its magic and ruins.
Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant before heading to Tu Hieu Pagoda. Built during the reign of King Thieu Tri - the third king of the Nguyen Dynasty, this pagoda stands out with its ancient architecture and houses many valuable artefacts, scriptures, and historical and cultural documents of Vietnam.
Finally, return to Hue city and be dropped off at your hotel, concluding your Hue countryside tour by jeep.
