EXCELLENT Based on 2678 reviews Posted on Dave PVerified Day trip to The Imperial City of Hue We had a lovely day today with Justine (our guide) and the driver, for the trip from Chan May Port to Hue, and the Imperial City. They met us on time, where you said that they would be, the car was clean and the air conditioning worked. They gave us bottled water. Justine explained the day and we set off. Justine queued for the tickets where needed and gave us detailed information at all the sites, not hurrying us along. Justine took lots of pictures of us, and was able to answer questions. The restaurant was lovely, the food very good, and they were aware of our request that my wife is a vegetarian. They even stopped for us to get some toiletries on the way back and he assisted us across a very busy road to the shop. A really good day.Posted on Emil KVerified Can recommend - great experience! Fantastic transfer with Luyt from VM Travel - kind, knowledgable and experienced driver. Kim from the company helped us out a bunch as well - we even got to store our bags at the office while waiting for our train in Hue.Posted on Lisa AVerified Reliable, friendly, all round excellent. Alex was a great driver, lovely to be met by his smiling face at the train station. Sadly a violent tropical storm meant some changes to the plan but he worked hard to keep us dry and away from any hard sell where we stopped.Posted on Pablo MVerified Good experience Alex was super punctual and friendly, drives very quietly and very well, made extra stops to take some photos, highly recommendedPosted on Swati NVerified Exceptional Service – Highly Recommend! I had an excellent experience with VM Travel during my stay in Vietnam. I first contacted them through the chat option on their website and received a quick and helpful response. As a solo traveller, I really appreciated how flexible and accommodating they were. My day trips were tailored entirely around my preferences. Both day tours were reasonably priced, and there were no issues with late drop-offs or pickups from my remote hotel location.A special mention to Mr Top, my driver for both days, who was friendly, professional, and reliable. The office staff, Jena, coordinating everything was equally outstanding — responsive, organised, and genuinely caring.Highly recommend their service for anyone looking for stress-free and pre-set or customised tours in Vietnam!Posted on Jason SVerified Day drive from Hue to My Son, via Hai Van Pass Very careful and excellent driver. Was helpful and attentive. Arrived early and helped with check out, waited while I went to My Son and explained things well.

Our guide tour was Nhi, who was really delightful and informative. The group was small and therefore it was easy to get around. The whole trip was very nice and included so much to see in one day! I would definitely recommend it, even more so if you don't have a lot of time in Huế.Posted on Mellissa SVerified I would highly recommend this company for transport and tours! We used VM for several Hoian day tours with Ms Dung as our guide, who was fantastic. Collected us from the hotel on time every day, and shared lots of interesting information. We also had several airport transfers. All drivers were prompt and friendly, and all cars were clean and tidy. VM was very flexible and kindly changed times when we needed to.Posted on sandraronildVerified Great service! We used VM Car for three longer trips between cities in Vietnam. Great service all around and especially from our driver Alex who drove us from Phong Nha to Da Nang with stops in Hue and Van Hai Pass.
