DETAILED ITINERARY
INFORMATION TOUR
05:00 PM: The Cyclo Pick-up
A fleet of traditional cyclos (pedicabs) and our expert local food guide will arrive right at the lobby of your hotel in the city center. Settle into your comfortable seat as we kick off the evening with a breezy, scenic ride around the outer walls of the Imperial Citadel, watching the city transition from dusk to night.
05:45 PM: Royal Dumplings & Lemongrass Skewers
Your cyclo driver will gently pull up to our first hidden culinary gem. Step down to enjoy a tasting portion of Hue’s delicate savory cakes: Banh Beo (steamed water fern cake), Banh Nam (flat rice dumpling), and Banh Loc (chewy tapioca dumpling).
Pair these with sizzling Nem Lui—succulent grilled ground pork skewered on fragrant lemongrass sticks, rolled in rice paper with fresh herbs.
06:45 PM: Truong Tien Bridge & Market Noodles
Hop back onto your cyclo. We will cross the iconic, colorfully illuminated Truong Tien Bridge spanning the Perfume River, enjoying the cool evening breeze.
We arrive at the bustling area around Dong Ba Market. Pull up a plastic stool like a true local and dig into a bowl of Bun Thit Nuong (Cold rice noodles topped with tasty charcoal-grilled pork, fresh greens, and sweet-savory fish sauce).

The cyclo journey continues through vibrant local streets. Our next stop features Banh Khoai (Hue Fried Pancake), fried until perfectly crispy and stuffed with pork, shrimp, and egg.
We then move on to the absolute masterpiece of the city: Bun Bo Hue (Hue spicy beef noodle soup). Experience the perfect, complex balance of spicy, salty, and umami flavors in a single, steaming bowl.
