View on Google MapsI traveled with Tiger and Lu from Hoi An to Hue by a vintage 1969 US Army Jeep (M151 MUTT). What a memorable way to transfer from one city to another in Vietnam! in the morning, I was picked up by Tiger at my homestay in Hoi An in an SUV. Hoi An supposedly does not allow the Jeep in the old town. We drove north to the Marble Mountains in Da Nang. I had about 40 minutes to climb the steps or take the elevator up to Mount Thuy. I did the uneven steps up and the smooth and fast elevator down. Interesting Buddhist sanctuaries built into the marble cliffs and grottoes. Great views over the city. Next and off the mountain, we briefly visited a very large marble statue store selling very large to very small statues. We mostly walked through the showroom but I was not really interested in marble souvenirs (Vietnamese made? Chinese? I wasn't sure...) - bring on the Jeep! In the SUV, we drove to the top of Hai Van Pass for a quick visit to the historic buildings and the overlook, and then my luggage and I transferred to the 1969 Jeep with Lu at the wheel. The ride was comfortable and mostly open-air as we had a fine partly-sunny day. I took some photos near the stops that Jeremy, James, and Richard made in 2008, and then we carried on downhill and into a small town for lunch at a restaurant overlooking the crashing waves of the East Sea (aka, South China Sea). Next, it was back into the Jeep and up the coast to some countryside areas (rice fields) south of Hue. We also went back into the hills for a visit to a beautiful waterfalls in Bach Ma National Park. I was invited to swim but declined as the weather was a bit breezy and cool. Finally, we drive into the city of Hue to my hotel just northwest of the Imperial City. Lu was both my tour guide and very capable driver in the Jeep. I felt perfectly safe and happy with his obvious driving expertise. This was a great day trip. It's definitely not the cheapest or fastest way to get from Hoi An to Hue (take the train for that), but it is hands-down the most memorable. Thanks guys. I really enjoyed that day and that swell Jeep!!

We had an amazing jeep safari from Huế to Hội An and can’t recommend Mr. Lu enough! He was a super guide – incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and always making sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment. Everything was perfectly well organised, from start to finish, and the whole experience felt relaxed and personal. The company was also very flexible and happy to adapt to our needs, which made the trip even better. Thank you so much for an unforgettable journey!
This Hue to Hoi An tour was top-notch! 🚗 Great stops, awesome driver Mr. Thang - super informative and helpful. 😊 Car was clean, stops were spot on, and we got to chill at our own pace, no rush. Pick-up was on time, couldn't ask for more. Highly recommend Vietnam Shore Excursions for a stress-free trip to Hoi An!
We had an unforgettable experience on the Jeep tour from Hue to Hoi An, traveling through the stunning Hai Van Pass. It was an absolutely amazing way to see Vietnam — the scenery was breathtaking, and riding in the open-air Jeep made it all the more immersive. Huge thanks to Lu and Tiger, who were both fantastic guides. They were knowledgeable, fun, and made the whole journey feel effortless. Even the rain didn’t dampen our spirits — it actually added a bit of adventure to the ride! If you’re looking for a unique and exciting way to travel between Hue and Hoi An, this is it. Highly recommend!
What a great day we had for our Jeep transfer. Sadly the weather was terrible - very wet and foggy, which detracted from the views we expected, but we had a great day. We also booked a Jeep for our son and his girlfriend, so they could do the trip with us. Our drivers, See (Quang) and Peter were so friendly and had so much information to give and tales to tell. The 1965 army jeeps were full of character! It was a bit chilly in the damp but we were under cover and enjoyed the ‘natural air conditioning’! We made stops along the way - after a tour of Hue which was good- Tam Giang Lagoon to see fishing boats, a waterfall in a national park, and enjoyed a lunch stop at Lang Co beach at a fish restaurant on stilts over the windswept beach. The food was amazing - a big seafood buffet . From there we started up the Hai Van Pass. Sadly we didn’t get views as we went but once at the top the clouds briefly parted so we could see the coast, and Da Nang below. After coffee we started the descent. Said goodbye to our drivers and swapped to a lovely big car for a stop at Marble Mountain for a look at the temples, before being dropped off in Hoi An. Travelling in an old army jeep was fun. The drivers were great. Just a shame about the weather! Would definitely recommend the experience.
We booked individual jeep tour with David. It was a great experience and we really enjoyed the views. David knows a lot about Vietnam and took really good care of us.
The trip was awesome we were picked up from our Hotel in the jeep The drivers Lou & Mosiquito were fantastic communicated well and looked to be having a good a time as we were. Nothing too much trouble stopping to take photos whenever we wanted The stop at the market was good as Lou walked round with us explaining all the local produce Next stop briefly at a local fishing village that we would never have found ourselves The waterfalls were amazing we were able to swim on January the water not too cold Seafood lunch was spectacular on a bamboo pier with the sea beneath us all the food was local and tasty The climb up the Hai Van Pass was great in the jeep with the open sides you had a view of the bay on one side and the Mountains and waterfalls on the other
We did the Hoi An to Hué tour with the US army jeep. We had a great communication in advance with David who arranged everything for us. Right on time we were picked up by our first driver who brought us to the Marble mountains. Every ticket included. When we finally hopped on to the Jeep, we started the most perfect day. Our driver, Si, was the most wonderfull man. He had so many stories to tell about every unique spot we saw, adjusted to us, asked our opinion,… we are so glad we have gotten to know him. The most unforgettable day!
Amazing journey with Lu as a driver. We enjoy the views and swam in two stops. Nice way to transfer from Hue to Hoi an. Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great way to get a real glimpse of Vietnam in a great ride. Was fantastic to ride these Jeeps and be off the standard roads. Nice guides, super friendly, good food and overall great trip.
