The Hue driver, Noa, was waiting for us aok.
The Eldora Hotel here in Hue is very nice. Keep in mind that it has many steps up to the lobby...anyone who cannot do steps would have a terrible time to get upstairs.
Anyways, I just felt that you should know this information. Do with it as you please.
Bye for now,

We tried delicious local food recommended by the guide, making our visit even more special. It was a fantastic tour!
