10-Hour Perfume Pagoda Private Tour in Hanoi

About this activity

Your journey begins with a pick-up in a private car from your hotel in Hanoi by one of our amazing local guides. From there, you'll travel to Ben Duc boat harbor to board a traditional sampan boat and embark on a scenic ride along the waterway. Upon arrival at the bottom of the mountain, you'll enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant before visiting the Hien Tru Pagoda (also known as the Heaven Kitchen pagoda). Next, you'll take a cable car to the top of the mountain, where you'll witness stunning views of the surrounding area! There, you'll visit Huong Tich Son, the main temple of the Perfume Pagoda complex, located in a cave where you'll learn about the history and spiritual significance of this important site! Afterward, you'll make your way down the mountain on foot, taking in the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape. Finally, you'll board a boat back to the Ben Duc boat harbor and depart for your hotel in Hanoi.

We can't wait to have you with us!
