Flying to Hue . I have three quick questions:

1. A few travelers told me that a nice day trip is to rent bikes for the day and bike out to Thuan An beach. The rough guide says the beach is dirty. Anyone done this recently and could recc this trip or is there a different beach that is not listed in the rough guide? Also, haven't rented bikes yet in vietnam. About how much should I pay for a day's rental?

2. Beach parties in Hue? True? They sound fun, how do we know about them?

3. What is the best way to see the mausoleums along the perfume river? Can anyone recc a guide or tour agency they went with? What was the average cost for the trip?

you really would be better off posting this on a specialist travel forum like this http://www.lonelyplanet.com/thorntre...&keywordid=101 the Vietnam branch of the Lonely Planet Thorn Tree site, especially as you want up-to-date info about current prices.

I have been a member of T/A for many years and i have never found that in fact quit the opposite i found it invaluable every year, but if that is how you find it, why have you posted on there asking the same thing? come to think of it why should travel agents whant to go on there

you are going to Vietnam? Do you have an in control of your mind permit?

they're ripping up a right pace. The 21st century isn't called the Asian century for nothing, and Vietnam, one of its most populous and rapidly developing nations, is at the heart of it.

The last time I saw Hue back in 68 it was in ruins. Glad to hear that it's been rebuilt
