  • Terrific Day in Hanoi

    Anh was absolutely terrific showing us the main historical sites in Hanoi! He was engaging, answered all of our questions about Vietnam’s history and did everything we asked of him. A highlight was the coffee shop he took us to where we had egg coffee - prepared right at our table! The last day of a 4 week trip couldn’t have been better! I highly recommend his services!

    We had a great day with Anh. He was a wonderful guide for the day and his English was excellent. He has a driver with him so it made it so easy to get off at sites without worrying about parking. We had a delightful day together and ended with a cup of egg coffee and white wine for me!

    We had an excellent experience touring the major landmarks of Hanoi. We were able to see and learn about many aspects of the city in just one day. Anh was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all of our questions. He is kind, friendly, and we enjoyed spending our day with him. He coordinated all of the day’s activities, including transportation and tickets, smoothly and efficiently. We highly recommend taking this tour of Hanoi.

    Mr. Ang was a great tour guide. His knowledge was excellent and his flexibility was appreciated. He knew the best times to go to each site and we covered all of Hanoi in one day and it was not rushed at all. I have no hesitation in recommending him. You will learn so much from him.

    Wonderful Hanoi city tour with Mr. Nam (young, informed, energetic & very well spoken in English) a friend of Mr. Anh, the owner. The 3 of us covered a lot of ground in one day from 9am to about 3pm. Everything went extremely smooth. We also stopped by for lunch at a local restaurant. We took our time and Mr. Nam explained everything in details. His knowledge of Vietnam's history was really great. We would highly recommend this tour for everyone. Loved it.

  • Vietnam Trip with Anh Cao - Multiple Day Tour

    I found Anh Cao through an internet search. I could not have been luckier to have come into contact with him. I booked two days of tours and could not be happier. The first day was a city tour of Hanoi. The tour of Hanoi felt as though I saw the entire city. Expert planning took me from place to place and the timing was perfect. I can’t remember standing in line for more than one or two minutes. The second day tour took us to Thung Nham and to Hoa Lu. The things I learned during the first day of the tour were tied together on day two. Both days provided and excellent introduction to Vietnam.

  • Incredible day with Anh

    We had a very interesting and educational day with Anh in Hanoi. The itinerary was exactly as described. We packed quite a bit into one day without ever feeling rushed. We saw Hanoi's major Museums Temples and Monuments. We had a leisurely lunch at a local restaurant and ended the day in the Old Quarter Market which was near our hotel. The day was filled with interesting information about Vietnamese culture and history. Our second day in Hanoi was a free day and Anh helped us plan our day with sites and attractions we hadn't seen. Anh was a terrific guide who helped us have a wonderful time in Hanoi.

  • Fantasic day with a very knowledgeable guide

    We spent 1 day with Anh and his very safe driver Long . We spent a few hours outside the city to visit the Paddy fields , alongside visiting the main cultural sites in Hanoi . Anh has a wealth of knowledge and pointed out a number of stories and nuances that we may have otherwise walked past . His English is impeccable and as a Hanoi native , he knows the city like the back of his hand ! The communication via WhatsApp made the organization seamless. Would highly recommend to visitors of Hanoi , thank you for a very memorable day

    Cao Thien "Anh" deserves the highest rating of all the tours I took on my recent trip to Vietnam. He responds to emails lighting fast, he is very thorough in describing what to expect on his tour, he is open to on the spot modifications, his English is very good, he "by request" took us of the normal beat and trail to see the B-52 landing gear at Huu Tiep Lake, he provided us umbrellas, he took us to see the "changing of the guard" at Ho Chi Minh's mausoleum. (did not get to go inside because it closes @11:00 a.m), but that was my fault on starting tour late. Anh is very knowledgeable of his city and history. We went to the Hanoi war museum and then to the Hanoi Hilton, Effile's Post office and big catholic church. He took us to a amazing tasting Vietnamese lunch, with great food, great service. Anh was on time and provided very new and comfortable transportation for us. I would recommend Anh to anyone that wanted a great tour guide.

    Our tour of Hanoi was one of the highlights of our cruise vacation through asia. Our tour guide, Cao Thien Anh, was great. He spoke perfect english and was extremely knowledgeable of the history of Vietnam and the Vietnam war. We only had a day to tour the city since we were coming from Ha Long Bay. He put together a perfect itinerary that allowed us to experience the culture, cuisine and history of this incredible city. I can't say enough nice things about Cao Thien Anh and his tour of Hanoi. My wife and I have taken many city tours during our years of traveling. This one rates as one of the best.
