5.00A fantastic experience with the Hanoi Old Quarter tour. Our driver was incredibly skillful, safely navigating through traffic and across Hanoi's streets, markets, alleys, and bridges. Louis was our main guide; he was very knowledgeable and courteous. This was the Hanoi we saw as a local, with its culture and prominent landmarks. Lunch was included and was delicious. The trip was rewarding and enjoyable. Definitely worth experiencing.

5.00We did the evening jeep tour with dinner. Our guide was Anni who was passionate informed and entertaining. She went out of her way to make sure that everything was OK and even got a lost package returned to me. The tour takes you through various Hanoi neighborhoods, and you start an end at the hidden gem café, which is an experience all unto itself! I highly recommend

Great American Jeep City Tour

5.00My husband and I booked the American Jeep City Tour for our first afternoon in Hanoi. It’s such a fun and unique way to explore the city—open-air, up close, and full of character. The itinerary was perfect. Seeing the famous Train Street, the Temple of Literature and the B52 bomber site. We even visited a traditional Vietnamese family home. To top it all off, we ended with an incredible egg coffee which was absolutely delicious. Huge thanks to our tour guide Johnny (who was also an expert photographer!) and driver Windy.
