What To Expect
Long Bien Bridge
Long Bien Bridge was the longest bridge in Asia when it was built from 1899 to 1902. Known as the oldest bridge in Hanoi that is still living and sharing the daily life with Hanoians silently. At this stop, while you can take some time to enjoy the view and take pictures, our tour guide will also introduce the history of the bridge as well as details about the life of locals from 2 sides of it. After that, we will pass through the famous Chuong Duong Bridge - the four-lane, steel span bridge’s claim to fame is that it was the first sizeable bridge designed and built by Vietnamese workers, with no international assistance.
Hanoi Opera House
Hanoi Opera House is a project built by the French government in the early years of the 20th century. While you’re enjoying the very famous Trang Tien’s Ice cream, we’ll tell you all about its unique structure with the outstanding values in terms of history, culture, architecture and art.

5.00For my first visit to Vietnam, this tour was highly recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint! I was very happy with the Paloma company's booking process and their flexibility with picking us up right at our hotel and responding to any requests I had. They made the entire process very easy for a first time visitor. On the tour, my colleagues and I got a great introduction to Hanoi and saw much more on the scooters than you could ever see in a car or by foot or bicycle. We saw all the major sights, drove through narrow alleys and markets in the old quarter, and stopped to taste some iconic Vietnamese dishes along the way (egg coffee and Bún Chả just to name a few). It was amazing how much we saw and ate in only a few hours! I was also very impressed by our skillful and very friendly drivers. We felt very safe with them and even though I've driven motorcycles and scooters, I would not drive one in Hanoi -leave it to these drivers to navigate the streets and traffic!). I highly recommend this to anyone traveling to Hanoi and look forward to booking another outing with them on my next business trip here.

5.00This was an amazing way to see the beautiful city of Hanoi. Myself and four others all of mixed ages (15 - 55) took part in the motorbike tour and it was great for all ages! The tour itself was brilliant, we went all around Hanoi and even stopped off at a few different sites for a cold drink, Vietnamese food and egg coffee! Not only was it a great way to see the city but also to learn a bit. Our drivers were all so great and made us feel safe but also did a good job at explaining where we’re and what we were seeing. If you want to see more of the city then this is an awesome way!

5.00We had an amazing experience on this tour. We’re a group of 6 (mixed ages 15 - 50 years) and everyone loved it. It was an amazing way to see Hanoi through a different lens and explore more than a normal tourist would. We also had the most incredible drivers which made the experience fun, learning about the history behind buildings and what certain things were. The girls answered all our questions and always were smiling. Would highly recommend for anyone who’s wanting to explore Hanoi a bit more! (Not to mention the egg coffee stop was great)
Excellent food and sights tour of Hanoi!

5.00My friends and I decided last minute to do a food and sights tour of Hanoi and we’re so happy that we did! Paloma Motorbike Tours was such a fun way to see the city. Tracey was our tour guide and brought us to so many must see places in Hanoi with a great history and description of each place. Thin was my driver and was so much fun to drive around town with. She was a great driver and knew a lot about the city and buildings that we drive past on our tour. Tracey brought us to excellent restaurants in Hanoi and ordered us delicious food that we would have never thought to try ourselves. She was really respectful of our dietary restrictions as well. This tour was a great way to spend a morning and a must for anyone visiting Hanoi!

5.00Booked this tour last minute through the Delicacy Hotel, and we were quite pleased with the outcome! Tracey was the tour guide who was absolutely amazing. She was punctual, friendly and very knowledgeable about Vietnam and the city of Hanoi. Vinh was my personal motor bike driver for the tour and I couldn’t have asked for better! She was a great driver and made me feel so safe in such a city of crazy traffic. She pointed out all the important buildings and things to see along the way. Overall the tour was the perfect amount of time with good stops! Tracey picked the best local restaurant for us to have lunch. The food was authentic local Vietnamese and she catered to the food allergies of the group without issue. 100% would recommend this tour!!!

5.00Great tour to see the sights of Hanoi old quarter, we felt very safe with our respective rider taking us around to see various sites in this very busy city. We particularly enjoyed the Hanoi Hilton prison tour and food stop at the end of our tour. Big thanks to the female riders who we trusted with our lives and a big thank you to Annie who was the tour guide.

5.00This tour was so much fun! I've never ridden on a motorbike before but after just a few minutes with my driver, I felt comfortable and stable. I felt very safe the entire time, even with the hectic Hanoi traffic - and had a great time on the back of the bike. At each stop, we discovered some history or had some delicious food and while we were riding we were able to talk with our driver who pointed out historical or significant places. Even with the rush of wind, or rumble of nearby engines, it was easy to have a discussion on the bike.

5.00This was one of the best tours I've ever been on my guide, Sam, was very kind, informative and interesting. There is no better way to see Hanoi than from the back of a motorbike and when you add delicious food into the mix things become even better. I particularly enjoyed the fried fish stuffed with meat and mushrooms at a tiny hole-in-the-wall place down an alley. It's somewhere I'd have never found on my own but was fantastic. I'd recommend this tour to anyone and everyone. :
I can highly recommend taking this...

5.00I can highly recommend taking this motor bike tour if you are in Hanoi. There is no better way to see this beatiful city than on the back of a motor bike. My guide Trang was amazing. She was very knowledgeable, spoke great English and was fun to hang out with.
