Peter our tour guide showed us around Hanoi and had wonderful knowledge of his hometown. We really enjoyed seeing all of Hanoi’s attractions and learning how to cross the road safely!

Phuc was great. Very knowledgeable and friendly. He even took us to Uniqlo. He smiled the whole time and the timing with the driver was impeccable.! I don’t know how they did that with the city as busy as Hanoi. Highly recommend Phuc.

Excellent !! Our tour guide Phuc was very warm,, caring , knowledgable and a great guy. We had a wonderful time with him. Best was, he gave us the immense knowledge in depth about Pagodas although we are quite familiar with Buddhism. Visiting all other sites was also very comfortable ! 👍👍 for Phuc ! Keep it up ! Good luck 🌺🌺

Had a fantastic tour. Phuc was so friendly and informative, and willing to adjust the morning’s itinerary according to our wishes. Because we asked, he took us for egg coffee and to Banh Mi 25. Phenomenal!
