5.00This Jeep tour showed me a completely different side of Hanoi. From lively streets to peaceful corners, everything felt so real. The open-air ride was fun with a hint of adventure. Our guide kept the vibe light, friendly, and enjoyable throughout. A short trip, but filled with happiness.

5.00Forget the standard bus tours! Riding in an open-air vintage Jeep is the only way to truly feel the soul of Hanoi. Our journey took us through tiny, zig-zagging alleys and local markets where cars simply can't go, offering an authentic glimpse into the city's 'backyard.' We captured stunning 360-degree photos on the historic Long Bien Bridge and enjoyed some of the best street food and egg coffee at hidden local spots. If you want an adventurous, stylish, and 'healing' deep dive into the capital, this tour is a must-do. Don't miss the sunset cruise around West Lake for the ultimate vibe!

5.00This half-day Jeep tour was a great way to experience Hanoi beyond the usual sightseeing. Riding in an open-air Jeep through backstreets and local neighborhoods gave the city a completely different feel — lively, authentic, and full of character. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable, sharing stories that helped us understand Hanoi’s daily rhythm, not just its landmarks. The local meal and egg coffee were simple but delicious, and the pace of the tour felt relaxed rather than rushed. With hotel pickup and a small group, it was an easy and enjoyable way to spend a few hours in the city.
