Wonderful tour of Hanoi

5.00We had a great day in Hanoi. Our tour guide Mike helped to make the most of limited time in this fascinating city. The day was well organized right from the beginning. We were picked up right at our cruise ship. That saved us the 900m walk along the pier which other passengers had to make. Our driver Phuong drove ve us from Halong to Hanoi. The drive took about two hours. Mike was born and raise in Hanoi. He was the perfect person to share his knowledge of the city and his love for Vietnam. A wonderful day! Highly recommended.

5.00This was an extensive tour of Hanoi taken from a cruise ship in Ha Long. The transport was great, the guide was attentive and very good and took us to see all the things we could see in the time frame. He explained things well and spoke good English.

5.00Terrific private tour with Jun as our great guide. We were picked up at the ship, no long walk. It was helpful that Jun joined us in Halong and gave us lots of local information on the drive. Do plan two hours to Hanoi and plan lots of walking since old Hanoi is a maze of small streets. Our driver was superb, navigating crazy Hanoi traffic. The tour is customized to what you want, but it is impossible to see everything so some advanced planning is useful. Jun recommended a local restaurant for lunch, not the usual hotel buffet.

5.00This tour was excellent. I still cannot believe what we got for the cost. They pick up AT THE CRUISE SHIP, not after to shuttle to the port building. Our driver sent pictures, which I will include. We selected the high end dining and rickshaw ride. It was a truly memorable experience. We saw all of the highlights of Hanoi and we got back early. Seven of us with a private van— far better than the bus our cruise line offered for twice the price. And finally, Minh, Windy, and Tu made this day one we will cherish forever!
One of the best tours we’ve been on !

5.00Louis our guide and Thom our driver were incredible. Let me start with Thom the driver. He was cautious in Chaos. Traffic is not for the faint of heart here and he navigates like a pro. Next Louis. Oh what can I say. He was kind and smart and just so personable. His telling of the Hanoi Hilton was quite dofferemt from what we had been told so it was an interesting perspective. He took us to some gorgeous temples and a little shopping. However my favorite part was just sitting having an egg cream coffee ( which is delicious by the way) and talking about life in Vietnam. Ask for Louis if you book this tour!!!
