5.00We did the 5pm jeep tour. Were picked up from our hotel and driven around Hanoi seeing lots of places we would never have got to on foot. Our guide Anni was really friendly and explained lots about Vietnamese culture, food, history, buildings, politics and much more. Our driver David kept us safe despite the manic traffic. Great stop on train street for photos and a beer, and we ended up at a lovely restaurant for supper. Really glad we chose this tour
Was great!

5.00Louis and Cung treated us to a wonderful morning. Cung was the best driver. Louis was very knowledgeable, open, friendly, warm, and made us feel very welcome. His Hanoi tour showed us so many places we wouldn't have been able to go without him, and we felt he showed us many different aspects of life here, both good and bad. Lunch at The Hidden Gem cafe was the culinary highlight of my 3-week holiday in Asia. And I can say that the jeep tour day was the highlight of my holiday. It was well worth the experience.
Great tour - it’s a must
