5.00Great tour of parts of Hanoi we would not have otherwise seen and touring in an open air Jeep made it even better. Lunch at the Hidden Gem Cafe was super tasty and train street was of course a highlight. Our tour guide Bee was the cutest and full of interesting facts about the history and culture of Vietnam. She had so much enthusiasm and we loved every minute of this tour and would highly recommend it.

5.00We were picked up at 7:30am on the dot and spend the next 4 and a half hours with our guide Kai and driver Johnny, going around Hanoi seeing all the famous places and learning about the culture. We've spend time at the Old Quarter and the French Quarter, we made stops at Long Bien Bridge, B52 Victory Museum and perfect timing at Train Street to have a free drink and watch the train go by! Kai is very knowledgeable and we learned a lot of facts and history of Vietnam. We even stop off at some small business and going through living quarters if local people! Johnny is an exceptional driver, he might as well have been driving a tank as the jeep is massive but he had perfect maneuver and always on time to pick us up at various stops. The tour ended at a restaurant call Hidden Gem and it might have been my favorite resturant in Hanoi. The lunch included was very tasty and the decoration of the restaurant is very unique using recycled materials. Outstanding. We were dropped off back at our hotel around 12pm. This is money well spend! Do it if you have the chance!
