What To Expect

Immerse yourself in the Living Museum of Hanoi, where local people live and work. Meet locals in their daily lives, from street vendors to artisans, from families to school students, or discover local markets, temples, playgrounds, and random cafés.

5.00We had an amazing tour of Hanoi from an open top Jeep with our excellent guide "Duy" and his driver! Duy was very knowledgeable on Hanoi and Vietnamese history, culture and traditions. He kept it super fun and entertaining we were travelling with our 7 year old son and he really enjoyed it. It was for half a day and the timings were spot on. He was there early for pick up and drop off, all well timed. Had some incredible salt coffee and food was fantastic. Thanks again Duy!

5.00Dave and Peter were fantastic. Dave was a great English speaking guide and knew where to take us to have an enjoyable visit around Hanoi. And very funny as well. Dave kept us safe driving the streets and dodging the motorbikes. We were taken to the back alleys and local places that we probably would not have found ourselves, and the local food was sensational and very filling. A great experience and highly recommend!!
Great tour around Hanoi
