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.

5.00Dave was great and incredibly knowledgeable. So glad we did this as a tour there is no way we could have seen everything we did if we had fone it on our own. Given how absolutely chaotic the traffic is in hanoi felt terrified but safe in the army jeep.

5.00The Hanoi Jeep tour was fantastic, especially Jim who was very knowledgeable and friendly. We had the opportunity to really see Hanoi, through the side streets and hidden treasures. Jim offered us a unique look at the historic city and how things were evolving. We enjoyed train street and a special lunch that we wouldn’t have otherwise had. I would highly recommend this tour, and ask for Jim.
Highly recommend
