What To Expect

Hop on a Vietnam Army Legend Jeep and ride through the hidden maze of backstreets, narrow alleys, and bustling local markets that pulse with the real rhythm of Hanoi. Witness the REAL Hanoi behind the scenes, featuring the good, the bad, and the weird sides of the city, all at close range. 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. This is more than sightseeing: it’s about building genuine connections and experiencing the city with all your senses: touching, watching, hearing, tasting, smelling and feeling the city as it truly is.

5.00We had an unforgettable Jeep tour around Hanoi thanks to our fantastic guide, Hai. From the moment the tour started, he made us feel welcome, safe, and excited for the adventure ahead. Hai’s knowledge of the city, its history, and local culture was truly impressive, and he shared everything with so much enthusiasm and friendliness. He took us to hidden gems we never would have found on our own, introduced us to delicious local food, and showed us a side of Hanoi that felt authentic and full of life. The Jeep experience itself was so much fun—unique, comfortable, and perfect for exploring the busy streets and quiet back alleys. Hai’s warm personality, great sense of humor, and passion for his city made the entire experience special. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. If you’re visiting Hanoi, don’t miss a Jeep tour with Hai —it will be a highlight of your trip!
5 star trip with Hai
