5.00Our last day here in Hanoi and we decided to take the early morning tour around the city and honestly this must be the best way to start a day! Our guide Dave was incredibly knowledgeable about Hanoi and the history of the city, with detailed information, fun facts and quirky information about each stop along the way. Our stops featured great coffee, riding through the tight alleyways, getting to sit and watch the train pass close by on train street and seriously tasty food in the Hidden Gem Café. This tour is an absolute must for anybody new or unfamiliar with Hanoi and looking to get a detailed history of this insanely beautiful city and the people who call it home! Thanks Dave!
Fantastic way to see Hanoi

5.00This was an amazing day! One of the absolute highlights. The riders were amazing, their knowledge was great and being on the back of the bike really immersed you into Vietnamese life. Really felt like we were a part of the culture. The bike riders were professional and we got to see parts of the city you would not normally get to on a car! Bloody loved it 😀
Just do it!

5.00AMAZING! One of the best experiences I’ve had. The guide (Tuna) was so so good. The drivers were spot on, explained key landmarks and important cultural factors. The best thing about this bike tour is you feel immersed in the culture and really get to feel the vibe of the city! Unbelievable and do not hesitate. Just book it! You won’t be disappointed . As a footnote… all of the food was delicious as well 😀
