When I come abroad, I want to visit as many tourist spots as possible. This tour will take you on a motorbike and will take you to some of the sights that you won't be able to compare to other tours. We had a meaningful time. It took about 4 hours, so I used it before the last flight.
Great Taste of Local Life

Minh was an amazing guide and gave me a fresh take and real look into Hanoi, beyond the regular sites. I loved our great conversations with wonderful insight into local Vietnamese life. I HIGHLY recommend taking a tour with Minh if you have the chance.
