The tour was fantastic... Louis was so kind, intelligent, and charming. His sense of humor and storytelling made the trip even more enjoyable and memorable. Being invited to Mr. Quang's house was a great honor. Seeing his house and chatting with him was the highlight of the Hanoi trip. Our motorbike ride was completely safe and enjoyable thanks to Quang's excellent driving skills. Everything was very special. 11/10!

Had a fantastic tour with Oggy in English. Very funny and entertaining guide. The 4 hours went so fast! The stops vary from from a market off the beaten path to the diplomatic neighborhood around the Ho Chi Minh mausoleum. Traveling on a motorbike is a very unique way to experience the city. Had so much fun the 4 hours flew by. Ending it at the Hidden Gem Cafe was the cherry on the of the cake. It really was a hidden gem.

This is arguably the best thing to do in Hanoi if you want to truly get the local feel. Oggy led the tour with three other drivers, and we zipped through the streets and back alleyways to different spots in the city. We ended with a great lunch and egg coffee at the Hidden Gem Cafe.

Kai and his drivers, Hai, Lau and Sun were absolutely brilliant. Great tour, awesome sights, and the inclusion of dinner was excellent. Train street was way cool. Pick up and drop off at your hotel was perfect for us. Highly recommend this tour and this crew.
