5.00Absolutely the best tour on our trip. Quang my guide was fantastic! If you're coming to Hanoi this is a must to do. You see the real side of the city and in the best way ever. Tuna was my wife's rider and the original contact, and main guide. He too was totally great. No better city experience in my opinion.
