What an experience to see Hanoi by motorbike. It truly was a lifetime highlight. Kai, Snow and Martin were excellent guide and drivers. I would highly recommend this tour during a visit to Hanoi. The lunch at Hidden Gems Cafe was worth the tour.

My mom recommended this as her favorite experience during a trip to Vietnam last year and insisted we give it a try. it exceeded our expectations. We got to navigate the city as locals do, with our excellent drivers, Kai and Long. They expertly navigate both the main roads, alleys, and even the busiest streets of the old quarter with expertise. We saw beautiful and unique sites and enjoyed amazing local food while learning important history. DO NOT MISS THIS!

Great fun way to see real Ha Noi back streets. Don't worry if you have never ridden on back of a motorcycle. Both Kai and Quong Dong great riders in the busy traffic and back alleys. Both safe and well balanced. Lots of interesting info and sights viwed from the bike mixed up with colourful short walks up alleyways and markets. And to great lunch in Hidden Gem to top off the tour. Like Nike says.

Best spent 4 hours. We had limited time available and this was a unique and incredibly informative tour of Hanoi. Kai and the boys were great negotiating the manic traffic situations & showed us parts of the real side of the city. We had a fantastic lunch on route. Thanks again for a great day. Cảm ơn

We rode motorbikes around Hanoi. Everything was great, thanks to the guide, who explained everything in detail at every stop! I recommend this excursion especially if you’re first time in Vietnam/Hanoi
