Old Quarter
Located in the middle of Ha Noi, a rapidly developing city where changes take place every hour, Ha Noi Old Quarter with its old-styled narrow streets full of antique brick houses seems to nostalgically resist the flow of time while still actively trying to adapt to the dynamic atmosphere of the modern city. Once a bustling area where merchants and artisans gathered to sell their products, Ha Noi Old Quarter consists of many small, meandering streets, each bears the name of the goods that was specifically traded there such as Hang Bac (Silver Product), Hang Ma (Paper Product), Hang Go (Wood Product), just to name a few. Visiting this unique historical vestige comfortably lying around Hoan Kiem Lake, tourists get lost in a totally different world from the rest of the city and have the chance to explore the modest but energetic life of the local a hundred years ago, where there were no high-rise buildings, too much traffic or fancy stores; things will get a little bit smaller, as visitors may have used to those skyscrapers and shopping centers in other parts of the city, but not at all less lively and vigorous.

The guide was good and enthusiastic. However, he told risqué jokes about Nazis and another offfensive gay meme about the meaning of BBC. He needs to realize that over familiarity of this nature does not play. well. He was otherwise excellent

We had a great time with Justin! He was very friendly and fun. He really explained the local cuisine well and was very informative about the different regions of Vietnam (and why we don’t see bun cha in the US… so sad!!). Loved every bite we had and our small tour group of 4 was perfect!

We really enjoyed the experience. Our guide Ethan was very friendly and knowledgeable about the food that we tried. All of the food was really good and we ended the tour with a drink on train street in time to see the train go by.

Tour guide (Jasmine) was great! Got a lot of local knowledge and context. Train street was cool too. The food itself was a bit disappointing. Didn’t eat enough (only had 3-4 courses).
