We laughed and learned! The day was beautiful and choosing this travel company over others was the best decision I made. Thank you for a wonderful time! This is a day I will never forgot.

5.00Bruce Lee was an amazing tour guide. He made our experience in Hanoi something I will always remember. Bruce is extremely kind, funny, and enjoyable to be around. His knowledge of the area’s history was so interesting and helped my family understand the background of Vietnam more. If you plan to come please book a trip with him, you won’t regret it!!
Awesome cultural experience

5.00Awesome tour with Bruce Lee! We learned about incense making and with it a lot about Vietnamese culture. We had a flavorful lunch and then a relaxing river boat ride in the countryside! Wonderfully curated tour.
Excellent boat trip. Incense village and temple not up to expectations.

3.00The incense village was not quite what I had expected and was too crowded. The Boat trip was excellent. Best part of the trip by far. Lunch was also very good. The trip to the temple was quite disappointing. In all I did not think it was good value for money. I found it hard to understand the tour guide. He was quietly spoken, quite repetitive and I did not learn a lot from this trip. It seemed very rushed.
Awesome Vietnamese venture

5.00One of the best tours- I’ve been on! Started with an on time (early) pick up and adventure filled day! Bruce Lee (Hoa) did a terrific job explaining the Vietnamese culture and ensuring our safety throughout the day. He took so many photos, and never complained or frowned when we wanted just one more. This was the best tour lunch I’ve had (and I’ve had many). The food kept coming to the table! The Incense Village was amazing- fun to learn how much work goes into making one. The boat ride and scenery was so peaceful. This isn’t a tour you want to miss.
Dream day!
