What To Expect
Located in Hanoi's Old Quarter area, Ma May Street is unique as it is home to many of the city’s oldest houses. The house at No.87 Ma May Street (Hoan Kiem District) is one of 14 ancient houses in Hanoi built in the late 19th century that still retains its original features and becomes a familiar address for those who want to learn about the daily life of Hanoians in the old time.
Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum
In the tradition of Lenin, Stalin and Mao, Ho Chi Minh’s Mausoleum is a monumental marble edifice. Contrary to his desire for a simple cremation, the mausoleum was constructed from materials gathered from all over Vietnam between 1973 and 1975. We will pass by the Mausoleum, stop for 10 minutes to take photos and listen to the heroic history of Ho Chi Minh President.

5.00This is a great tour visiting some main sites of Hanoi. Zach our tour guide was informative and his English was excellent. 4 hrs was enough to learn about some of Hanoi’s history and try some coffee and finish at train street for a nice cold drink to watch the train go by. Thanks Zack for a great afternoon.
Good food and nice walk with Justin

He was helpful, answered all our questions and was very kind and respectful of our private time as a couple. He speaks English very well, has a calming vibe around him. Highly recommended

5.00At first we were skeptical whether to take this tour or not, since we thought that we are already walking around the old quarter and there is not much to see. But our tour guide Andrew he took us around and explained the significance of the place and we enjoyed going around with him He also took us to the train street where he reserved seats for us and we got to see the train crossing the train street It was magnificent. Thanks for taking us around and taking good pictures for us.
