What To Expect
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.
Chua Tran Quoc
Tran Quoc Pagoda is more than 1500 years old, which means the place holds such an important role in the development of Vietnam in general and Hanoi in particular. That is the main reason why the temple attracts thousands of visitors from all over the world every year.

Great Tour for Short Layovers

5.00Andrew was a wonderful guide. We asked to see Hao Lo Prison (Hanoi Hilton) and Train Street. Andrew was very flexible with our schedule. We also got to see the B-52 museum, Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum and St. Joseph’s cathedral. It was nice of him to contact us before the tour to ask what we wanted to see and what should be the primary focus. Andrew and the driver were great partners in this experience. If you have a limited amount of time, this is a great tour to see the highlights since it’s only 4 hours.
Excellent first day in Hanoi

5.00This is an amazing tour, a great way to see Hanoi. It shows all the best bits with wonderful local knowledge. We had Tu as our guide and I can’t recommend him enough, he was so knowledgeable, friendly, funny and made us feel welcome. Special mention also to the driver Mr V (ex military) who always found parking spots nearby and managed to negotiate the chaotic traffic in Hanoi City. If you only do one tour in Hanoi then do this one, as it was memorable, educational and fun to spend time with Tu
Excellent experience

5.00Harley (Quinn) was our tour booker and Harley (Davidson) was our guide. Both were amazing!! Harley (Quinn) booked our transfer from HAN to our hotel, this tour and a customized private tour of the Conical Hat Village, the Incense village and Trang An and her service was beyond amazing! She was communicating with me the whole time we were here, checking in and helped make this the trip of a lifetime! If you get booked with the driver Mr Thien, he is also awe worthy! How he drives here is beyond my Canadian knowledge base!! I can’t say enough about Crossing Vietnam Tours but especially Harley (Quinn… trust me if you get booked with Harley the tour guide as well you’ll get the joke!
Very Good!

5.00We loved our 1/2 day private tour with Kane around Hanoi. He spoke English well and was very knowledgeable. The driver and Kane were on time and efficiently moved us around the city sights. Kane was knowledgeable about Vietnam's history, took great photographs and gave us some good tips on traveling in Vietnam. We highly recommend Kane. Thank you!
