Jenny Tran was our tour guide. Her use of the English language is impeccable, and she is very friendly. The driver was also very prompt and drive safely despite all of the chaotic traffic in Hanoi. Jenny went out of her way to make sure that my husband and I enjoyed this tour. Her fund of knowledge is outstanding. She even volunteered to assist us in our efforts in exchanging currency and in negotiations at the Wholesale Market. I appreciate her insight into everyday living and local experiences in Cambodia. The Temple and Train Street tours were AWESOME.

This was a great way to hop around most of Hanoi’s key sights while learning a bit about local history and culture. It was nice to not have to think about crossing the road alone, or coordinating timings with the train and guard change. Sandy was a great host!
