Highlights Hanoi City Day Tour

It was a fun and educational tour about Hanoi’s landmarks. We were in awe to see Uncle Ho’s well preserved body. Our tour guide Lily was so informative and patient in answering our questions. Just be prepared to do a lot of walking and remember that pagodas and temples do not allow sleeveless tops and short shorts. Also, we didn’t know that there was a lunch provided so it was really worth it and got to try other Vietnamese food.

It was a great tour overall! We covered a lot of ground but it also did not feel rushed. Our tour guide Hue (Lily) was great! She was super knowledgeable about many historical things and tidbits on Hanoi and you can feel her enthusiasm in wanting to share it. Worth a try if you have a day to spend going on a tour :)

We had a fantastic time on our Highlights Hanoi City Day Tour, and a huge part of that was thanks to our wonderful guide, Hue/Lily! From the very beginning, communication was absolutely seamless. Before the tour even started, Lily personally reached out to introduce herself, which was a lovely, welcoming touch that made us feel completely at ease. She provided her contact number and was incredibly easy to reach whenever we had a question. Throughout the day, Lily was great—exceptionally accommodating, warm, and highly knowledgeable about Hanoi’s rich history and culture. The itinerary itself was well-planned, well-paced, and gave us a perfect overview of the city's highlights. If you are planning a trip to Hanoi, we highly recommend booking this tour and asking for Lily!

An absolute 5-star experience! Our Hanoi city tour perfectly balanced deep history, vibrant local culture, and incredible food. Our guide was super friendly, very smart, and brought the city's thousand-year story to life.

The Hanoi city tour was great, especially with our guide, Hue. Hue is very knowledgeable about Hanoi City and Vietnamese culture, and gave us a great tour. Her command over English is good. She is a great person, and I would like to have her as a guide again. The lunch had a set menu and the portion sizes were too little. It also didn’t include any beverage. This is one thing that could have been improved.

Great experience! Our tour guide Kien was very informative and entertaining. Water was provided which is good since only a few establishments had free drinking water. The bus was comfortable and secure. We were able to leave our valuables in the bus/van while going through the tour.

We had a fun and informative Hanoi City Day Tour and learned so much about Vietnam’s history and culture. The biggest highlight was visiting the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum and having the rare opportunity to go inside and see the preserved body of Ho Chi Minh—an unforgettable and meaningful experience. We also visited Khuê Văn Các at the Temple of Literature, the landmark featured on the 100,000 VND banknote! Hỏa Lò Prison was equally eye-opening, showing us the harsh conditions prisoners endured and reminding us how fortunate we are to live in the present day. The tour involved plenty of walking and standing, so expect tired feet, but every stop was worth it! A friendly reminder for group travelers: please be punctual and attentive to the guide so everyone can stay on schedule. A tiring but rewarding day filled with history, learning, great photos, and wonderful memories!

tour guide accommodated me to and changed the pick up location when I was about to be late. he was very warm and friendly and knowledgeable of the spots. tour was very organized and on the spot.

I had a good trip even though the hcm mausoleum is closed. The temple of literature was atmospheric. hanoi hilton was slightly scary, and we went on the first day of the eight lunar month so there were lots of locals praying at the pagoda which is quite cool. lunch was delicious and very filling if you can eat all kinds of meat.
