Things to do in Hanoi

great variety in the tour. Pick up was easy at Hanoi opera house. drive was about 2.5hrs with one stop for food/souvenirs/bathroom. At arrival, Started with a bike ride which has minor slopes up and it was quite hot. Did a loop with couple of stops at a temple , then back for buffet lunch where we got the bikes. It was good amount of food ( drinks were extra charge). Then about 20 min drive to the row boat ride. Fits max 4 persons per boat . it was about 1.5hr going thru 4 caves. the rower helped us take pics and even had umbrellas which was needed with the heat and wearing life jackets . Another short ride to the mountain climb was rough 500 steps but the views were great. It was a long day but well worth it tour to see and do variety of things that were well balanced in timing… not too long and not rushed.

We had a wonderful experience on this tour. Everything was very well organized, efficient, and ran smoothly from start to finish. Our tour guide, Martin, was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. He made sure everyone was informed, comfortable, and well taken care of throughout the day. The 22-seat bus was modern, clean, and very comfortable, making the journey enjoyable. The lunch buffet was clean, offered a great variety of dishes, and all of the ingredients tasted fresh. The highlight of the tour for our family was definitely the Tam Coc boat ride. The scenery was absolutely beautiful, and the peaceful ride through the river and limestone mountains was incredibly relaxing and memorable. We also enjoyed visiting Hoa Lu and Hang Mua, which provided a great combination of history, culture, and stunning views. Overall, this was an excellent tour and a fantastic way to experience the beauty of Ninh Binh. We highly recommend Martin and this tour to anyone visiting Hanoi!

Excellent, just a very good experience on this one. Definitely would recommend going here. The mall itself is one of the biggest so far that we've been on in Vietnam and the aquarium is right inside it. They have huge fishes and plenty of other sealife, oh and they have penguins as well. Overall the price is not very cheap but then again it was quite an experience

My day voyage on the cruise was the absolute highlight of our Vietnam trip and worth every single penny. From the moment we stepped into our pristine, modern suite with its breathtaking its views of the cruise, the attention to detail was flawless. The onboard amenities—especially the stunning infinity pool felt like a floating five-star resort rather than a standard boat, and the dining exceeded all expectations by beautifully blending local Vietnamese flavors with international cuisine. What truly elevated the experience, however, was the impeccable and warm service from the crew, who anticipated our every need and perfectly organized the kayaking and cave excursions so we could avoid the heavy tourist crowds.

Nice aquarium for friends and family, not too big but not too small either. Great for spending time indoors, while it’s scorching hot outside. A wide variety of sea animals from: fish, turtles, penguins, sharks, eels and rays.

The whole show was entertaining and enlightening. It shows the unique talents of Vietnamese people in storytelling, music, and theater. It also highlighted how genious people are in creating art based on their surroundings. Our seats for the VIP section was right in the middle on the second row, so we had a great view of the whole stage.

We enjoyed the water puppet show for 50mins. We 've got to witness the good music and rich vietnam culture. It has english translation which is good and very easy to claim tickets. The location is also very easy to locate.

The bus was always on time. The staff explained their route well. The seats were also comfortable especially those in the airconditioned sections. The spots were also well selected so you can really explore the highlights of your Hanoi stay.

This is where Lotte Hotel and Lotte Mart are located, offering views of Hanoi from the observation deck. You enter Lotte Mart on the first basement level. I had pre-purchased tickets through Klook that included a drink, and you just exchange them at the on-site ticket counter before entering. The weather was very hot, and rain was forecast, so we went to the observation deck looking for a cool place. There were hardly any people, so we had a very pleasant visit. Since we were practically the only visitors on the observation deck, we were able to take many photos and fully enjoy the surroundings while sipping our drinks. The VR experience takes up about half of the observation deck, so other attractions like the souvenir shop might feel a bit limited. The binoculars are free, allowing you to get a detailed view of nearby tourist spots.
