Hoa Lo Prison Museum ture

Today was an outstanding day thanks to my lovely guide, Tamm. I tried some nice Vietnamese coffee, got to witness the epic Hanoi Train street, while sipping a mango smoothie. Then, we ventured to Hoa Lo prison and this place is a must because, you can see the fascinating history that Vietnam possesses. It’s here that you get to appreciate Vietnam even more. This experience was memorable thanks to the knowledge and passion of Tamm. I highly recommend everyone to engage in this tour, when your in Hanoi.

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.

Vi deltog i en halvdagstur. Det var anstrengende, men sjovt på samme tid. En ny oplevelse at lære om deres kultur og tro. Vores turguide, hr. Kevin, sendte os en sms dagen før turen som en venlig påmindelse om afhentningstid og -sted. Turen forløb glat, og varevognen var super komfortabel. Jeg faldt i søvn, hver gang vi kom ind i køretøjet. Vi bad om at blive sat af ved en restaurant i stedet for vores hotel.

Min mor deltog i turen til Kvindemuseet og Hoa Lo-fængslet med vores guide Darcy og havde en meget behagelig oplevelse. Venlig, livlig og meget imødekommende skabte Darcy en afslappet og fornøjelig atmosfære under hele turen. Den delte historiske kontekst hjalp med at levendegøre mange af udstillingerne og historierne. Min mor satte især pris på, hvor åben guiden var med at dele indsigt og besvare spørgsmål undervejs. Alt i alt var det en engagerende og informativ oplevelse, og min mor fik en dybere forståelse for stederne og deres historie. Den varme og imødekommende tilgang gjorde turen særligt fornøjelig.

The driver is nice and intime. We had a funny and memorable day. High recommend 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Visiting the Military Museum and the prison in Hanoi was a really meaningful experience, especially as a first-time visitor to Vietnam. It was great to learn more about the country’s history and gain context for the places we’ve been seeing around the city. Darcy was incredibly patient with all of our questions and was clearly very knowledgeable about Vietnam’s history, which made the tour even more engaging. One thing to note is that weekend visits can get quite crowded due to students, and a half-day tour can feel a little rushed if you want to explore everything in detail. It might be helpful if there were options for both half-day and full-day tours for visitors who want to dive deeper into the history.

Vores turguide Michael er meget passioneret og gjorde en stor indsats for at forklare Vietnams historie, fakta og kultur på en engagerende måde og med en god sans for humor. Han demonstrerede også det vietnamesiske folks varme og gæstfrihed. Derudover er han proaktiv med at besvare alle vores spørgsmål og gør en ekstra indsats for at imødekomme vores ønsker. Vi satte stor pris på hans dedikation og entusiasme. Besøgene i Etnologisk Museum, Hoa Lo Fængsel og Ho Chi Minh var en øjenåbner for min familie. Turen var virkelig indsigtsfuld og har uddybet min forståelse af dette land. Kan varmt anbefales.

This 1Day city tour itinerary was just perfect to experience most desired attractions in Hanoi. Our tour guide Mr. Luca was very informative & managed the entire tour with good timing. Insence village, Train Street coffee shops along the running train passing-by & Prison Museum were among the unique experiences to remember.
