To wrap up our Sapa trip with my nieces and nephews living in Hanoi, Vietnam, we took a one-day city tour bus around Hanoi. I was a bit worried because it had been raining since morning, but we decided to go out and wait it out over lunch. The weather cleared up, so we immediately booked tickets, exchanged them at the booth, and boarded the bus, which was incredibly convenient. The city tour was enjoyable and informative, with audio commentary available in various languages via headphones at each famous spot, and the estimated one-hour duration flew by. I was very satisfied with the open-air view from the second floor and the air conditioning, which made it comfortable even in the hot midday sun.

Was able to experience their culture as to how to making insence and hats in a traditional way. An eye opener for me how important it is to preserve our culture. The tour guide is really nice and accommodating. Her purpose in promoting the local tradition/culture is really commendable.

This tour was such a great experience! we had Mike as our guide and he was such a genuine and kind person who truly loves what he does. It was a great way to get around to some of the main landmarks eothout having to get a grab everywhere but also a nice break to 'Banana Island' in lush greenery once you get there. (Ignore the rubbish along the way, as this is a slum area and no policing this. Mike explains this very well. So be mindful.)

I had a wonderful time with Trang, our tour guide. This tour was very worth it given the experiences you get — it is food, culture, scenery all-in-one. I was not able to capture all the scenes but it felt like we were able to see all of Hanoi. Being on a jeep made it more fun. Trang is very helpful and took lovely photos. I highly recommend this tour :)

Highly recommend tour. I had Bee as our guide and she had lots of history knowledge. The driver was good as well. The food was great and the sights were also good. I recommend the night one as we had sunset but the war museum was closed as expected after 5:00pm but was able to see the outside which had plenty to see. It is good value for money.

Great experience! The guides were friendly and gave us a good sharing en route of the various architecture and their history. My group also enjoyed the ‘off the beaten track’ sort of experience into the fields. We went in July and began our tour at 1pm. The weather started off with a light drizzle, then warm sunshine, and we ended the tour in pouring rain. The guides were well prepared with poncho and water and we were in good hands. Won’t be sharing much photos as the tour is something to experience for yourselves. Enjoy!

We had an incredible half-day historical tour with Harley. His passion for Hanoi's history and culture made every landmark come alive. The pacing was perfect for a half-day outing, and Harley went above and beyond to answer all of our questions and make us feel welcome. Outstanding knowledge, super friendly, and wonderfully structured. We also got to taste the salt coffee and it was really, really good! Will definitely book again when we come back here in Hanoi.
