This tour is one of the best I’ve taken in Klook! The itinerary was well thought of and the flow was not exhausting and was still able to give us the Hanoi experiences that we craved. The best feature of the package was the tour guide Zack. He was always kind to us and his knowledge and discussions about the destinations added a special layer to our experience. He is excellent in his job and we are happy that he was assigned to our tour.

We are so thankful we did this on Day 1 in Hanoi. IT IS A MUST! If you want a full immersion in the city, the motorbike ride will guide you to the spots and bring you to amazing places! We feel grateful for our two tour guides, Minh Ngoc and Liam. We want to have more time with them, but the day should end. Thank you so much!!!!

We visited three city attractions in the morning and three in the afternoon, each with its own unique charm. There wasn't much walking, so it wasn't overly tiring. Lunch included local cuisine, which was hearty and saved us the cost of a meal. Among the six attractions, I particularly enjoyed One Pillar Pagoda, Hoa Lo Prison, and Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum; they truly capture Vietnam's unique character! I recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see multiple city sights in a short amount of time without worrying about transportation!

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.

Mr. Son is a very good tour guide. He not only guided us to each place but also provided brief knowledge about every place we visited. I think Mr. Son put great effort into the trip, and I believe he should be compensated more than what he currently earns!

This trip was an amazing experience. Riding an electric scooter through the streets and alleys of Hanoi, checking off numerous attractions, we felt the charm of this city nestled between urbanization and the countryside. It is worth mentioning that our guide, Hieu, provided exceptional service, offering detailed explanations and even helping us take photos. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to deeply experience the streets and alleys of Hanoi.

Teacher Collin was incredibly warm and patient. We're not very good at English, but he always took care of us, explaining Vietnamese coffee and tea. We not only learned some related knowledge but also got to try making it ourselves, which was very interesting. Everyone should give it a try!
