Things to do in Hanoi

During the travel time, our guide spoke to us in English, and we even had time to shop at a store during a restroom break! There was a staff member who spoke excellent Japanese and introduced us to various products! At the beginning, in the ancient capital of Hoa Lu, we enjoyed cycling to our destination! The boat ride in Trang An lasted over an hour and was very satisfying! Finally, at Mua Cave, the steps were very steep and challenging to climb, but the view from the top was absolutely spectacular! Our guide was also wonderful, and this tour was definitely the right choice!✨

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.

Location: The location is easy to find, right next to Bin City Market. It seems they have many branches. When you arrive, there's a QR code for the queue that you can scan in advance. Then, when checking out, you can buy coupons on Klook.

I really had no idea what to expect when I booked this excursion. The trip was very well described on the website but even with that, one doesn’t really fully understand how it will all run. I was VERY pleasantly surprised with our driver, our amazing tour guide (called “T”) and the smooth operations of the trip. And that’s not even going into the magic we saw along the way. T was skilled in sharing the history and stories of all the sights we saw. It was a full day and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. We had a mixture of ages in our group and T made sure all of us were tended to.

I brought my grandmother and mother to experience this, and we all thought it was wonderful. It's very suitable for bringing the family together. The young lady at the front desk also spoke Chinese, making normal communication very easy, and she was very helpful. The massage therapists were also very attentive, constantly checking if the pressure was appropriate throughout the session. Highly recommend everyone to come and experience it~❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

We had such a nice experience on the Cozy Bay Day Cruise. The atmosphere was relaxing, the staff were welcoming, and the views from the boat were beautiful. The highlight was definitely the food — it was good and tasty, with plenty of options to enjoy while sailing. Overall, it was a wonderful day out on the water, and I’d happily recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable cruise in Vietnam. 🌅🍴🚤

A day trip to Ha Long Bay truly lives up to its reputation as "Guilin on the Sea"! 🌊 We departed from Hanoi in the morning, and the drive was about 2.5 hours. Although it was a bit far, seeing the emerald green water and thousands of limestone islands made it all worthwhile. Cruising among the islands felt like stepping into a traditional Chinese ink painting. For lunch, we enjoyed a seafood meal on the boat; the food was decent, but dining with the sea breeze was incredibly pleasant. The biggest highlights were kayaking and exploring the caves, where the water was so clear you could see the bottom. We climbed over 400 steps on Ti Top Island, and the panoramic view of Ha Long Bay from the summit was truly breathtaking. The day trip was indeed a bit rushed, so if possible, I'd recommend staying overnight. However, for a short experience, it offers great value for money, and I highly recommend it! Our guide, Johnny, was enthusiastic, thoughtful, and meticulous in his service – highly commendable.

Less than 2 hours after I checked into my hotel near the Old Quarter, I walked to the venue of water puppet show of 5.20pm near Hoan Kiem Lake. I was tired but the very entertaining, historically rich and professional performance energised me!!! The English audio guide (device) operates by itself & one only needs to adjust the volume as desired. It was useful to have the translation to better appreciate the action in front of me. I got the VIP seat and sat in the middle of the second row from the front, offering a fantastic almost unblocked view. I loved the musicians & singers who provided the much needed accompaniment for an invigorating show. The theatre was packed with adults, children & youth from all over the world as it was suited for all ages & backgrounds! Just walk towards Hoan Kiem Lake using online maps to get to Thang Long Water Puppet Theatre and exchange your Klook voucher at the red table with staff right there for a ticket before the show. They will have your name.

it’s always so easy to book on Klook for the instant confirmation. Very fast to get the tickets and they assisted us to our seats properly. The show is so good and funny at the same time although we don’t understand the actors since it’s in Vietnamese language we still enjoy the whole show.
