We spent our morning with Dung who started the tour by offering us a coffee and information, then we started walking through the black market as she shared stories and anecdotes about the place, the city etc during the Resistance War years. We were 7 participants in the group which was a good size as the alleys were narrow and we were aware of the effort the organisers had to make to bring us through the neighbourhood whose inhabitants could choose to be unfriendly. We took a taxi to the street that was heavily bombed and ended the tour with a drink by the Southern Railway track. This allowed us to understand Hanoi and its inhabitants a bit more and to admire their resilience and courage. Dung is young, keen to learn and passionate about her work. We were glad we joined the tour.

Our tour guide Kien is fully prepared with important history about Hanoi and Vietnam and the walk thru black market and communal living truly shines the light on how locals live in then harsh now hormonal ways. It’s a rare Airbnb experience to walk among the locals and pay respect to the fallen. Thank you Kien for your patient explanation and kindness toward me an ignorant tourist. You epitomize the welcoming and resilient spirit of Vietnam people. Thank you!

Absolutely fantastic, highly recommended for travelers with good English listening skills (the speaking pace is about 1-1.25 times that of an American TV show, with no accent) who also want to understand the causes and effects of the Vietnam War, as well as the insights it brought to the Vietnamese people and their true attitudes! The introduction to Train Street was very in-depth and included local perspectives and insights into their way of life, which was very interesting and hard to find online. The guide was a young person who returned after studying in Europe and America; they were very detailed, friendly, and answered all questions. The tour included two cups of coffee and the taxi fare during the trip; there were about 10 people in our group. However, our tour on that day lasted from 9 AM to 1 PM (not counting the time for coffee at the end), which was longer than described in the itinerary, so be mindful of the time commitment.

I joined this walking tour with Kien, and it was honestly a highlight! Kien speaks excellent English. he shared personal stories about the places we visited so it wasn’t just a list of facts. We went to local neighborhoods I’d never have found on my own. He knows some of the people in those areas, which made everything feel welcoming. Even when covering heavier topics like the war, Kien kept things engaging and easy to follow with a few well-timed laughs. Nothing felt rushed or touristy—it all felt personal. I walked away with a deeper appreciation of Vietnam.

Kien was super knowledgeable. I learnt so much about the Vietnam War in such a short amount of time, not just through storytelling, but also through walking through the neighbourhood and seeing the buildings myself.
Kien was very friendly and answered all questions during the tour.
I highly recommend this tour if you want to have inside knowledge of how the locals live and the history of Vietnam War from a local.

I have joined the tour with Kien today, although there was a bit of misunderstanding before Kien and I at the beginning and led to some minor confusion, he was really flexible and made good arrangements to solve the issue. He thoroughly introduced the history of the Vietnamese War and gave me a really good perspective to learn about the history. He also introduced to me with the way of local people making a living in the previous generations. We finished with having a drink at the Train street and watched how the train passed through. Kien will bring you to the corners of Hanoi that you cannot enter without a local. He is really passionate with his job and keen to help you learn more about the history and culture of Vietnam. Highly recommended tour for a morning/ afternoon if you like to know about history.

This tour was exactly what I was looking for—an authentic, insightful experience guided by a local expert. I was fortunate to be the only participant that day, which made it feel like a private tour. From the very first minute, my guide, Dung, made me feel completely at ease. She welcomed me at a café, where we enjoyed a drink while she provided a detailed and engaging historical overview of Vietnam.
From there, we ventured into hidden corners of the city that tourists would never discover on their own. Along the way, Dung shared fascinating insights that offered a deeper understanding of Vietnam’s economic and social dynamics. One of the highlights was visiting the B-52 Memorial, and on the way, she treated me to a delicious local snack. Later, we stopped at Train Street, where we sat down, had a drink, and enjoyed a great conversation.
I felt truly privileged to have Dung as my guide. She is incredibly knowledgeable, intelligent, and kind-hearted, making the experience even more special. If you’re looking for something beyond the typical touristy walking tour, this is the perfect choice. Don’t miss it!

Kien was great and took the time to explain to us the history and context of the various places we toured, while also weaving it with his own personal stories and observations. I appreciated how we were able to see a part of the city most tourists don’t frequent and understand how Hanoians have banded together to support each other as a community during the ups and downs of the past few decades.
