Things to do in Hanoi

What to expect in Hanoi

This catalogue is led by Tours, Events & shows, Zoos & aquariums, Massages and Cultural experiences, giving you a mix of guided outings, live performances, animal attractions and wellbeing options to suit different trip styles. That spread means travellers can mix budget-friendly activities with a few higher-end cultural experiences across the same visit. Demand rises late in the year, peaking in December, while July is the quietest month, so booking the same popular experiences is usually easier in July than in December.

How to decide what to book

The main decision is whether you want the widest choice or a straightforward pick: the category with the widest price range is Tours, which runs from around SGD 6 at the entry-level to about SGD 35 at the upper end, so it suits travellers who want either cheap group options or more premium guided trips. For simple, predictable buys, Events & shows has a narrow range around SGD 9, making price-shopping less rewarding and it works well for filling gaps in an itinerary.

If you need the most affordable way in, Events & shows is typically the easiest low-cost option; for mid-range choices where inclusions vary the most look to Massages and Cultural experiences, with a typical price for Massages around SGD 26 and Cultural experiences around SGD 35, so compare what's offered rather than just the sticker price.

When travellers from Singapore book

Most travellers book fairly close to travel: the typical booking is about 4 days ahead, while early planners book around 15 days out. Plan on booking one to four weeks ahead if you want more certainty, and allow that cushion especially in December when demand peaks.

How prices compare
