Museu de História Militar e Prisão de Hoa Lo - Tour de Meio Dia

Visiting the Military Museum and the prison in Hanoi was a really meaningful experience, especially as a first-time visitor to Vietnam. It was great to learn more about the country’s history and gain context for the places we’ve been seeing around the city. Darcy was incredibly patient with all of our questions and was clearly very knowledgeable about Vietnam’s history, which made the tour even more engaging. One thing to note is that weekend visits can get quite crowded due to students, and a half-day tour can feel a little rushed if you want to explore everything in detail. It might be helpful if there were options for both half-day and full-day tours for visitors who want to dive deeper into the history.

It was a very informative and eye-opening experience. Our tour guide, Ivy, was also very intelligent, eloquent, and was able to answer every question we had about the history and facts surrounding the museums. I highly recommend this tour.

The tour was incredibly informative and entertaining. A huge thank you to our tour guide, Linh, who was exceptionally professional and had superb English speaking skills, especially for a Vietnamese local. This was the best tour on our itinerary, all thanks to Linh. 👏

Lawrence là một hướng dẫn viên tuyệt vời, anh ấy có rất nhiều thông tin và bạn có thể thấy anh ấy tự hào như thế nào khi là người Việt Nam. Lawrence đúng giờ, lịch sự và là một người rất dễ chịu để dành vài giờ cùng. Rất khuyến khích

It was unfortunate that we were not able to go to the first stop because of the flood. We enjoyed the prison, though! It would have been nicer if Brian had told us more information while going around the prison, but still, all in all, it was a good experience.

The tour was really top tier. We were able to see the Vietnam Military History Museum and Hoa Lo Prison. Our guide, Mr. Kien was able to make the tour not just fun but very informative. He was not just knowledgeable about the culture, history and language of Vietnam which he was able to share with us, but also he was approachable whenever we have concerns about the tour.

Visiting Vietman Military History Museum and Hoa Lo Prison with the guide, Darcy, who is professional and really good at telling the story about the history. We enjoyed our trip today and also gained a lots of knowledge about the Vietnam history.

ベトナムの歴史、近代史に興味があり予約しました。高校生の子供と参加しましたが、ガイドのtuanさんが分かり易い日本語で説明してくださり、世界史で学んだ事を実際目の前で見て色々と考えさせられたようです。 ベトナム軍事博物館は平日の方が空いているそうなのでゆっくり見たい方は平日の方がいいかもしれません。 チケット代は現地で現金払いなので準備していた方がいいと思います。

Every tourist must book this activity coz you will know and learn about the history of their country Vietnam. It struck my heart when i was in the prison seeing the peoples sacrifices and tortures. It really made my heart heavy. our Tour guide was very accommodating. going extra mile with her service. and whats flattering, she already scanned my profile before we meet so it feels like she can easily adapt to us. Thats a very good idea Phuong Anh :)

Guide spoke excellent english and was very caring during the tour. He was also very informative and gave detailed and interesting insights into the history of the places visited. As it was a Monday, Military History Museum was closed so the tour started at the Air Defence Musuem which had a vast display of various equipment and vehicles used in the Vietnam War. The next destination was Hoa Lo Prison where prisoners were held during the French occupation of Vietnam. Very rich history and highly recommended for history buffs visiting Vietnam. Thank you for also helping to take photos and your excellent service!
