5Great tour, 5 stars for boththe guide and driver
I had a great time on the tour. I loved seeing the country side. Both the tour and driver were funny, engaging, and kind. At one point, the driver pulled over to buy a bag of fresh lychee for all of us to snack on. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to get out of the Hanoi for a relaxing day in the country.

About Hanoi
Hanoi, Vietnam's capital, mixes lakeside temples, French colonial boulevards and an Old Quarter where street food and scooters fill every lane.
The Old Quarter's narrow streets, each once devoted to a single trade, sit just north of Hoan Kiem Lake, where the red Huc Bridge leads to the Temple of the Jade Mountain. Wander at dawn to see tai chi by the water, or after dark when the pavements fill with food stalls and low plastic stools.
Top-ranked sights in Hanoi: Ha Long Bay, Hanoi Old Quarter, Long Bien Bridge (Cau Long Bien).
