    Even though it was pouring rain the whole time, this tour was very enjoyable. The guide was engaging and we visited all the sights I had hoped to see.

  • 5Hanoi trip

    It was nice, tour is great. Tour guide Qui is very helpful and thoughtful to us. Unfortunate we did not go to Trang An because the water level is high, instead we went to Tam Coc, but the good thing is the company refunded us the remaining amount of fee for Trang An. Nice of them. Lots of food as well with good selections.

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).
