Insightful and unforgettable bike tour through Hanoi - We had an amazing bike experience with our tour guide 'Pinkman'. We got different impressions of the city, the countryside of Hanoi and also could visit a local farmer family. And, the experience of the train street including a train that actually passed it while we had a coffee there was unforgettable! We can highly recommend this tour to people who are interested to see many different pretty places of Hanoi while riding a bike. Thank you again Pinkman for this insightful tour and all your time you spent to answer all our questions about Hanoi and Vietnam! :-)

Great trip! - Great trip! End was my tour guide and he had lots of interesting info about each of the sites we visited. His English was fantastic. The bbq noodle place we went to for lunch was delicious! The traffic was daunting at first though we navigated our way safely. Overall, a wonderful way to spend the morning.

Nice impression of Hanoi by bike - We did a private bike ride with Pink man with our two sons aged 12 and 14. Fine (sport) bikes with helmet. This did not feel excessive, because cycling in Hanoi sometimes felt a bit suicidal;). We had booked the afternoon tour so we cycled on banana island in the heat of the day and with our tired bodies it was a bit difficult. Pinkman took this into account, made sure we could refuel with an elderly couple with homemade ice tea. Then the rest of the tour along the Pagoda (very nice), mausoleum of HCM and of course Trainstreet. In addition, we got delicious food and drank our first egg coffee. Thank you Pinkman!!!
