Pleasantly Wonderful Discoveries - Getting to know Hanoi through Duc was fun, the experience full of learnings. We appreciate how accommodating he is. Enjoyed the drive to the countryside to visit the incense village and even tried our hand at dyeing the sticks and setting them out to dry. Loved the egg coffee in a cafe in one of the oldest houses of Hanoi. Overall enjoyed the day.

Incense village tour Vietnam - Great trip with our tour guide he was very informative. We travelled by car to the village from Hanoi which I would recommend over a bike due to distance. The Pho breakfast was delicious & the egg coffee was too surprisingly. All round a great day thank you. Would highly recommend.
