Great Day with an Exceptional Tour Guide! - Our tour guide Duc was very kind and knowledgeable! He was very accommodating as to what we were interested in seeing and made sure that each member of our group was safe and accounted for as well, especially with the crazy Vietnam traffic. We really felt we were in good hands - during our trip to Asia we had a lot of tour guides and Duc was by far one of the best. I would definitely recommend Duc to anyone looking to have a great day learning about local history and experiencing the best of what Hanoi City has to offer.

Outstanding Hanoi private tour - Excellent tour! We had Mickey as our guide. He was informative, friendly and fun! There were 6 of us in a roomy VIP van for 8 and we asked lots of questions! Mickey accommodated our schedule and time and even took us to a 120 year old coffee house for some Excellent Vietnam coffee! It was a perfect tour complete with NY celebrations at the Imperial Citadel.

Eventful tour - Pros - The special itinerary cater to our group. Best was the pho and dumplings we ate at, highlight was seeing the train pass on the narrow street. Cons - long drive to and from Hanoi, the mini van had garbage and cigarette smoke smell inside.

Fun Back of Scooter Tour - Very fun tour. Our party of 4 had 4 university students that took us around all the sights of Saigon on the back of scooters. Had terrific food and drinks from the area. Saw things that most others would not see. Drive was fairly long (2+ hours) from cruise port. Didn't have any concerns with traffic, safety or food. Highly recommend.

Thank you Peter for a fabulous day! - Peter was our terrific guide! He addressed every need of ours. It was a private tour so he was flexible. He truly did everything he could to make our experience in Hanoi a great one. Anyone would be lucky to have Peter as a guide.

Great day trip - This excursion is a great stress-free way to visit Hanoi while docked in Ha Long Bay. Round trip with our great guide and driver. He was attentive and informative while showing the city's highlights and stopped several times to experience the local foods and treats. He allowed considerable time touring the Hanoi Hilton Prison with its interesting history during the Vietnam war years. Highly recommend this day trip, although long, but well worth the time. And don't forget to try the peanut butter ice coffee our guide recommended.
