Wonderful Private Tour in Hanoi - We enjoyed a fantastic day with Travis who is very friendly and knowledgeable. There were some awesome sights and the prison and the train were among the highlights for me. This is a really good tour and one I would highly recommend. I would also highly recommend Harley and Crossing Vietnam Tours who have helped us with several trips at a difficult time after the Typhoon. Harley has given exceptional customer service and really looked after us. Thank you Harley and Yravis.

Limited time in Hanoi and wanted to see it all in a day - This day trip of Hanoi was brilliant. Firstly,  we were expecting a private tour. The guide, Mike, was very knowledgeable and has a great personality. He was enthusiastic to show the best of Hanoi even of we were all melting from the heat and humidity. I would recommend to anyone that is in Hanoi for a short time and wants to see the highlights of Hanoi in one tour. The best part was train street.

Great overview of Hanoi - Duc/Aaron was our guide and he was wonderful. Got to see many of the main attractions and having a driver was great. Able to get to things faster and more comfortable especially since the weather was very hot. The highlight was train street so cool to be inches away from the passing train. Also we told Duc we would love to get some local artwork and he took us to a studio that makes the most beautiful lacquer pictures. They make and sell lacquer pictures as well as other items for your home or for gifts. Would recommend this tour and the company communication beforehand was wonderful through WhatsApp.

Amazing memories with knowledgeable and professional tour guide and driver!! - What an amazing day with Travis, our tour guide. The itinerary was well planned out and extremely interesting! Travis was very knowledgeable, professional, respectful and kind. His English was impeccable. The highlight was our coffee on Train Street, what an incredibly exhilarating experience. Also, enjoyed learning about the various occupations and visiting the B-52 Victory Museum. Our driver was skilled and successfully navigated the streets without difficulty. Thanks again for amazing memories!! Overall, an amazing day and we highly recommend it.

Fantastic experience - Highly Recommend! - Absolutely fabulous tour! Mike spoke excellent English and had so much knowledge about the history of every site we visited. Egg coffee (amazing) as we watched the train whiz past our knees (thrilling) was a real highlight. Lunch was delicious and felt authentic - not overly touristy. My husband was not feeling well that day and needed to return to the hotel quiye early. Mike and our driver were very caring and attentive. Checking in and helping me bring him some food mid-tour while still making sure I got to see all the sites. I'm really sorry my husband had to miss this wonderful tour. A truly memorable day - Highly Recommend!

Great Tour! - My family and I booked our tour very last minute (20:00 the night before), and so, we were very glad that we could have such an amazing experience in Hanoi on such short notice. We had an amazing tour with our guide Ryan who was very knowledgeable about the History and tailored the tour to our liking (we took the private tour so that was possible). the Transport that was provided was also very nice and clean, and the restaurant that he took us to for lunch served really good food! Overall, my family and I had an amazing time and we would recommend this tour to all our friends!
