Great tour guides - Nice tour with two your tour guides -Anna and Henry. Both were friendly and knowledgeable. Anna is a cheerful and talkative. It’s a bit of a long tour. They meet in front of stature near the lake. No pickup at hotel as it’s a walking tour. Need to take a Grab and meet at the meeting point.

Hanoi Old Quarter tour - This was a solo three-hour guided tour of Hanoi's Old Quarter. As well as being an excellent and knowledgeable guide, Tom also took the time to tailor the tour to my interests, which was greatly appreciated.

A Very Special Day - Thank you David for a fabulous day!
David picked us up on time and was really happy to listen to our requests. We asked him to show us the special places in Hanoi and he did not disappoint! We saw areas and experienced things that we would never have done on our own! Who knew that the electric buses in Hanoi are free and who knew that there is a “new Hanoi” half hour drive from the city. Wow. We were all completely blown away!
We are so honoured to have spent the day with David and very happy to have had the good fortune to meet him. We wish him all the very best ❤️ 🇻🇳
