Picture Perfect 3 hr Tour of Hanoi - My tour guide Bo picked me up at my hotel and we rode around Hanoi on his scooter. My tour included the Ao Dai (Vietnamese costume.) Bo took great photos of me around Hanoi's tourist spots. The highlight was experiencing the train tracks.

Personalised tour ! - Being Sunday it was very busy everywhere but we enjoyed it nonetheless. Our guide Travis was fun, fluent and knowledgeable. We finished earlier than planned due to the cathedral being busy (Sunday) but Travis then took us to the street murals which we really enjoyed, what a bonus !

Stick with Nick the Jedi - We had an amazing day. Nick, our guide, was quite simply brilliant. Fantastic English, very knowledgeable and totally engaging with a fantastic sense of humour. He even managed to make me look taller in a photo 🤣 We loved Train Street and the various Temples as always, were incredible. Definitely recommend

Great day out with Bang! - Bang was so keen on catering the tour to our interests. He was really fun to tour around Hanoi with and made us all feel like old friends. We had sooo many questions and he answered them all with patience and even taught us some words in vietnamese. After the tour, he took the extra time to help us to our lunch spot and to find the bank. I’d recommend this tour to all my friends and anyone who is really interested in getting to know the history and culture of Vietnam and who wants to have fun doing it!

Good overall tour of Hanoi. With Train Street! - Train Street was fun! This tour included the Hanoi prison, but not some of the places we thought were included the temple of literature. Overall, we learned a lot and our guide and driver were very nice!
