It's a MUST if you visit Hanoi! - One of the highlights of my vacation and a must do for everyone visiting Hanoi. It was a real joy! Nguyen answered all my photography questions concerning (street) photography. This combined with the best possible locations and (if needed) help with composition. Tour was booked October 31st 2024

Amazing experience - Old quarters is vibrant and beautiful. Walking the narrow alleys and bylanes with Nguyen was just amazing. He showed me the best places to take photographs. At my request we spent an hour at Hanoi train street which was the best part of the photo tour. Would highly recommend this tour to all photo enthusiasts.

Great company to explore Hanoi and take photos! - Top signature experience! Definitely one of my favorite things I've done in Vietnam. I love taking street photos/videos but felt a bit overwhelmed to explore on my own. So booking with Nguyen was the best idea! He asked about my background and what do I usually film (which is videos, not photos haha) and we went on exploring! Had a great time and learned a lot interesting stuff about culture and ways of living from a local person. If you're in doubt of activities in Hanoi -choose this one (even if you're not a pro photographer), it's 100% worth it!

Fantastic photo tour - We had a great experience with Mr. Nguyen. He was very easy to communicate with. He tailored a photo tour based on my needs/wants as I’m a professional photographer.

Insightful with the Lens - I originally had my tour from 8am - 10:30am and told Nguyen that I'd have to cut it 30 minutes short because I had a flight to HCM at 12. He gracefully accommodated me and asked if we could meet up at 7:30am instead so I could get the full tour. It was a really insightful and beautiful tour/ experience with Nguyen. He's very easy to talk to and is exceptional behind the camera. Whether you're new to photography or have been shooting for years, it's worth checking this tour out.

Great way getting to know Hanoi - It was simply the perfect way to discover the city! Ngyen is really cool guy who knows not only a lot about photography but also about Hanoi and its people. He showed us great spots for street photography while also sharing a lot about the daily live in Vietnam. I can absolutely recommend it!

Enjoy Hanoi street photography with a real expert - I am very interested in the street photography. When I was in Hanoi I decided that I needed a guide to help me take good photos. I was very lucky that I chose Mai Hue's photo tour. He is a real expert in all sorts of cameras.I have a Panasonic mirrorless camera. He didn't have any problems to adjust all the settings in 5 minutes. We went to locations where I could catch a glimpse of life in Vietnam, took many photos and at the end of the tour discussed how I could improve my skills enjoying Vietnamese coffee at the same time.
One more thing. Mai told me
that my camera was good but its lenses were not the best for the street photography. I still could shoot very good photos, thanks to Mai's professional advice and patience. He recommended which lenses I should use next time. I bought them after that trip.
I cannot wait until I am in Hanoi again and have another photo tour with Mai to try
the new lenses, taking more photos and enjoying his company.

A wonderful way to see Hanoi - My guide Lily, had a wonderfully relaxed way about her. We shared our different photography experiences and techniques with each other an in doing so was able to take on some of her knowledge when it came to looking for scenes or compositions that tell a story. I was taken through the local streets of the Old Quarter and the local markets which, some of which I know I wouldn't have ventured into without having been shown. It was a worthwhile experience and one I would recommend anyone do.
