Echo all reviews - great overview
Did the private tour with my husband and it was great. I think the private tour provided more opportunities to ask lots of questions on how the past impacts the present and get a good first person perspective of how the youth of Vietnam (Gen Z) view society, religion, government, education, etc. versus older generations. No brainer if you’re new to Ha Noi or Vietnam and especially if you’re staying in the French quarter. We went in mid October and it was still so HOT at 95-100F real feel with humidity. Locals said it was unseasonably warm. Prepare accordingly.

Great way to see Hanoi
Peter was a great guide, knowledgeable, polite, patient, and always had good information. A great way to see the highlights of the city. Being in a car really helped get through the narrow streets whereas a normal tour bus wouldn't be able to get as close as our driver did. You will hit some of the must see attractions and doing so with a knowledgeable guide truly elevates the visits. Hopefully you'll be lucky and get Peter as a guide as he was a great guide and was nice enough to send several good recommendations for food near my hotel.

Great guide, great time
We needed a custom itinerary because we were at the end of our trip. So, private in a car. Our guide, Lan , was amazing. High energy, very knowledgeable and had a great delivery. She flexed for us due to mobility challenges, too. I absolutely recommend private car tour with LAN!!! This was our last activity, booked on a whim at the last moment and LAN made it work for us in the time we had. Oh, yeah, she made us reservations for Train Street so we didn’t have to rush there either. Book with LAN!

A very Interesting Afternoon.
We really enjoyed our tour with Rocky. He was very knowledgeable on the history of Vietnam. Particularly the University and the Hoa Lo Prison, and the trauma suffered by the Vietnamese at the hands of the French. Also the history of the Vietnam National University, which began in 1010 and how it developed was also interesting. We got to see the train go through the street, however Rocky was diligent in ensuring we stayed a safe distance from the moving train. We also enjoyed a complimentary and a very much welcome cold drink.
Rocky was also able to give us personal instances of his family’s treatment during the war, making the story even more real.
The driver DA navigated around, making us feel safe amongst the chaos of Hanoi streets. He was also ready to pick us up each time we were ready to drive to the next location.
The entire tour felt like we were being introduced to a town by a relative or friend. My husband and I are both close to 70, and found the tour well within our capabilities.
Thank you Rocky and DA you make a great team!

Hanoi in a day
Tu was great, very passionate about his country. He was friendly and really helpful. The lunch was tasty. I think we missed the Opera house and train street (though we did drive past it). Overall a good way to really see the city and key points of interest. Tiring but worth it.

Great service for a private pick up
Great service. Gave us regular updates prior to getting picked up. Gave clear instructions as to where the pick up point would be.
Driver was on time and messaged us to let us know where he would be. Really helpful with the all the luggage and was a very good driver.
I would definitely recommend

Calm and informative day trip to Ha Long Bay
Hien was very knowledgeable and patient with us and really gave us a good insight of Hanoi and the Hanlong bay, The boat ride itself was calm as was the sampan ride we opted for in lieu of kayaking and well worth it as we saw the inside of lovely caves and explored the limestone shapes. Amazing!

The young male guide's lack of understanding of English and caring...
The young male guide's lack of understanding of English and thoughtfulness allowed me to tour the sights of the city. We also went on a full day tour of Ha Long Bay, but if we knew, we should have gone on a full day tour of the city without going to the crowded bay, which is just far away and uncaring.

10/10 would recommend
We did the tour of the ceramic village with the guides and driver Tuna and Snow. Was fantastic, my mom and I loved it. Was nice to get out of central Hanoi, esp the old quarter and get some more insight on other facets of Vietnamese industries. Got to see both modern ceramic production (stunning stuff) and an ancient set up. Both tuna and snow spoke fantastic English and were good drivers. Super open, knowledgeable and happy to answer all our questions. Thank you so much again - was a highlight so far

Day 1 Sapa review
Day 1 review -
The journey time was gruelling over 250km of road (5-6 hours).
Once there the views were spectacular & quiet, scenic tracks in the country. Su (our guide) accommodated the group's needs and pointed out to us the best photo points. Thank you Su for looking after the group!

Great experience!
Highly recommended this tour! Chip our tour guide was super excited and showed us her personal favorite street food spots in the city. We never would have eaten ourselves because you don't know what you're getting and if it's okay. She also told us ins and outs about the dishes, food traditions and other typical Vietnamese customs, very nice to know more about this.
We have had delicious dishes and is definitely recommended if you are in Hanoi for the first time, so at least you know what to look for when looking for genuine Vietnamese food.
Thank you Chip for this very nice experience and good luck with everything you are going to do in the future!
Love Anne and John
