Top Hanoi Day Trips

Nick was so friendly funny and told us some great stories!He spoke very good English and easier to understand compared to other Vietnamese guides! We really enjoyed the tour and the food was so delicious. We tried 5 different dishes and without a local guide you would not know where to go and what to try! Specially street food you need to know which place is safe to eat. We had a laugh and Nick also bought us some poncho as it was raining so much and we continued the tour and took funny pics with ponchos! I would highly recommend it!

My guide was Sao and she went above-and-beyond to make sure I had an amazing experience! She taught me about history, culture, and took me to the spots I really wanted to see. She was absolutely delightful and I'm hoping to connect with her the next time I visit. 5-star service and a truly wonderful day!

I had an amazing experience on my Ninh Binh excursion in Vietnam! From the very beginning, everything was handled professionally—the tour guide Sunny picked me up right on time from my hotel, which made the day start stress-free. He managed all the activities smoothly and kept everything running on schedule without making it feel rushed. His English was very good, and he provided clear instructions throughout the day, which made the entire experience easy and enjoyable. The lunch buffet was another highlight—there was a wide variety of dishes, including plenty of vegetarian options, and everything was fresh and delicious. The itinerary itself was fantastic, with a great mix of activities including a temple visit, a peaceful bamboo boat ride, a fun bicycle ride, and hiking. It was the perfect balance of sightseeing and adventure. Overall, it was a well-organized and memorable trip. I’d definitely recommend this excursion to anyone visiting Vietnam!

We had an absolute blast. Louis took care of us extremely well and our driver/biker was great and friendly too! This is a really good tour giving quite a unique perspective to how it is to motorbike/scooter around Hanoi. Very much recommended and should be high on your list of things to do and experience here, seeing a train on train street was a great bonus!

This was an excellent tour taking you to the authentic local restaraunts. I initially thought that it would be a group tour of 10, but was pleasantly surprised that each tour is what you make of it. I was on a solo excursion, and there were different sized groups of 2, 4 etc. In my case my guide Simone and I only ran into one other group once, and we continued 1:1, it's completely flexible. Welll worth it.

Absolutely worthwhile, extremely good value adventure among Ha Long Bay’s gorgeous islets. The 3 stops included kayaking through a cave to an enclosed area with monkeys (row boats available for people with less energy), a guided walk through Surprise Cave and then Titop Island where you can either walk to the viewpoint (about 100m up, lots of steps) to enjoy fabulous views or chill on the beach. The tour itself was very well organized. Our home base was the boat Vera Cruise where we were served a delicious lunch as we left the cruise terminal. Staff were available at all times; beyond the included lunch there was a comprehensive beverage menu. Our guide Quan was great and kept us on track time-wise. The day we went was unusually crowed due to 2 big ships in town that day and the weather was overcast/hazy but we still had a fantastic time.

This tour is perfect for first timers to Hanoi and helps you get aquainted with the city. Guide and driver were exceptional. Lan, our guide, was very good at telling us about each place and was super friendly. She went out of her way to assist us throughout the tour.

Fabulous day. The catamaran was very comfortable with loads of space. The sofa and chairs were great for relaxing. There is a bar and a jacuzzi. Waterslides too, for those who like them. Most of all the guide Xin chào was excellent. He kept us well informed, ran the whole day very professionally. The food on board is also excellent. The coach transfer is comfortable.
