Tours in Hanoi

With vibrant streets lined with French colonial buildings and markets that surge through the city’s backstreets, it’s clear to see why Hanoi is one of Asia’s best destinations.

A unique and truly exciting way to see the most beautiful attractions in Hanoi is from the back of a Vespa. With its beautiful classic look, the Vespa is a stylish version of a typical scooter. So put on your helmet and ride at the back of this vintage scooter as your local guide drives you around and navigates the city like locals would.

    Depending on what you would prefer to see, the tour will take you around the must-see landmarks of Hanoi while your local guide offers interesting insights into the city’s culture and history. Some of the famous sites that you’ll pass by are the Hanoi Opera House, West Lake, Phu Tay Ho temple, Long Bien bridge and many more.

Be ready to take in the different aromatic scents wafting from the local food stalls that sell everything from dried seafood to exotic fruits.

     A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the picturesque Ha Long Bay is one of the most popular attractions in Hanoi and a great destination for an unforgettable getaway. The cruise may also include taking part in some exciting activities such as fishing with the local people and enjoying a satisfying lunch at one of the secluded beaches.

  • City tour in a Cyclo

    Cyclo is an open bicycle taxi that’s pedaled by a local driver right behind you. This three-wheeled bicycle came to Vietnam during the French colonial period after a failed attempt to introduce rickshaws to the locals. Riding a cyclo with your local guide is a wonderful way to discover Hanoi’s attractions, including its hidden gems. It’s safe, comfortable, and convenient, and with a local guide beside you, be ready to see a whole new dimension of the city life.

  • Sightseeing walking tour in the Old Quarter

    The streets in the Old Quarter are lined with historic French colonial buildings and packed with food stalls selling a wide variety of local street foods. The experience of exploring this historic area with a knowledgeable local is something that you shouldn’t miss during your time in Hanoi.

     The Old Quarter consists of 36 old streets that look almost similar to each other. Thus, it’s pretty easy to wander as you discover the hidden alleys of the district. Exploring the district with a local is a great way to make the best of your time in the Old Quarter, which is said to be the eternal soul of the Hanoian culture.

From the wide variety of local delicacies at the street side vendors to local cafes and diners, taking part in this food tour is a great way to soak up Hanoi’s exciting culinary culture.

    Follow your local guide as you walk through the maze of stalls while grabbing a bite of some local treats. Prepare your stomach for this gastronomical journey of devouring Banh Cuon, a noodle-wrapped delicacy filled with seasoned pork, sipping a bowl of delicious Pho and satisfying your sweet tooth with a refreshing dessert made from a combination of sweet pudding, dried fruits, jelly bits, and shaved ice.

Imagine having someone who lives and breathes Hanoi spill its secrets. That's what local guides bring to the table. They know the hidden alleys, the best bites, and stories that never made it to the guidebooks. Whether you're into munching through food tours, wandering the city's streets, or going off the beaten path, a local guide hooks you up with a private tour that's authentically Hanoi.

The best part? These tours are all about you. No herding in big groups or rushing through places you're not interested in. With private tours, you're the boss.

But it doesn't stop at city limits. Day trips let you escape the urban jungle and explore nearby wonders. And if you're just setting foot in Hanoi, kickstart tours give you a taste of everything. Think of it as a crash course in Hanoi awesomeness, guided by a local who knows the city like the back of their hand.

So, next time you're in Hanoi, ditch the ordinary. Grab a local tour and unlock the city's real magic – the stories, flavors, and places that make it uniquely Hanoi. Get ready to explore like a local!

    Fantastic family friendly food tour

    "Our family of four with two kids (14 and 10) had a great time with Anh in Hanoi, would definitely recommend! She contacted us in advance to make sure the meet up went smoothly and to ensure we didn’t have any dietary restrictions or had too weird or spicy food for the kids. We explored several stops around old town and everything was delicious. Anh speaks great english and is very funny and social. Book her the next time you’re in Hanoi."

    Review about Lien

    "Had such wonderful morning with Lien who took us on a walking tour of Hanoi. She was so accommodating, happy to meet us at our hotel at 7.30 before the days heat. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the city as well as being super friendly and with excellent English. We loved the experience and could not recommend her more highly. It’s was a fantastic way to learn more about the culture and history of this fascinating city. "

    Great food tour with Train Street finish!

    " This food tour was the first of two experiences we did with Quynh Anh (we just called her Anne, which she was happy with). We met around 6pm near the lake in central Hanoi, and over the next three hours or so she took us to four or five different places, each with a different cuisine — banh mi among them. Again and again these were spots we'd never have found on our own: unnamed restaurants down back alleys that don't show up in any guidebook. The finish was the most memorable part. Thanks to Anne, we ended up at a place right on Train Street with front-row seats for the train coming through — and the kids were delighted watching it pass within a few inches of the storefronts of all the bars along the track. She even had us put a beer bottle cap on the rail, then we picked it up flattened afterwards as a little souvenir of the visit. A really cool touch. A great evening all round — so good, in fact, that we booked Anne again for a second experience. Highly recommended."

    Our perfect day in Hanoi

    "We truly could not have picked a better person to introduce us to the magic of Hanoi!! Ruby was really fun, energetic, extremely knowledgeable and proud of her amazing city and heritage. It felt more like we were exploring the city with our best friend who took us to all of her favourite places and told us stories we will not forget. Thank you Ruby for a great welcome to your city, we miss Hanoi so much already and we promise to see you again!! "
