Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, 2 Hung Vuong Ba Dinh Square, Hanoi 100000 Vietnam

Part 1: Hanoi Highlights: (2 hours)

You will be greeted by the tour guide and driver at your hotel lobby we then ride to Ho Chi Minh Complex to have a quick visit to Ho chi Minh mausoleum – the Mecca of Vietnamese, Ba Dinh square, Presidential Palace, Ho Chi Minh Residential area and One Pillar Pagoda.

Duration: 1 hour 10 minutes

Stop At: Temple of Literature & National University, Quoc Tu Giam Street Dong Da District, Hanoi 100000 Vietnam

After Ho Chi Minh Complex, we move to Temple Of Literature, a 1000 year-old iconic architecture of Hanoi to learn about Vietnamese long-standing culture and history.

Duration: 40 minutes

Stop At: Hanoi Train Street, Hanoi 100000 Vietnam

Despite the famous TRAIN STREET of Hanoi recently has been CLOSED by the local government, we know exactly HOW, WHEN & WHERE to take you there to wait for and capture the fun moments of the day by sitting by the train street cafe and watching the train passing by. We guarantee that TRAIN STREET is a part of our trip.

Duration: 20 minutes

Stop At: Hai Ba Trung Temple, 12 Huong Vien Street, Dong Nhan Ward, Hanoi 10000 Vietnam

Part 2: Hanoi Hidden Gems: (2,5 hours)
We are NOT visiting Hai Ba Trung temple but we just indicate the area of Hanoi where we take you to and expose the hidden gems of Hanoi, like a living museum about the day in the life of Hanoi People.

Explore the parts-unknown of Hanoi by riding through the maze of zigzagging backstreet and narrow alleyways and markets. Diving into the rivers of motorbikes and Hanoi street symphony. Traveling with all your senses heightened: Watching, Hearing, Touching, Tasting and smiling. Experiencing the GOOD, the BAD, and the WEIRD of the city as it is what it is. Experiencing different slides of life behind the scene, the hidden part of the iceberg. Meeting people where they live, work, learn and pray. Building personal connections and culture exchanges.

*Note: Hai Ba Trung Temple is the area where we visit, so you could easily get the idea about the part of Hanoi that we visit, NOT necessary to come in more Temple on the trip.


Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Stop At: Long Bien Bridge, Ngoc Thuy, Hanoi Vietnam

Long Biên Bridge is the oldest iron bridge in Vietnam, built in 1889 by French colonial, was imbued with national identity even though it was a modern architectural heritage at that time, as the French gave it the shape that resembles a dragon flying over the Red River, which is associated with the cultural symbol of Hà Nội. A short walk here gives you a great angle of Hanoi for photos and we also take you to the countryside of Hanoi to explore the peaceful and tranquil villages and farms around the city.

Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Hidden Gem Cafe Hanoi, 1 Hàng Mắm, Phố cổ Hà Nội, Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội, Vietnam

A quaint little coffee shop in the heart of Hanoi Old Quarter. All furniture is creatively made from cycled materials. Serving authentic & organic Vietnamese coffee and drinks. It is a truly hidden gem of Hanoi where we chill out and have best egg coffee before riding back to the hotel.

Highly highly recommend! What a fun way to experience Hanoi on the back of a roofless jeep! We took the half day package to see the sights around Hanoi, including Ho Chi Minh mausoleum, train street, West Lake, and others. I would say that it’s a bit pricey (for someone living in South East Asia) but it’s so worth it. Our guide, Hai, was excellent, informative, and will take pictures for you 👍🏼 terima kasih!

We had Louis as guide together with the driver… we all had a great morning touring Hanoi and the sights plus back streets… we also went to his family’s home to see how people live here. Navigating traffic even on a Sunday is tough and he did some great driving! Louis did great with history of parts of the city and made it fab trip. The lunch provided was excellent and the hidden gem cadge a lovely setting

Amazing tour. Our guide Riley was amazing she really knew her stuff. Went to some cool locations, including the famous train street. Got a first hand experience at sitting less then a meter away from the speeding train as it passed. Had an amazing lunch at the Hidden Gem Cafe. Tried the traditional egg coffee, this is a must try, so delicious.

Excellent way to cover off the city’s key landmarks! We travelled with three young children and opted for the 2.5 hour private tour. Travelling through this bustling city in a Jeep was unique and fun. Definitely an experience to remember and the kids had a great time. Our guide, Q (Quan) was super friendly and knowledgeable. We highly recommend it.

Nice experience to visit Hanoi in a different way, beginning by a delicious lunch in a very special place. Nice tour especially to see the train at the train street, amazing despite the rain (raincoat was given) Thanks to our guide Hai and the driver to drive in these Hanoi jungle streets. Meeting locals… 👏

Giang was a fabulous tour guide. Very knowledgeable and pleasant. The afternoon went past very quickly. Was given a wonderful tour of the surroundings. Many backstreets as the name suggests and some fabulous other places of interest. Well done Giang and our driver Cung. Thoroughly enjoyed our tour.
