Excellent Hanoi city tour - We had a really great day with Mai in Hanoi. She showed us all the highlights with passion and energy, gave us really helpful advise and impressed us with her knowledge of the Vietnamese history. She explained some famous dishes, and showed us great coffee places to relax. And after we already left Hanoi she sent me some information for the rest of our trip which made it even better!
