Walking Tour - I am glad I did this tour. I admire Maiya’s dedication to her job and her desire to learn English. I asked plenty of questions which she answered very well. I have learned a lot from her.

A lovely day discovering Hanoi with a local - Sao was an incredible guide! She customized the tour based on what I liked and explained everything clearly in English. She was so attentive and even offered to stop at shops whenever I saw something I liked. I only stopped once, but I really appreciated the gesture! Thanks again, Sao!

A Great Way to Learn about Hanoi - I asked Quinn my guide to take me to 3 locations (the pagoda at West Lake, Han Lo prison & the Asian House) - we also had lunch and an egg coffee. Quinn was exceptional - knows lots about Hanoi and Vietnam's history, extremely enthusiastic and a really lovely person. I had a very enjoyable tour and it was an excellent way to start my trip to Vietnam
