Hanoi Free Private Walking Tour - Linh and Nguyen were fantastic guides for our tour and we had a brilliant day with them. They were so passionate and knowledgable about their history, which meant we had a great experience seeing Hanoi. By the end of day Linh was treating our daughter like a little sister, which made the day even more special. Loved the lunch spot they took us to. The pancakes were delicious!

Insightful and Personalized Tour with Local Students - We had an unforgettable experience with the Hanoi Free Private Guide program. Our guides, Hieu and Thanh, were incredibly thoughtful—always making sure we stayed in the shade, offering us drinks, and keeping us comfortable throughout the tour. Hieu was impressively knowledgeable and a master at keeping the tour moving. Over four hours, we explored some of Hanoi’s cultural gems, including the Heritage House, Hoan Kiem Lake, the Temple of Literature, and St. Joseph’s Cathedral. The guides helped with purchasing tickets to these spots. This program is a fantastic way to see the city through the eyes of passionate local students while they practice their English and share their love for their culture. Highly recommended!

Passionate Student Tour Guide made for a Great Experience - What made this a great tour was the guide, Casey. She was outstanding and made such an effort to accommodate my interests! We also visited a variety of interesting sites within the French Quarter. Overall, if she is your guide, I would highly recommend.

Incredible tour guide experience - I had the absolute pleasure of being shown around Hanoi’s Old Quarter by Minh. Minh listened to my requests and paced the tour to suit my interests and needs. What a pleasure to learn about Vietnam and its culture by someone who was clearly very smart and very knowledgeable. A highlight of my trip.

Excellent Hanoi Walking Tour - My guide Giang was wonderful and he showed me around all the parts of the Old and French Quarters. He walked me through and explained the Hoa Lo Prison Museum. After he took me to an amazing and authentic Vietnamese restaurant.
