Fun, easy going and very knowledgeable! - Nam and Anna did an amazing job in customizing our afternoon tour since we had seen a good bit of the city already. They were easy to talk to and both were very eager to make the most of our time. Nam and Anna were so helpful and courteous with keeping us safe as we crossed several big streets. Both went above and beyond to be sure we were comfortable and happy throughout our tour.

Highly recommended and authentic - A great experience and an excellent tour. Our guide Linh (sorry if I spelled it wrong) had the best food tips and told us a lot about Vietnamese culture at the lake and in the temple. What I liked best was that this private tour also gave us an authentic exchange about life in different countries. She explained to us what student life is like in Hanoi and we were very curious. As vegetarians we had no problems at all, Linh even showed us a place where they serve veggie banh mi. That was great because we initially thought we wouldn't be able to eat this dish on our trip to Vietnam. It was a lovely experience and I absolutely recommend it.

MEMORABLE GUIDED TOUR OF HANOI CITY SIGHTS - We had a very interesting tour of Hanoi city on March 31, covering the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum sites, Temple of Literature, and the Hua Lo prison. It was made possible by the gentle and proactive care which Ms Gracie Hoai, our very knowledgeable and helpful guide, extended to us all through. With her help, we negotiated the long queues during our 'pilgrimage' to venerable Hoe Chi Minh's Mausoleum and his Presidential Palace. Doing the rounds of the Confucian Temple of Literature, with its layered history and grand architecture was made thoroughly enjoyable and informative, thanks again to the inputs we received from our worthy guide. Hearing and witnessing at first hand the moving and inspirational sacrifice of Vietnamese patriots imprisoned in the Hua Lo prison left a lasting impression in our minds.

It was amazing! Thu is an amazing guide! - I had the best day in Hanoi with Thu. As soon as we’ve met she asked me about where have I been in Hanoi before, so we see something different. She is very knowledgeable and kind, that has made my experience very fun and I felt so at ease as our conversation was flowing! I highly recommend taking the tour as you get to meet real people and have real experience of Hanoi, understand history, food and culture. Thank you Thu, you are amazing! 🙏❤️ Love, Eugina
