Fun day with the amazing guide - We, 2 couples, enjoyed the private tour immensely. The initial correspondence was perfect. All our questions prior to the tour were answered. Nhet, our tour guide, was incredibly amazing, spoke good English and shared wealth of very interesting information with us. He was fun to have a tour with on our first day in Hanoi. The car was very clean and the driver was very courteous. The coffee and beer on the Train Street was so fun. All 4 of us highly recommend the tour agency and are very happy with everything. Thank you so much

Horrible experience - The tournguide was very unprofessional. She looked like she just rolled out of bed in her pj's, uncooked hair and half her fake nails missing. She did not appear to know the proper directions and the driver had to stop and ask directions several times. Our guide did not give us any information and did not have any activities set up for us. We just wandered random streets and alleyways. Trains trees was closed so we ended our tour early. This tour was a complete waste of time and a very odd experience. We weren't sure if the tour guide was hungover or still under the influence of whatever she was partaking of the night before.
