Do not miss this experience!! - This tour was the highlight of our trip! Please do yourself a favour and book one of their many trips. We are a male/female 45 year old couple from Ireland. We requested last minute due to other commitments earlier in our trip and they still were able to make time for us. I wish we'd booked this at the start of our trip! Our guides and drivers were Hoa, Summi and Linh. They spoke excellent English and were very knowledgeable about Hanoi diverse history. They even tailored the tour for us based in what we had and had not already seen. There is plenty of opportunity to stop and take photos. The whole experience is very safe. You are in very good hands. We saw and experienced so much: the street murals, old quarter, the french quarter, a wet/food market, banana island, the 122 year old bridge, many narrow alleyways you'd be unlikely to find on your own. We passed Ho Chi Minh's mausoleum, the temple of literature, we went into the B52 museum. We personally requested to skip train street as our hotel was beside it and we had already seen it many times. We stopped for an incredibly filling lunch and they even made accommodations for me as a vegetarian, while my partner was able to eat all the meat options. We stopped again to try salt coffee as I'd mentioned we'd not had the chance to try it. I wish I could rate this trip 10 stars. Thank you for the lasting and exceptional memories of Hanoi!!!
