Conical Travel tour in Duong Lam village - My wife and I did a private Duong Lam village tour. We arranged it with Jack Vu at Conical Travel, and he happened to be our guide for the tour. Jack picked us up on time at our hotel in Hanoi. There was a spacious, comfortable vehicle with a separate driver. The Duong Lam tour was very enjoyable, good pace for my wife and me (we are both 60), no rushing. We visited 3 ancient homes, each over 200 years old, resided by generations from the original family. We spent time talking to Buhn, one of the owners, who was 15th generation in his home. He lived there with his son's family, including Buhn's grandchildren. He was a lovely, gentle man in his 80's. It was very memorable speaking with him. Later we ate locally prepared lunch meal at another ancient home, and it was delicious. Jack was an excellent guide, who knew the village well, and he explained the culture and history of the village well. The tour was reasonably priced and easy to arrange by contacting Conical Travel through their website. I would highly recommend Jack Vu and Conical Travel for tour arrangements, including Duong Lam village.

Hidden Gem in Hanoi - This tour differs from tours such as tours to Ninh Binh and Ha Long Bay in that there is not the Wow factor that you get with the other tours. It is a pretty cool tour though as you get to explore a village that is for the most part has not been oversaturated with tourists. The tour guide, Duc, was excellent and very knowledegable of the area and it's history. Many of the houses have been standing for centuries. We had lunch with a local family, their home was almost 300 years old and was quite beautiful. The host family was friendly and very accomodating. I'm on a business trip and it was quite nice to have a home-cooked meal rather than eating out constantly. Great day and overall a great tour.
