Exciting and different - Incredibly good and friendly guide who knew a lot about the area. Can only be recommended if you want to see anything other than the official Hanoi.

Hanoi Bike Tour - Great time with the family with unique riding experiences through some of the city. Hang on for a challenging ride with traffic but then you get into some laid back areas toward the rice fields. Our guide Pink has been spot on and very enjoyable, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the day. We would definitely jump on this trip again but know how to ride and feel comfortable on a bike before taking this excursion.

Hanoi traffic surfing & rice paddy countryside & quiet lakeside pagoda - Thank you to the amazing guide Nguyễn Thế Đạt. We started on a whole day cycling tour in the city. Quickly we managed to reach the countryside. We took small pathways through the rice paddies. The romantic & peaceful visit to the pagoda of the last Hung king. Archaeologists found fragments on this site going back to the Bronze Age. The different bridges we crossed, the garden islands, the main touristic highlights of the old quarter - it was a history tour at whirlwind speed. The guide Nguyễn Thế Đạt definitely has a bright future in tourism. A great day to be recommended. Request this guide!
