Great full experience and AMAZING food tour! - You think 7 hours won't give you a full experience? Think again! Alex planned everything and adapted as we went (based on my preference, etc.). In the end, I was able to visit three historical sites, drive through the old city district, appreciate the lake, and end with the BEST food tour, all in just 7 hours. I was very impressed as we were able to skip some of the long waiting lines going through different entrances, thanks to his expert knowledge, without missing any of the scenic sites. Whenever plaques/boards explaining the history and the significance of the place was there, he left me to read as I am the type of person who doesn’t miss opportunities like this, and he also added more information and facts that were not explained there. Not only did he only explain historical facts at each place, but Alex also added contexts that are still engraved in today’s Vietnamese culture. Food tour was definitely a highlight as I love trying new foods, which he definitely did deliver. I tried so many flavors, textures, and aromas, I wish I could bring them back with me. Alex was an amazing guide, especially considering my very last-minute reservation (please don’t be like me and plan ahead), and thanks to his work, I am definitely coming back to Vietnam to explore more about this beautiful country and great food!

Perfect Hanoi Layover Experience – Highly Recommend! - I recently joined the 7-hour layover Hanoi trip with Alex, and it exceeded all expectations. Communication was seamless from the start—clear, prompt, and professional. The driver arrived on time, and everything was well-organized. Our guide, Alexa, was absolutely outstanding. She took us to fascinating spots around Hanoi and shared insightful and clear information throughout. The highlight for me was the food experience—she brought us to several local eateries where we had the chance to taste a wide variety of authentic Vietnamese dishes. It felt less like a tour and more like exploring the city with a knowledgeable local friend. If you have a short layover in Hanoi, I highly recommend this company. A big thank you to both Alex and Alexa for such a memorable experience. I’ll definitely use their services again!

Best guide in Hanoi - True to what other reviews have mentioned, Alex is very friendly, speaks fluent English and goes out of his way to make sure we are comfortable. He is very versatile, able to adjust activities based on last minute requests. He also helped us made a restaurant reservation which was greatly appreciated given that we were not in town yet. We did a walking food tour with him which turned out very well. He was very considerate to ask ahead on dietary restrictions. You won’t go wrong engaging Alex as a guide.

Cruise port shore excursion with transfer from Ha Long - Alex is a polite, knowledgeable, and flexible tour guide. He was timely and responsive to my questions leading up to the tour date. He is articulate and speaks English very well. Alex arranged a driver to pick us up from the Halong Bay international cruise terminal (8am) into Hanoi (2hr drive). Alex was at the drop off point (Temple of Literature) to greet us, we also visited the Hoa Lo Prison, walked through the old quarter and the French quarter. Alex tells stories and history at each site. We also wanted to eat specific foods, so Alex fit in coffee and food stops into the schedule (we paid for our foods). Alex was attentive, ensuring we successfully crossed the roads and would call out ‘mind the gaps’ on streets. From the lunch stop to Hoa Lo prison, Alex requested for ride service (ie like Uber) but there was road closures, so we decided to walk 15min instead. We ended our 1/2day tour at the prison. Our arrangement with Alex had 3hrs free time at the end. So he also coordinated a driver back to the cruise terminal (at 7pm). The driver doesn’t stay with us all day, instead when we were ready to leave, Alex requested a driver to pick us up. Overall I felt confident working with Alex and our day in Hanoi was productive.

- My guide was lovely. She arranged the itinerary to suit the day and the fact that I was so tired after an overnight flight. Nothing was too much trouble.
