Eye-Opening and Insightful – A Fresh Take on Hanoi

I’ve been to Hanoi before, but this tour showed me places and stories I had never encountered. We visited small temples tucked away in quiet neighborhoods, explored old bunkers from the war era, and even learned about the city's architecture and how it's evolved. The guide was passionate and knowledgeable, which made every stop meaningful. This is a must-do if you’re interested in Hanoi’s deeper layers beyond the Old Quarter and main landmarks.

Discovering the Real Hanoi Beyond the Tourist Trail

This tour was a fantastic way to explore the lesser-known sides of Hanoi. Our guide took us through quiet alleys, local markets, and historical spots that I would have never found on my own. We learned about Hanoi’s rich history, heard stories from the French colonial period to wartime shelters, and even stopped for some traditional snacks. It felt authentic and personal, not touristy at all. A great choice for curious travelers who want to see the “real” Hanoi!
