Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

Our morning tour runs from 8:00 to 12:30, while the afternoon tour goes from 13:00 to 17:30. To get started, simply meet our friendly guide and drivers at your hotel. They'll provide you with important tips on safe bike riding techniques, as well as how to get on and off the Vespa comfortably and use simple signals when needed. Before we hit the road, our tour guide will also give a detailed overview of the itinerary and ask if you have any special food requirements.

Once we're all set, it's time to rock the streets! Our first stop is the iconic Long Bien historic bridge, which represents the perseverance and resilience of the Hanoian people. From there, we'll continue on to other exciting destinations, where you'll get to experience the sights, sounds, and tastes of Hanoi in a unique and unforgettable way.

Our tour takes you on a thrilling ride to both the iconic and lesser-known landmarks of Hanoi, revealing the city's rich cultural and historical heritage. One of our unique stops includes walking along the legendary 150-year-old train tracks, where you'll discover a local neighborhood where people live in close quarters, with only one meter of space on each side.

To refresh ourselves after the walk, we'll quench our thirst with a glass of the national drink, Bia Hoi, before embarking on a short cruise to West Lake. There, you'll enjoy the cool breeze and stunning views of the lake, making for a relaxing and scenic interlude in the middle of our adventure.

Our adventure continues as we weave through the narrow alleys, eventually arriving at Huu Tiep Lake. Here, a dramatic piece of history lies submerged beneath the water's surface: an aircraft that was shot down in 1972 during the Vietnam War. Despite the tragedy, the surrounding neighborhood is peaceful and serene.

As part of our tour, we'll also visit a local family and chat with the owner, a war veteran who has fascinating stories to share about Vietnam's past and present. From his childhood memories to modern-day experiences, we'll gain a deeper understanding of the country's complex legacy. Along the way, we'll also learn more about Vietnamese culture and customs, immersing ourselves in the local way of life.

During our tour, we make it a priority to support the local community by dining at eateries and family-run businesses. This not only allows us to savor authentic dishes but also provides an opportunity to experience the places where locals love to gather with their friends.

For lunch, we'll indulge in delicious meals at these local spots, enjoying the flavors and aromas of Hanoi's rich culinary traditions. And no visit to Hanoi would be complete without sipping on the famous Egg Coffee, a specialty drink that dates back to 1946. This delightful concoction is a must-try for anyone visiting the city, and we'll be sure to stop at a top-rated cafe to experience it firsthand.
