Shore Excursion: Fulddagstur i Hanoi fra Halong Havn

We had a great day on this Hanoi shore excursion and would highly recommend it. Lily was very friendly and helpful. From start to finish everything was very well organised. We were met promptly at the port and the transport was comfortable for the journey into Hanoi. We knew it was a long drive, but it was worth it to experience the city in a day (and the guide kept things interesting along the way). Once in Hanoi, the itinerary covered all the key highlights. We especially enjoyed visiting the Old Quarter and Train Street, a real highlight and something quite unique. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable and happy to answer questions, giving us a great insight into the history and culture of Vietnam. Lunch was interesting and gave us a chance to try some authentic local food. Overall, it was a really enjoyable and well-paced tour. Yes, it’s a full day with quite a bit of travel, but if you want to see Hanoi while docked in Halong, this is a great way to do it. A brilliant experience and great value for money.

This was along trip in à mini bus with no seat belts and poor air conditioning. The guide Lyon was good but it looked at times he was making the itinerary up as he went along. Don’t get me wrong, the trip in between the travelling was memorable, the highlights being train street and the trishaw ride. I’m afraid the restaurant we were taken to was dirty inside, and the food was not to our liking. We chose this company as their itinerary looked better than the other company we were using for other tours, hindsight is a great thing.

We had a fantastic day with our guide sonny, the eight of of us were picked up from our cruise ship on time and spent the day visiting train street , a temple, having lunch and a rickshaw ride. Sonny was informative and interesting! This small group tour was perfect as we were able to see everything without following and waiting for a large group . Would definitely use up Vietnam travel again.

We are a group of 6 and booked a private excursion from our cruise ship. It took about one hour and a half from my cruise ship to arrive to Hanoi. Our driver was.Hai and our tour guide was Lily. They are such an amazing team. The band was extremely comfortable and the ride seemed very quick as Lily provided us with so much information. They also stopped to allow us to take a bathroom break. Once we reached Hanoi, we were able to visit several sites, but I have to say the highlight was train street. It was such an exhilarating experience Lily insured that we had front row seat and even took amazing pictures. We were also able to try the egg coffee and a Banh Mi sandwich, which was spectacular. We were also treated to a traditional Vietnamese lunch at a restaurant that was very accommodating. The staff were so friendly. it was a perfect day with the perfect team. I highly recommend booking with this tour group. they are always informative and gives information prior to the day of the tour.

This was another fabulous day out with Lyon, so friendly, knowledgeable and fitted in many sites keeping us on the move. It was a jam packed day with authentic food for lunch and an icecream at the best place in Hanoi. The highlight of the tour was Train Street which was incredible to sit and watch and to be so close to the train when it comes through. Lyon thank you for looking after us throughout the day making it fun especially with the tricycle ride. Highly recommend lyon and Uptravel for any future visitors thinking of visiting Vietnam it's a beautiful country 😊

Highly recommend our tour through Up Travel headed by Lyon and Ryan. We booked online with Lyon directly placing a small reservation fee. After that discussion and deposit he placed us with others traveling on our cruise ship with information regarding pick up, what to expect to etc Having this link allowed others traveling together an opportunity to connect as well. As promised we met Lyon at the port terminal and to our coach van. Heading to our destination we enjoyed the landscapes of Veitnam arriving 2.5 hours later in a whole new world far from our experiences in Canada. The day was full of new sights and sounds and our guides gave us information all along the way in an easy paced walk abouts. Highlites for us were train street, the bike ride through French quarter, lunch in an authentic restaurant, famous ice-cream stop lol and all the other amazing spots in Veitanaese history. Due to our van driver picking us up and dropping us off the various stops (tour busses couldnt access) , walking was easy . Thank you to these fine people of Veitnam for making our journey a most pleasant memory.

Mr Thomas, our guide, took us through amazing experiences in Hanoi. We got to ride in a pedi cab, experience the train drive-through town, inches from us, while we had coffee as well as the sites and fabulous food in this city. Wonderful memories!!

Outstanding value and personal attention. Included a fabulous lunch with very knowledgeable guide. Victor adapted to our schedule request and we had a great day!

Had a wonderful day in Hanoi exploring all the sights. Our tour guide GAM, was very knowledgeable and helpful. She was also very flexible with helping to go to the best locations.

We had just the best day out in Hanoi. Vu our guide & our driver were so good, very knowledgeable about the area & the trip was seamless from start to finish. Train Street was an amazing experience as was the rickshaw ride through Central Hanoi, the traffic was mad but good fun. We had lunch which was also excellent & part of the trip. From booking to going on the trip the communication was really good, would definitely recommend.
