The tour guide was punctual and also was able to make sure i was safe while crossing the road, the tour around the Prison Muesume could have been longer, the food (Bun Cha) was so delicious with a unique experience and loved the walk around the lake as well. My tour guide even helped me take cute pictures and learnt to make egg coffee:)
Really enjoyable tour. We got to experience train street, Ho Lao Prison, an egg coffee workshop, and the famous Bun Cha. We walked the streets of the Old Quarter with our wonderful and very knowledgeable tour guide, My. Would highly recommend this tour.
