Had a great morning with Sam. The stops on the tour got all the highlights intending Hanoi. It had good pacing with refreshments and food, and a good mix of walking and transport. Sam was very knowledgeable about everything we saw, and he was extremely helpful by offering tips for the rest of our stay.

Great first day in Hanoi!
We had such a great time with An on this private tour. She was so knowledgeable and always able to answer our questions! She has such a great love for her country and it made the tour all the more enjoyable! The tour was a great introduction to the city and we got to try Bun Cha (which is our new favourite Vietnamese dish!). An gave us so many great recommendations! 100% worth it if it’s your first time in Hanoi. Thank you so much An!!!

Hanoi city tour March 14th 2026
Chi chin was fun to be with any very informative. We can highly recommend him as a tour guide.
Tea cafe was exceptional and wouldn’t have found it without him.
He also recommended a place to eat in the evening, in the old quarter. Which was fantastic and so worth waiting to be seated as it was extremely busy.

A great introduction to Hanoi
Took the morning highlights tour with San and it was excellent. A great introduction to Hanoi, Vietnam, the culture, and the people. San was a wealth of knowledge and answered all our questions. He was also able to share personal stories and insights that made the tour really memorable. A great way to start my trip to Vietnam and I would highly recommend this tour.

Well spent morning
Was a beautiful tour and An was a lovely guide, gave us lots of facts and was happy to assist. Loved that she is so proud of her country and how far it has come.

Exactly what we wanted
An was an amiable and knowledgeable guide who tailored the tour to our family beautifully. We enjoyed getting a grounding in Hanoi and being taken to spots we'd otherwise not have experienced. The Tea house was lovely and quiet and Pho for lunch was a perfect finish to our half day out.

Hanoi Morning with An
We had a great morning exploring some of the quieter side of Hanoi with An. Loved the tea house (with cats!) and the temple of Literature. An was able to present the information in a fun and engaging way so that even our teen enjoyed herself.

100% worth doing as a first timer in Hanoi
Today I went on a tour with Hanoi Urban Adventures. I did the "Private Hanoi: Crowd-free Morning Highlights of the City" tour, booked via the Intrepid website.
An was my tour guide for the day. An introduced herself and spoke English, which was great for me who only knows very little Vietnamese. The tour started with a car pickup from my hotel which was very convenient.
We started off at the University Temple of Literature, then to traditional tea house "Hien Minh" where I was able to try local red leaf and lotus tea. It was very delicious and the tea house was very calming in contrast to the busy and hectic Hanoi streets just outside.
Afterwards, we went to Hỏa Lò prison (Hanoi Hilton) that was used by both the French during their time in power and later the North Vietnamese to imprison captured US soldiers during the Vietnam war.
Later, An took me to see Hoàn Kiếm Lake (Sword Lake) and the Đền Ngọc Sơn temple in the centre.
Finally, we finished at Phở Thìn Bờ Hồ with a bowl of traditional beef Phở.
It was a great tour and An was very informative, with a great wealth of knowledge to share about Hanoi. Thank you, An!

Hanoi food tour and city tour
Tommy did a wonderful job as a guide for the food tour and the Hanoi city tour. I was very happy to have him as my guide for both activities. He is knowledgeable, friendly and didn’t mind when I stopped to take photos or go into a shop. He is a terrific guide.
