Fantastic experience, great to see the area with a very experienced guide. Jenna and driver Luyen were excellent. The trip covered so much, it was brilliant. Thanks Jenna and Luyen x
Hai was our guide for the day and we enjoyed his company. He was full of knowledge about the Hanoi history and culture. He also had funny and interesting stories to share with us. It was fun driving around in an old USA army jeep. I would recommend this tour when you visit.

We had the BEST morning exploring Hanoi city centre and seeing all the main sights from the most fun open air Jeep! Even though it was raining, the Jeep had a cover, so it actually turned out to be a fantastic way to experience the city. We could see the sights, smell and hear the city, watch local life going on around us and take everything in without constantly having to get in and out or worry about getting soaked. The Jeep itself was such a novelty and made the whole experience even more memorable. Our tour guide, **Danni**, was absolutely fantastic and honestly couldn’t have been better. We were travelling with our teenagers and they absolutely adored the trip, which I think was largely down to him. He was fun, easy-going, communicative and informative without ever making the tour feel like a history lesson! He made us laugh throughout and was just such lovely company. We enjoyed it so much that when we returned to Hanoi, we booked another tour with them, this time heading out into the countryside just outside the city. We travelled through the farms, saw a completely different side of Hanoi and even had a go at making our own pottery. Again, Danni made everything incredibly easy and relaxed. The kids were completely comfortable with him, and he was really flexible, even giving us different options for where we could eat. We genuinely couldn’t fault either tour. The combination of Danni, the open air Jeep and the experiences themselves made them really special. If they had offered more trips, we honestly would have booked those too! Our final stop ended with an absolutely fabulous meal in a wonderful restaurant, which was the perfect finish. **One of the highlights of our time in Vietnam and something I would 100% recommend, particularly to families travelling with teenagers. And if you can request Danni as your guide, definitely do

What a wonderful day exploring Hanoi with Tuna & Mr Louise from Hanoi Jeep Tours! From start to finish, the experience was fantastic. We explored so much of Hanoi and learned an incredible amount along the way. Their wealth of experience and knowledge was amazing, and they shared it all with such genuine kindness and enthusiasm. We loved discovering the city beyond the usual tourist spots, enjoying a lovely local café and stopping to sample some delicious local Vietnamese beer along the way. These little experiences made the day feel so authentic and memorable. We really appreciated the personal touches, fascinating stories, local insights and the warm hospitality they shared with us. A truly memorable day and one of the highlights of our time in Hanoi. Thank you Tuna & Mr Louise for such a special experience! ❤️🇻🇳🍻 We would highly recommend Hanoi Jeep Tours to anyone wanting to see Hanoi, learn about its culture and experience the city like a local.

Our tour guide Tuna and driver Louis were amazing. Driving us through the backstreets of Hanoi and to some famous tours spots like train street, this definitely was an adventure. Lunch was so good at The Hidden Gem Cafe where I got to try my first egg coffee, yum. Definitely would recommend this tour. Thank you to Tuna and Louis for making this a memorable day.
