Great way to get around West Lake
We did a West Lake tour and were thrilled to get out and around the lake, feel a breeze on our faces and see a few different areas and sights around the lake. The team were really responsive and informative before the tour, especially as the route had to be adjusted because of the recent typhoon. Our guide was clear and we felt safe navigating the roads around the lake and enjoyed the stops for coffee and chat!
Operator response
Thank you so much Ms Rose for the feedback, we hope to see you back in the near future and join other cycling tours in other provinces. Have a great day.

Great experience!
The West Lake tour in Hanoi is an excellent choice for individuals like myself who are on the path to recovery from running-related injuries but still seek exercise and enjoyment. The electric bikes provide a comfortable and leisurely ride, allowing you to soak in the scenery and cultural without putting undue strain on your body. Additionally, the owner of the tour is incredibly kind and supportive, making the experience even more delightful.
Operator response

Outstanding
Outstanding service! E-bikes were delivered to our hotel and picked up when we had finished with them. Friendly professional service and extremely good English for people struggling with the language barrier. Highly recommended and would definitely use this service again - absolutely made our trip biking in and amongst the hustle and bustle of Hanoi! Thanks again

Pleasant West Lake ride
The ebikes were really good quality and kept in great working order with quality helmets supplied. Staff were very helpful and spoke English really well. The ride was easy and it was nice to see a different side of the city. There were only a few things of interest to see along the way, so its more about enjoying the scenery than getting a history lesson. You do ride along some busy roads amongst the traffic at times, this would be terrifying if you had children with you. The guide is leading the pack whilst concentrating on navigating the traffic herself and could easily be unaware of any losses in her group behind her. A safer option may be to have two guides, one at the front and one following at the rear. Traffic conditions vary depending on the time of day, ie; AM tour starting at 9 would have missed peak hour traffic, but PM tour means your riding during the busiest time of day. Making our own Lotus tea was a special touch. LiLi was lovely.

Pleasant ride around the lake with a very nice guide
Pleasant ride, there was some air around the lake that made for a nice change from the sweltering heat in the city center.
The bike ride is very easy, you hardly need to pedal
Hien Nguyen was a very informative guide, sharing insights about Vietnamese culture and society in a perfect English.
Overall nothing life changing but a very pleasant and interesting morning

Easy E-Cycling
We had one last day in Hanoi before flying home and had done enough of the Old Quarter and shopping. We caught a taxi to the Bike Shop (right on West Lake) and were pleasantly surprised with the professionalism of the Electric Smiles E-Bike. We were given instruction and a test drive before setting off on our own. It was easy to navigate the Lake - we just kept following it around. We stopped a few times - photos, beers, lunch and had a very pleasant half day out. I would highly recommend the service. On our return the young woman organised a cab (with discount) to take us back to the Old Quarter and gave us a recommendation for Dinner (again with a discount voucher) - the dinner was lovely.

Great cycling around West Lake
Rented the e-bike for just a day. Love how it works. I feel like I am walking on the sky not riding the bikes anymore. I put my bike to the power mode and it was super crazy. The best thing I have ever done .Spend my entire day around WestLake. Thanks Electric Smiles and their team.

West Lake tour was great!
The ebike tour was great -- an interesting way to tour around Tay Ho/West Lake. Riding the ebike was easy to get used to and the guides were so helpful in taking/returning the bikes and helmets at each stop. Felt completely guided and supported. Coffee/tea and fruit to start the tour even. Would recommend this tour!
