Tour Reviews
Did the tour with Chloe who is a cute and sincere guide. Not only did I visit the various spots in the old quarters and discover their stories, but I also got to learn about the lives and thoughts of the locals through some genuine conversations. I go on 20+ tours every year and a lot of times it’s not only the itinerary but also the guide and quality conversation that make it a memorable experience. I certainly recommend this to all kinds of travelers in Hanoi.
