Tour program:

Our tour guide and driver will pick you up at your hotel in Hanoi at 08:00 and start the city tour. We will begin our day by visiting Uncle Ho, learning about his great life at the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, Presidential Palace, and his residential place, his house on stilt and one pillar pagoda nearby. Next stop is the nearby Temple of Literature - the site of Vietnam's first University, built in 11th century, to teach Confucius’s theory to royals. Here we will also have a chance to see a traditional music performance. Lunch will be served at a local restaurant for a taste of authentic Hanoi Pho (rice noodle soup). In the afternoon, choose one from the numerous museums or temples around Hanoi (Museum of Ethnology, History Museum or Fine Art museum).

In the late afternoon, we take a cyclo trip around Hoan Kiem Lake and Hanoi's fascinating Old Quarter for some great fun, see street side traditional food and local life. This is your chance to be part of typical Hanoian style and its traditional Vietnamese culture. We finish our relaxing but informative day by attending a Vietnamese Traditional Water Puppet Show, a favorite experience for all visitors to Vietnam. We can help you to get back to your hotel if you wish, but often our guests would rather just spend the evening enjoying a drink with a view of the city.
