A fun way to be introduced to the crazy traffic in Hanoi. We saw some good sights. Water puppet show was excellent.

I wasn't at all sure about the cyclo ride, as traffic in Hanoi is terrifying and I felt sure we would get killed by a vehicle. However, it is actually fun and relaxing. The drivers knew how to safely navigate traffic, and you can see more going at the slow pace of a cyclo than speeding by in a taxi. We got a really nice view of the city. The water puppet theater is nice, but the lesser feature of this tour for me. As a cultural activity it's great, with authentic costumes, music and performance. It's hard to follow the storyline since it's all in Vietnamese, and my teenage son quickly got bored. And, yes, you can certainly arrange tickets and transportation for these activities on your own. But being newcomers to the country and unfamiliar with the city or the selection of things to do, we appreciated having it packaged up for us, along with hotel pickup. Definitely worth doing!
