Baez and other guests were crammed into small, sweltering bomb shelters underneath the back courtyard where they remained throughout the duration of the raid.

Private walking tour with Son

Published on Jan, 2025

Our guide, Son, was excellent! He took us to places we otherwise would not have thought of going. It was nice to see Hanoi from a local’s perspective. He was also very flexible and accommodating. Highly recommended!

Perfect start to the trip!

Published on Nov, 2024

I decided to take a couple of food tours as soon as I got to Hanoi to better get my bearings on the city. I am so glad I did this. The city can be overwhelming at first and a food tour with a guide really helps to 'break the ice' and get you walking around the city. Bryan was our guide. We went to so many places. And not touristy places. Which I loved! I am a huge foodie and have had many food tours in other countries. None of them compare to Bryan's. Bryan took us to several places one would never find if new to the city. He told us the story behind each stop and in between eats he taught us some history of Vietnam. He stopped at several places I would have just walked by and never tried. At each stop I learned something new. And that was the goal - to learn more about the food and culture in Vietnam starting in Hanoi. I am so grateful I had the opportunity to spend two days with Bryan. It was time well spent and worth every single penny. Next time I'm in Hanoi I'm scheduling another tour. So much to see! And taste! Thanks for two great days!

Great Trip!

Excellent coordination and very interesting event. 100% enjoyment!! We did 2 tours (Hidden Hanoi and Foodie Bike Tour)

Great introduction to Vietnam

Published on Apr, 2024

We did the Hidden Gems and Highlights three hour tour and a day trip to Ninh Binh with our guide Mr Vu. Our first time in Vietnam and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Really informative and a good sense of history and humour! Would highly recommend this company.

Fascinating walk through historic downtown Hanoi

Published on Mar, 2023

As the name implies, they take you through a lot of interesting hidden places in downtown Hanoi. The city itself has a long rich history, and this is a great way to learn about some of it. I was surprised by how much there was to see and learn, and how bustling or quiet some of the hidden nooks were. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and spoke great English, there were also a few great spots to take pictures. Highly recommend.
