What To Expect

Hop on a Vietnam Army Legend Jeep and ride through the hidden maze of backstreets, narrow alleys, and bustling local markets that pulse with the real rhythm of Hanoi. Witness the REAL Hanoi behind the scenes, featuring the good, the bad, and the weird sides of the city, all at close range. Immerse yourself in the Living Museum of Hanoi, where local people live and work. Meet locals in their daily lives, from street vendors to artisans, from families to school students, or discover local markets, temples, playgrounds, and random cafés. This is more than sightseeing: it’s about building genuine connections and experiencing the city with all your senses: touching, watching, hearing, tasting, smelling and feeling the city as it truly is.

A great introduction to Hanoi - by jeep! We loved it!

5.00We really enjoyed this tour around Hanoi in an open-top jeep. Bee, our guide was great! Thanks Bee. The best part of the tour was being driven around the streets, seeing the busy every day lives of those living here. Another highlight was having a coffee at Train Street and our delicious lunch at the Hidden Gem Café and Pub. Thanks everyone!

5.00Fantastic way to explore Hanoi. Our guide Bee was knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming. Will recommend to anyone travelling to Hanoi as we got to see the real culture of Hanoi, not just the popular tourist destinations. The Jeep was a fun way to travel, so much better than a tour bus.
2.5 hour drive around Hanoi including coffee and train street!

5.00A very enjoyable and informative city tour. Hai was a great guide, full of fun and local knowledge. He showed us many of the highlights of Hanoi, while filling-in with history and aspects of local culture. Our driver was competent, safe and very good as negotiating the ‘interesting and unusual’ traffic flow of the city. We finished the tour with an excellent meal at ‘The Hidden Gem Cafe and Bar’. Don’t miss that one, if you can find it in the old quarter. So pleased that we decided to book this tour. Thanks Guys for a great time.
A great 5 hour trip and very educational. Food also fantastic eating in a restaurant you would never find otherwise!
