“Fantastisk!”
Vi har hatt gleden av å bli vist rundt i Hanoi av Rose (Nhung) i flere dager. Hun er meget hyggelig, og en svært kunskapsrik guide. Det et en glede å høre på henne når hun entuiastisk formidler nyere og eldre historie. Hun har også meget gode matkunnskaper da hun også har jobbet som kokk. Vi har hatt mange gode måltider sammen, og hun forteller med stor kunnskap om mattradisjoner i Vietnam. Vi kommer til å huske dagene her med stor glede. Vi kan trykt anbefale henne som guide.
