Meeting Point

At your hotel
I will pick you up at your hotel to start our wonderful ultimate Hanoi city tour.
Ho Chi Minh mausoleum
Ho Chi Minh‘s Mausoleum has long been considered as the first place to come for the first time travelers to Hanoi thanks to its tremendous historical value. Everyone wants to make a pilgrimage there to show their respect for Ho Chi Minh (Uncle Ho President Ho), the Greatest President, who led Vietnam to Independence
Tran Quoc Pagoda
Tran Quoc Pagoda, the Pagoda of National Defence, is one of top sightseeing attractions in Hanoi for those who are fascinated by history, local legend and the Buddhist faith.
The most outstanding feature of Tran Quoc Pagoda is its architecture following strictly the Buddhist architectural philosophy with many layers of buildings and three main houses.
Temple of Literature
Temple of Literature or Văn Miếu is a temple dedicated to Confucius in Hanoi, northern Vietnam. The temple also hosts the Imperial Academy, Vietnam's first national university.
Fabulous street food tour in the Old Quarter
We will try the the most delicious local specialties by street styles. My ideas for us are: Obama's noodles, Vietnamese Banhmi, egg coffee, green sticky rice with ice-cream and more upon your special request/food restrictions.
Hoa Lo Prison
Nothing prepares you for how creepy Hoa Lo Prison in Hanoi, Vietnam can be. A visit to the "Hanoi Hilton" can inspire sorrow, disgust, and, depending on your politics, different flavors of outrage.
Train street
This is really a "Woa" experience if we sit in a cafe - try an unique local coffee and witness the train passing by so closely to you.
Unlock the secrets of Hanoi Old Quarter
We will do the walking tour in the Old Quarter to discover the hidden gems of the Old town through local market, architecture, hidden alleys and tiny houses.

“An enlightening introduction to Hanoi and northern Vietnam”
Nhung / Rose was an excellent guide for this first-timer in Vietnam. I booked a private tour so that I could ease myself into how Vietnamese people live and go about their day (including how to cross the road!). She was happy to accommodate my desire to walk between most attractions rather than any wheeled form of transport, except where it was a bit too far. Communication with her before and during the tour was easy. She was flexible in terms of the starting time (I wanted to start at 8am so I could have breakfast like a local rather than have what my hotel offered), where we went, where we stopped, and with ad-hoc stops for street food and lots of Vietnamese coffee (for my benefit, not just hers!). Many of the food places we went were very local, yet rated well too (e.g some featured in the Michelin guide, never mind just having good Google reviews). This meant it was both delicious and amazing value. I'd say it was amongst the best food I had the entire time I was in Vietnam. We hit key attractions like Train Street (there's actually more than one), Hoan Kiem Lake, Ho Chi Minh Museum, Temple of Literature, Maison Centrale. She would ask me to gauge what attractions would interest me before we proceeded to the next attraction. She knew her history in relation these attractions and Vietnam more generally. But she also offered insights on contemporary Vietnamese life and society as well - the good and bad. She also adapted to disruptions like events and temporary road and place closures quickly so I wouldn't miss out too much. If you want an insightful, personalised all-day tour of Hanoi, I would definitely recommend booking with Nhung.

“Go with Nhung aka Rose, you won't regret!”
We had booked a privately arranged trip with Nhung aka Rose and we had an awesome time! We were travelling with our 83yr old Mother who had some mobility issues and she planned our tour accordingly. Rose had a great understanding and knowledge of her culture and history plus her communication in English was excellent. Rose took care of us very well, especially my Mother, and her food choices were remarkable. Only regret is we didn't stay longer in Hanoi to continue touring with Rose.
