Hanoi tour with Thuy.

I had the opportunity to spent the day with my guide Thuy and I had a the best time ever. She showed me all the places we had taken about and took great care of me after I told you I had some vertigo. She was always very attentive in addition of the great knowledge she has of Hanoi. Thank you for a great day.

Thank you so much for your kind words. It was truly a pleasure spending the day with you. I’m very glad you enjoyed exploring Hanoi and that I could help make the trip comfortable despite the vertigo. I wish you always healthy, keep young and happiness. Hope to see you again for another great adventure in Vietnam. Thank you again Maria.

Awesome day trip of Hanoi with Thuy

It was an awesome experience to see Hanoi under the guidance of Thuy. Naturally, as this was essentially my first day in Southeast Asia, I had great trepidation navigating the bustling city of Hanoi. Thuy was particularly helpful with this process. Starting with the prompt arrival with her driver, her kindness & attentiveness, as well as flexibility to change the schedule on a whim. Her knowledge of the history of the region is nonpareil. For English speakers, her command of the language is admirable and quite clear. I would highly recommend her.

Dear Gerald, Thank you so much for your wonderful and heartfelt review. I truly appreciate your kind words. It was an absolute pleasure to accompany you on your first day in Southeast Asia and to help you navigate the vibrant energy of Hanoi. I’m so glad to hear that you felt comfortable and supported throughout the experience. I sincerely hope the rest of your journey in Southeast Asia is filled with amazing memories. It would be my pleasure to welcome you back to Hanoi anytime in the future. Warmest regards, Thuy T
