Best City bike tour I’ve done.

Excellent bike tour. Within 20 minutes of cycling we were out of the city and cycling around beautiful countryside. Cycling within the craziness of Hanoi also felt very safe as the tour provides ‘outriders’ on scooters to protect and shield us from the traffic. All the team were very helpful and Brian was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the area and Vietnam as a whole. Would thoroughly recommend this bike tour.

Discovery

An amazing experience, well planned and implemented with great support from the guide and their crew. Some key destinations were visited, including "train" street but what left the greatest impression, was visiting the bonsai tree artist.

Brian was great touring us around 10/10

It was a lot of fun getting around town and countryside on the bicycle. Brian and other guy who assisted with traffic and keeping us safe while crossing was great. Brian was knowledgeable about the sites as we asked questions. 10/10. English was great too! Great to see outside of the busy spots of the city and be able to see locals, from broom making, to a bonsai hobbyist and crossing the river on a boat with the bikes. The food stops and breaks were great. We had Pho and coffee. We stopped at the train street with great timing and enjoyed a coffee as it passed by. Overall a great way to see Ha Noi.

Awesome ride around Hanoi and outskirts

We love to bike, so we were searching for a tour that wasn’t just a superficial pedal around the block. This was awesome, a great way to see the outskirts and rural area around Hanoi, plus some of the city sights. Loved the combination of peaceful rural rice fields and back alleys versus the hectic city roads and chaos of Hanoi. We booked a group tour but turned out to be just the two of us so it felt like a private tour. Brian was our fun guide on the bike, and Lee and another man (who’s name I did not get) our soigneurs on the scooter always nearby with replacement water, tools and extra rear protection while crossing those big intersections. Brian was an informative and knowledgeable guide at our many stops, and him and Lee had good banter, kept us safe, and overall was just fun to be cruising around Hanoi with. Highly recommended. Thanks guys.

Great for solo travelers

This was such a great experience as a solo traveler exploring Hanoi. Dung (doo-ng) was a great guide and provided a lot of knowledge about the French Quarter and the countryside. This was a great daytime activity to enjoy the outdoors and get some excercise. The bikes used were great and they provided helmets for safety.

Best way to see Vietnam as locals experience life

Amazing tour! Would highly recommend. Traveling by bike allows you to tour the alleys that a bus wouldn’t let you see - you can experience the true side of Vietnam 👍

Half day countryside bike tour & Afternoon scooter city tour

Very nice bicycle tour. We did the half day in the country side and other half of the day in city on a scooter. We got to see vaste rice fields and visited the king and princess temple. In the city, we got to see the big west lake and the B-52 crash site pond. We also visited the war museum. It was a very hot sunny day, but we stayed hydrated with the free unlimited water given by the tour guide. We also got the chance to taste a variety of local Vietnamese dishes, which were all very tasty. The biking was fairly easy very flat terrain route and the ride was very safe with the guidance and security from the guides through the busier roads. Our tour guide, Dat, was really nice. He has a very good english and explained very well the history of the attractions we visited. I am writing this from the famous train street as we wait for the train to pass. Overall, it was a very nice day tour and I would definitely recommend any visitor to try it out, if you want a more personal and cultural visit of the city.

Such a wonderful adventurous day!

One of the best experiences i’ve ever tried. Highly recommend it. My tour guide Perry was super friendly, he shared a lot of interest cultural and historical info. You’ll get to see a different side of Hanoi. From rice fields to having green tea with a Vietnamese family. Lunch the Vietnamese way, and ending it at the train street.
