After getting a safety briefing and feeling comfortable with your bike, we'll begin our ride. Our Hanoi city bicycle tour starts with a visit to Long Bien Bridge, a symbol of the strength and resilience of the Hanoian people. This iconic bridge, built by the famous Eiffel Construction Company in 1902, offers a stunning panoramic view of the Red River below. Next, we'll ride through Red River Island, passing peaceful banana and corn farms that are hidden away from the busy streets where local farmers grow an array of fruits and vegetables. Despite its central location, this farming island is often overlooked by travelers, making it a hidden gem to discover on our Bike Tours Hanoi.

The experience of a bicycle trip in Hanoi couldn’t be better. Our guide and her team of scooter guideners were very friendly and helpful, they showed us some wonderful highlights. We attended with a family of 4 (two teens of 17 and 11). We’re from the Netherlands and experienced cyclers. In the traffic chaos you need to be very attentive, but with help of guides who lead you it is also a lot of fun!! I would definitely recommend this tour.

Very nice guides who speak good English and tell a lot. It felt very safe because of the people who rode along on scooters and stopped traffic. Highly recommended to experience Hanoi!

With Summi and her men had a great morning. On a scooter through the city, cycling past beautiful locations, seeing “the train” pass by in a less touristy place and ending with fine local lunch. Highly recommended.

Had a great bike ride with Brian. Were picked up with scooters to the bikes. While cycling there were 2 more scooters to guide everything smoothly through the hectic traffic. Not a moment unsafely filled, really top. Also got extra sweets when one of us didn't get well. We highly recommend this to really experience Hanoi!!

This is a very good tour- Brian and Lee picked us up at our Hotel on their scooters and the first stop was for Lunch at a very local restaurant. Then we proceeded to the bike shop for the Tour to commence. Pleasant and quite an easy ride through Banana island and then into Hanoi. Brian did a great job with leading the tour and Lee was a great chaperone on his bike through the busy streets of Hanoi. Highly recommend this.

Good experience, very friendly guides. I did the tour with my friend, there was one guide who also went by bike and two "bodyguards" on the scooter to guide us through the heavy traffic. Very nice tour with good stops.

We were picked up at our hotel to be taken by scooter to the meeting point. A nice team was waiting for us. We have seen many special places of Hanoi: including train street, banana island and Hanoi's oldest bridge. The team is very helpful; it is very nice that while cycling in busy Hanoi you are accompanied and protected by the team's scooters. Afterwards we went for lunch. All in all a great day.
