Itinerary
At the meeting point at the Hanoi Opera House, you will be welcomed by our female drivers and guides, dressed in their signature green áo dài. They will introduce the tour itinerary, share important notes, and provide a brief safety and travel briefing before the experience begins.
Ride across the iconic Long Bien Bridge, the oldest bridge in Hanoi and a historic landmark from the French colonial era. Together with your Green Sisters female riders, enjoy scenic views over the Red River and explore one of the city’s most authentic and less touristy areas. Along the way, your female rider shares local stories and insights, offering a deeper connection to Hanoi’s history, culture, and everyday life beyond the Old Quarter.
From Long Bien Bridge, descend to Banana Island along the Red River, a hidden green oasis in the heart of Hanoi. Together with your Green Sisters female riders, explore this peaceful riverside area, visit a local family home, and experience the authentic farming lifestyle of the outskirts. Enjoy traditional tea, “happy water,” and seasonal fruits while connecting with local residents and gaining insight into their daily life beyond the busy city.
Explore Hanoi’s Old Quarter and its vibrant streets with your Green Sisters female riders. Pass by iconic landmarks such as St. Joseph’s Cathedral and the Imperial Citadel, then dive deeper into the maze of narrow alleys, hidden corners, and local markets. Experience the energy of Hanoi’s famously “crazy” traffic from a safe and authentic perspective, while discovering everyday local life, street scenes, and the unique rhythm of the city.
Stop along Thanh Nien Street, one of the most scenic roads in Hanoi, offering a romantic view between West Lake and Truc Bach Lake. With your Green Sisters female riders, take in the peaceful atmosphere while hearing the historical story of John McCain nearby. Then visit Tran Quoc Pagoda, one of the most sacred and oldest temples in Hanoi, located on a small island in the middle of West Lake, where you can experience a sense of calm and spiritual beauty.
Explore Hanoi’s French Quarter, where elegant colonial architecture reflects the city’s rich history. Ride with your Green Sisters female riders past grand French-era buildings, the embassy district, and key political landmarks of Vietnam. Along the way, you will also pass by the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, one of the most significant and symbolic sites in the country.
Visit Hanoi’s famous Train Street, where daily life unfolds just inches from the railway tracks. Sit down at a local café to enjoy a traditional egg coffee or a cold Vietnamese beer while waiting for the train to pass by—an unforgettable and uniquely Hanoi experience.
Return to the Old Quarter to enjoy one of Hanoi’s most iconic dishes – Bun Cha. Sit down at a local restaurant and savor this traditional meal of grilled pork, rice noodles, fresh herbs, and dipping sauce, offering a true taste of Hanoi’s authentic cuisine.

The tour was great! Our tour guide was excellent and she described the different sights very good. The driving was very good too and i would highly recommend it!
Amazing experience! I was with a group of all female friends, and we absolutely loved having an all female group of drivers. They were all SO friendly and funny, and we loved getting to know them. This was such an amazing way to see the city and try a delicious assortment of Vietnamese food. Would 100% do this again!!!
Incredible experience! The tour guides are so fun, friendly, and knowledgeable. I was apprehensive about the bikes, but they are safe drivers. It was a pleasure to tour with them! The food was incredible, and we went to great local spots that didn’t feel too touristy. Would completely recommend, especially for a group of women looking for safe fun!
AMAZING!!! The riders are darling. The food is incredible. Getting to go a bit out of the city to see the banana farm was such a treat and an experience that you can’t get anywhere else! The train street coffee was incredibly fun as well. As Americans we were a bit nervous about being on bikes but the girls are super safe and careful drivers. HIGHLY recommend!
THE BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!! The food is so good AND the drivers are so sweet and wonderful!
Hello Jay, Thank you for such an amazing day! Touring with you and the Girl Bike Sisters was an unforgettable experience, educational, informative, safe, and incredibly fun on the back of a Vespa. The tour included delicious food and drinks, a visit to Train Street, as well as stops at the Pagoda, St Joseph’s Cathedral, and more highlights around the city. Everything was well organised and enjoyable from start to finish. Highly recommended! 👌👍
Wow! What a great experience. Wonderful guides Jay and Mai took us to the country to see a very different life to busy Hanoi. Excellent English, really friendly and very patient! Would recommend this to see Vietnam away from city centre then topped off with traditional lunch back in Old Quarter. Enjoy!
Awesome ride and great experience. It was just the best thing to do given I had a short time in Hanoi. My guide was great fun and really considerate. Would highly recommend.
This was the best thing we ever did! Our guides Merits and Hadae were so funny, taught us so much and were such safe drivers! You need to do this! 10/10
