Duo Thoy was a wonderful, enthusiastic tour guide and so full of knowledge. She really wanted to ensure we had the best tour within the time we had as we were picked up from the cruise port for the day. Thankfully it was a Sunday so the trip to Hanoi was just over 2 hours each way. Highly recommended !
Being an American visiting a shot down b52 was not a pleasant experience and not necessary Keeping it all these years in a small water area in a village harbors bad feelings both sides
This was our first stop on a cruise and we were unsure what to expect. The tour company did a fantastic job with communicating and coordinating. Our guide was very informative and interesting and had a great sense of humour. We would strongly recommend!
Nam was so very knowledgeable and flexible. We enjoyed ourselves immensely and found Hanoi so very interesting.
