    Hanoi at a Glance Tour (8 Hours)

    Despite the rain, Ruby made the best of our tour around Hanoi. She was excellent at reading the mood of our group and offered up options that made the tour fun and informative. Highly recommend!

    Hanoi at a Glance Tour (8 Hours)

    We had a very enjoyable afternoon with Ruby. She was accommodating and engaging, especially with our 6yo and 7yo. We enjoyed Train Street from a fantastic location, tasted delicious drinks and desserts, walked many different streets in the Old Town that we'd never have found on our own, learned of the local history and culture. Ruby took great photos of our family too. Highly recommended

    Ruby was a fantastic guide. Her English is excellent and she took me to a very local market, I was the only traveller there and it felt like a very authentic experience. She was full of information about living in Hanoi.

    We thank Ruby for the wonderful walk through her City. It was very amazing to see Hanoi not only from the tourist side. Thank you for showing us places, we would have never seen without her! We’ve loved it!🫶

    Ruby was a great guide. She adjusted the itinerary to meet all of our needs and showed us many things we would never have discovered on our own. I highly recommend her to other visitors.
