Full description

This is a experience in Hanoi. It is run by Crossing Vietnam Tour, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Japan's outdoors is organised: trails are marked, mountain huts are booked, and the walking routes with history, the Nakasendo post road between Magome and Tsumago and the Kumano Kodo pilgrimage in Wakayama, are done in comfortable day stages with luggage forwarded. Cycling tours use the flat river paths and back streets that cars avoid. The summer heat from July to September makes early starts essential in the cities and lowlands, while the mountains are cool. Winter turns Hokkaido and Nagano into ski country from December to March, with the powder that Niseko and Hakuba are known for.

The price covers Hotel pickup and drop-off within the Old Quarter area, Tour guide/driver, Motorbike, High-quality helmet and Temple of Literature entrance fee. It does not cover Other entrance fees and Tips, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Hoàn Kiếm. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Crossing Vietnam Tour before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

We were extremely happy with our motorbike tour. Our guide, Tu and Ryan met us at our hotel. They even allowed us to start a bit later because we were delayed. After a quick briefing of safety precautions we were off on a wonderfully organized and well thought tour of Hanoi old quarter and French quarter. I can assure you that you could never experience a better tour of the city unless you do it by motorbike. We loved the experience and I highly recommend it. The tour can be customized to your personal preferences. Our guides were helpful and very informative.

My tour with Mac was a lovely one. Mac took me around and explained everything so patiently. He was super kind and polite and I had a great time talking to him about Vietnam and other stuff. Would highly recommend this tour if you have time to kill and would like a personalised experience without being in the middle of a huge group. 10/10

We did the tour with Liam and Justin. Both were excellent drivers and guides. The best way to see the city is on the back of a scooter. Both guides were passionate and knowledgeable about their city and took us to some great spots. I felt safe in the traffic at all times. Would definitely recommend.

Our guide Long was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour. He told us a lot about Vietnamese history but also about life in Hanoi. He was a also competent driver, I never felt unsafe. His colleague who I have forgotten the name of but who's first day it was was eager to learn and will soon also become an excellent guide, I am sure. Both Long and his English was impressive. Would definitely recommend the tour!

Great tour, with great English speaking guides. Tung and Ming were great drivers. Would highly recommend. Worth noting that the Mausoleum is closed on Fridays and Mondays, but it is still informative.

This was the best tour I have been on it whilst in Hanoi. Baron, my guide, was brilliant. He was very informative and patient and spoke excellent English. I highly recommend this tour if you want to discover parts of Hanoi that you wouldn't normally see.

The motorcycle city tour was absolutely wonderful. The guide MAC was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so many fascinating stories with genuine enthusiasm, revealing Vietnamese culture and the city from a truly engaging perspective. It is always a pleasure to learn about culture, traditions, and their symbols from someone who sincerely loves their heritage and is passionate about what he do. I especially appreciated that the tour felt more like a friendly conversation than a standard tour: a conversation with someone who truly wants to share what they love with others. Thank you very much fo

Great tour of Hanoi and the motorbikes were a fun and efficient way to get around town. Before booking I was slightly concerned about safety on the motorbikes but as soon as we started I felt comfortable and safe. Our guides Walter and Oliver were very knowledgeable and friendly and went out of their way to help us even after the tour. Great way to spend a day thanks to the excellent guides!
