Booked a tour with John and it was amazing! Very cool guy and we get to see a lot of the Hanoi central and hidden gems. Thanks to the driver too he did an amazing job swirling the traffic.

The tour was fantastic, it felt like a VIP private tour going around the jeep with your own personal guide. Darcy (our guide) was a very good person, very knowledgeable and she was very very generous, she took time to explain everything and very detailed in her explanation. We had a blast of a time.

No, you ride pillion behind a licensed local driver; helmets are provided and compulsory. Self-riding needs an international licence with a motorcycle category, which most travel insurance also requires, so the pillion tour is the safe answer. Wear closed shoes and long trousers.
