Full description

This is a 3-hour experience in Hanoi. It is run by Vietnam Vision Travel, 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.

A private day with a driver-guide is the way to see the most of a Japanese city or region in one day, because it removes the transfers between sights that eat a third of the day on public transport. Prices are usually per vehicle for up to a set number of guests rather than per person, and cover the car, fuel, tolls and the guide; entrance fees and lunch are paid as you go unless the listing says otherwise. Japanese guides are licensed for the work and typically punctual to the minute. Give the operator your priorities, and expect them to reorder the day around opening hours and crowds; that is what you are paying for.

The price covers Hotel pickup and drop-off in Hanoi Old Quarter, and knowledgeable local guide, English - Speaking tour guide, Choice of walking and At least 8 authentic local food tastings. It does not cover Tips to the tour guide and driver, Additional food or drinks outside the tour program and Surcharge for other languages, 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.
