Hanoi Discovery

Welcome to Hanoi, Vietnam’s charming capital where centuries-old traditions blend seamlessly with modern life. Upon arrival at Noi Bai International Airport, your private driver will greet you and transfer you to your selected accommodation. After checking in, the rest of the day is yours to enjoy. You might choose to take a gentle stroll around Hoan Kiem Lake, explore the maze of streets in the Old Quarter, or unwind at a café with views of Hanoi’s vibrant street life as you ease into your journey.

Begin your day with a deeper dive into Hanoi’s rich cultural tapestry. Consider visiting the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum Complex, including the Presidential Palace, Uncle Ho’s stilt house, and the One Pillar Pagoda, a symbol of the city. For spiritual insights, head to Quan Thanh Temple or the elegant Temple of Literature, Vietnam’s first university. If you prefer something more relaxed, enjoy a cyclo ride through the Old Quarter’s narrow lanes or join a guided city tour for local insights. In the evening, consider watching a water puppet show, a traditional Vietnamese art form that brings folklore to life through music and puppetry on water.

Today is yours to tailor. If you're seeking nature and grandeur, take a full-day excursion to Ha Long Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its emerald waters and limestone karsts. Cruise aboard a traditional wooden junk and enjoy lunch as you sail past surreal seascapes. Prefer to stay local? Choose a Vietnamese cooking class and learn to make authentic dishes, or join a guided street food tour through Hanoi’s buzzing night markets. Alternatively, explore independently—visit the Fine Arts Museum, shop at Dong Xuan Market, or sip egg coffee at a rooftop café overlooking the Red River.

After breakfast, check out of your hotel and meet your private driver for a comfortable transfer to the airport. Depart with unforgettable memories of Hanoi’s layered history, captivating culture, and warm hospitality.
