Place visited
Description
Go beyond the Old Quarter and see both sides of Hanoi in a single day. Riding in an open jeep with a professional driver and guide, you start among the city streets before crossing the Red River into the villages and countryside that most visitors never reach.
You explore a local market and see daily rural life, learn about Vietnamese culture and traditions, and visit the Co Loa Ancient Citadel. A Vietnamese lunch at a local restaurant breaks up the day, followed by Huu Tiep Lake with its B52 crash site, other hidden spots, and a relaxed stop for egg coffee by West Lake.
Jeep, driver, guide, lunch, entrance fees, water and Old Quarter pick-up and drop-off are all included. Vietnam Express Tour arranges the full day so you can focus on the experience.
