1 day Hanoi Explorer

Join us to explore the heart and soul of Hanoi, where you'll discover fascinating stories of Ho Chi Minh, visit the Temple of Literature and Vietnam's first University, head to the Museum of Ethnology. Wander through the maze of alleys in the Old Quarter and admire the French Quarter.

After breakfast, we visit the final resting place of Ho Chi Minh, the imposing mausoleum erected in his honor. Stroll around the Presidential Palace, Ho Chi Minh's living quarters, and the iconic One Pillar Pagoda. Then, we explore the serene Temple of Literature and Vietnam's first University.

For lunch, we eat in a traditional Vietnamese meal at one of Hanoi's finest restaurants. Don't miss the chance to try "cà phê trứng," or egg coffee, a Hanoi specialty made with creamy soft egg, condensed milk, coffee powder, and a family secret.

In the afternoon, we visit the Museum of Ethnology, a colorful and comprehensive museum dedicated to Vietnam’s more than 50 ethnic minority groups. Explore its beautiful indoor and outdoor exhibits to learn about Vietnam's diverse heritage.

Next, we wander through the vibrant streets of Hanoi's Old Quarter, passing by guilded streets and visiting the fascinating Dong Xuan market, where vendors sell everything from jeans to raw fish. We admire the city's French-colonial architecture as we stroll past French colonial houses before our final stop at Ngoc Son Temple on the tiny island of Hoan Kiem Lake, surrounded by lush trees and ancient Buddhist temples.

Conclude our day with an incredible water puppet show, a traditional Vietnamese entertainment that originated in rice fields centuries ago. Enjoy the show alongside traditional Vietnamese music played on drums, wooden bells, horns, and bamboo flutes—a perfect way to end this Hanoi sightseeing tour. (Lunch is included)
