Important Information
- Small group experience: maximum 6–7 guests per Jeep car. If your group is larger, we will arrange 2–3 Jeeps even 5-10 Jeeps depending on the number of participants.
After booking the tour, please send us your preferred pick-up location. If that location is within the Old Quarter or French Quarter, we can pick you up directly there instead of at the designated meeting point at the Opera House.
Sunset Experience: For evening bookings, we aim to reach the Red River farming at the perfect time for you to enjoy the sunset over the gardens.
A Holistic Overview: Instead of many short, rushed stops, we focus on a slower 4-hour journey to give you a meaningful and comprehensive overview of Hanoi’s diverse landscapes.
Dietary Requests: Please inform us of any food allergies or dietary requirements (e.g., vegetarian) when booking so we can prepare your Bún Chả accordingly.
