    What a wonderful way to experience Hanoi’s unique past on a leisurely bicycle ride through historical streets. I was traveling with 2 friends, and our guides, Brian and Cong, lead us on a tour of the city while stopping at various points of interest to learn about the city’s rich culture. We visited important landmarks and enjoyed several fun photo opportunities. We pedaled out to the countryside, exploring hidden corners outside the city, enjoying the freedom of traveling on a bicycle. Such a great way to connect more authentically with Hanoi. Loved it!

    Delightful, insightful, a load of fun and TASTY! I cannot thank A Taste of Hanoi more for the fabulous bike ride through the often VERY hidden streets and cafes of Hanoi. My expert guide, Brian, was superb in his descriptions, histories, and insights and was keenly switched-on to the heartbeat of the city. We kept riding, but we kept learning, and we kept sampling terrific treats. QUALITY customer service: I needed to cancel two from my party and A Taste of Hanoi could not have been more understanding and refunded our deposit quickly. Wish my friends could have made the ride! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I will do more tours with this company again when I return to Hanoi. They know their stuff and they treat their customers like friends. Highly, highly recommended!

    Fantastic tour! An exhilarating bike ride through the old quarter and across Long Bien Bridge. Brian is an excellent guide. We felt safe on the bicycles with him in Hanoi traffic, he made sure we had plenty of hydration and snacks. We very much enjoyed tasting local food like the egg coffee and sticky rice ice creams. Brian’s local knowledge and understanding of the colourful history of Hanoi bought the tour to life. A must do tour especially if you only have a short time in Hanoi, you will see and experience so much. Highly recommend.
