Day 1: Hanoi Arrival + Hanoi Walking and Street Food Tours

Arrival Flight: Guest’s own tickets

A warm greeting awaits at Hanoi’s Noi Bai International airport; your private guide and driver will meet you OUTSIDE the arrivals lounge and transfer you (approximately 45 minutes) to your hotel downtown Hanoi.

Please look for your tour guide who holds up your names on a welcome signboard.

While every effort is made to have your room available upon arrival, check-in time is at 02:00 pm; your room may or may not be ready before this time. Your tour guide will provide additional details regarding your stay, and you will be able to ask any questions you may have.

You'll then have plenty of time to recover from your flight, chill out before joining Hanoi street food and walking tour in the late afternoon.

A culinary adventure takes you to taste sampling street food in the Old Quarter. It’s a great opportunity to try all those weird and wonderful foods you see but just aren’t sure what they are! The local brew is a plus point for this short trip. Find an open seat, do as the locals do: pull up a stool and enjoy a drink while watching the world go by at Bia Hoi Corner. Continue to wander in the old quarter’s narrow streets as your guide points out a range of tasty noodles, bread, and snacks. Don't forget to bring a camera to take some beautiful shots of the local nightlife. The pavement in Vietnam is really a street food haven, not only for walking.
