Our hanoi half day tour was very interesting and I had a very informative time. Our guide, Mr.Luan, was very friendly and helpful, very good attitude. I was very happy to be here in beautiful Vietnam.
Just the two of us made it even more enjoyable. Mr. Phuc (Lee?) was excellent, knowledgeable, interesting, always ready to answer questions, and moved at a nice pace. A lovely lunch was provided. (Like to mention Jenny who stood in at the last minute for the airport pick up, was superbly helpful and amusing).
