Tour Itinerary
Start Time Options: 08:00 or 13:00
Your journey begins with a warm greeting from your driver, who will pick you up directly at your hotel in the Old Quarter. After a quick transfer to a local bike shop, you’ll select a comfortable bicycle and meet your guide — your storyteller and companion for the day.
Long Bien Bridge – A Morning Above the River
Your first ride leads you to the historic Long Bien Bridge, designed over 120 years ago and still standing as a symbol of Hanoi’s resilience. Take in the morning breeze, admire the vast Red River below, and listen as your guide shares remarkable stories from both wartime and modern life.
West Lake & Hữu Tiệp Lake – Tranquility & History
From here, you cycle toward Hanoi’s largest freshwater lake — West Lake. The path winds along peaceful shores, lotus ponds, and hidden temple courtyards. Nearby, you’ll reach Hữu Tiệp Lake in Ngọc Hà Village, home to the remaining wreckage of a B-52 shot down in 1972. It’s a quiet yet powerful reminder of the city’s past.
Local Tea Break – A Taste of Hanoi Life
In a charming neighborhood, you stop at a humble roadside tea stall. Sipping strong Vietnamese green tea while chatting with locals offers an authentic glimpse into the city’s daily rhythm — simple, warm, and incredibly memorable.
Cycling Through Hanoi’s Historic Heart
Back on your bike, your route weaves through the city’s most iconic areas:
Hanoi Flag Tower
Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum & Ba Dinh Square
Presidential Palace
Tran Quoc Pagoda
Trúc Bạch Lake
At every stop, your guide brings the stories to life — from ancient legend to modern-day culture.
Reunification Train Track – Everyday Life, Inches From the Rails
Your final major stop is the remarkable Reunification Train Track. Here, homes, cafés, and daily routines all unfold just centimeters from the railway line. It’s a surreal space where modern trains and local life coexist in a uniquely Hanoi way.
After returning your bike, your guide will escort you back to your hotel. The tour concludes, but the memories of your morning ride through Hanoi’s hidden gems will stay with you long after.

The best time to visit Vietnam depends on the regions you plan to explore and the experiences you’re looking for.

Central Vietnam (Hue, Da Nang, Hoi An): The best time to visit is February to August, with warm, sunny days ideal for beach trips and cultural exploration. Southern Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City, Mekong Delta, Phu Quoc): The most comfortable period is December to April, during the dry season with plenty of sunshine.
