As we start our trip from the meeting point, our expert guide will offer essential tips on how to navigate Hanoi's lively traffic, ensuring you feel confident and safe throughout the tour. This orientation is crucial as we embark on our adventure through the city’s most iconic sites.

After getting all essential instructions, we begin our adventure with a ride through Hanoi’s lively streets towards the iconic Long Bien Bridge, where we'll pause for some memorable photos. Leaving the city noise behind, we venture into the peaceful countryside. Ride along the dike through charming local villages, passing traditional houses, pagodas, temples, bustling local markets, and beautiful rice paddies and vegetable farms.

Next, we will visit Ngoc Thuy Market, which is a local hub where residents shop for fresh produce, meats, seafood, and household goods. The market provides a lively and authentic glimpse into local life, with vendors selling a variety of items, including fresh herbs, spices, clothing, and street food. It is a great opportunity to explore Vietnamese culture, especially if you're interested in experiencing everyday commerce in Hanoi and trying some local snacks.

As we head towards Co Loa Citadel, enjoy the serene beauty of Hanoi’s lush rice paddies and terraced fields. We’ll take a short break at a local village bar for refreshments before reaching the highlight of the day, Co Loa Citadel. Founded in the 3rd century BC, this ancient site was once the capital of Vietnam. Discover its impressive walls, gates, An Duong Vuong Temple, and Trong Thuy Prince's Well, all steeped in local legends and history. Surrounded by picturesque countryside, the citadel is perfect for exploration and photography. Engage with local villagers and experience their traditional way of life.
