“Biking With Nathan! ”
Thank you very much Nathan, it gives me a warm feeling to have someone like you guide us with all the happiness, showing us things we would easily walk across without realizing these things. I went on a great tour with him, with two others from another organization. Everything combined we biked for like 3 to 4 hours I think.

“Something different”
Nathan was our guide and it was such a good way to see Hanoi. Hanoi is flat so the bike riding is not too strenuous. Negotiating the traffic was exciting but we also when outside the city center to the countryside. Bikes were well-maintained with pumped-up tyres and good brakes (which are definitely needed). Thoroughly recommend.

“Great Cycling Adventure in Hanoi”
Our guide Minh took four of us on a wonderful adventure through the streets and riverside area of Hanoi. Often the streets were a bit crazy with traffic but we always felt relatively safe and mew that Minh was looking out for us. Well worth doing ti experience Hanoi. We got to see Banana Island, B52 lake, train st with a train and the old railroad bridge. We went on a Friday morning. The bikes weren’t perfect but totally ok for a flat ride, basic gears and brakes that work. Thank you Minh

“Amazing from start to finish ”
We had the most unforgettable day touring Hanoi with Tee, who took us to some of the city’s hidden gems despite the absolute downpour of rain. From the moment we started, Tee’s enthusiasm and knowledge made the weather seem like just a part of the adventure. He shared an incredible amount of historical information, and it was clear how passionate he is about Hanoi’s rich culture and heritage. One of the highlights was our visit to banana Island. Tee’s storytelling made us feel like we were experiencing it from afar. He had a way of bringing history to life, making every spot we visited more meaningful. The places Tee brought us to were not the usual tourist stops; they felt special, like discovering a side of Hanoi that most people miss. Despite the rain, we left the tour having learned so much and feeling truly connected to the city. Tee was a pleasure to be around, and his energy and positive attitude turned what could have been a dreary day into a truly memorable experience. We highly recommend this tour—especially with Tee as your guide!
