We took this walking tour during our honeymoon, and it turned out to be one of the most meaningful parts of our trip. The Old Quarter has so much character, but what made it special was our guide, Nam. He shared not only history, but his own experiences growing up in Hanoi. The quiet corners, ancient gates, and beautiful pagodas were like walking through living history. The Ma May Ancient House made us feel like we’d traveled back in time. We also loved the mural street—Nam took great photos of us there. But the part we’ll remember most was when he brought us to a local café, and we tried egg coffee for the first time while hearing traditional music playing nearby. It was romantic, cultural, and peaceful all in one. We didn’t feel like tourists—we felt connected to the heart of Hanoi. Nam also gave us tips for places to eat and shop after the tour. Thank you, Nam and ForeverVacation, for such a beautiful experience. You made our first visit to Vietnam so special. We’ll never forget it.

We are a group of retirees who love slow travel, and this was perfect. Our guide, Lan Anh, was soft-spoken, insightful, and paced the tour just right. We admired every temple and enjoyed watching local life unfold in the alleys. The museum was a highlight for our group, as was the mural street. Egg coffee break was such a treat! Thank you Lan Anh and ForeverVacation for treating us with care and warmth.

As someone studying architecture, I was blown away by this tour! The blend of Vietnamese, Chinese, and French styles in the Old Quarter is mesmerizing. Our guide, Ngan, was incredible—she explained everything with passion and clarity. We even discussed traditional building materials used centuries ago. The Ma May House was my favorite stop. And yes, the coffee was amazing too. Thank you, Ngan, for making my academic interest come alive on the streets of Hanoi.

I booked this tour to break away from the usual city rush—and I’m so glad I did. Walking through Hanoi’s Old Quarter felt like breathing in centuries of history. Our guide, Truong, had a calm presence and a deep knowledge of the city. He even took us to a small alley café that served the best coffee I’ve ever had. The combination of storytelling and exploration made this experience unforgettable.

As a couple celebrating our anniversary, we were blown away by the thoughtful little touches. Our guide, Dao, even surprised us with a flower from a street vendor. History, laughter, love—all in one walk. Thank you Dao and ForeverVacation!
