Get picked up from your hotel in Hanoi’s Old Quarter and hop on the back of a modern Vespa. Begin your adventure by riding through the bustling streets of Hanoi’s Old Quarter. Stop at a famous local eatery to savour a bowl of bun cha, a Hanoi classic that combines fresh rice noodles, grilled pork, and meatballs, including a plate of crispy spring rolls.
Next, head to the Opera House in the Old Quarter. Take beautiful pictures and selfies, and learn about the history of the area. Continue to St. Joseph Cathedral, one of the earliest in the history of the Catholic Church in Vietnam. Make a quick stop here for photos before enjoying the next Hanoi essential, Banh Goi (Pillow cake) & Banh Tom (Shrimp cake).
Ride past the beautiful ceramic road and Chuong Duong Bridge to have Bia Hoi Hanoi or Hanoi Fresh Beer, a popular draft lager beer in Hanoi. The beer is authentically packaged and delivered daily in steel kegs on motorbikes.
Continue to a local restaurant to try different versions of Pho, “Pho Chien Phong, Chien Trung, Pho Cuon,” and many other Vietnamese dishes. Then, take a ride around the West Lake and Truc Bach area, a romantic sight of Hanoi that most travellers rarely have the chance to see.
Ride past Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum and Hanoi Flag Tower, stopping to take amazing pictures of the nighttime. Finally, head to Hanoi Train Street, which has recently gone viral. Capture great photos of the train going through and enjoy local drinks. End your Vespa night tour with a drop-off at your hotel.
