Activity Detail
Duration: 3 hours
Places to Guide: Old Quarter
Hanoi would not be Hanoi without its Old Quarter..The quarter is exhausting ("What's with all the honking?!" my friend asks) and crowded; you'll be jostled by passing motorbikes, cyclos, and hawkers with shoulder-poles hanging pendulous burdens of local produce. The quarter is one of those places in the world that grows on you the more you experience it.
