The Vietnam War helped to unfairly saddle Hanoi with a reputation as a dour outpost for Communist apparatchiks. It may not be as chaotic as Saigon, but Hanoi ranks among the world’s most attractive and interesting cities. The city’s placid air gives it a gracious, almost regal flavor, underscored by a rich history that traces back more than a thousand years — a fascinating heritage on display in well-preserved centuries-old architecture. Hanoi is Vietnam’s cultural center, and puppetry, music, and dance performances are well worth your time. Things to Do The quintessential Hanoi neighborhood and the oldest area in town, the Old Quarter is a maze of streets dating back to the 13th century. The Old Quarter’s Communal Houses were set up by guilds as small temples to honor a local god — the Bach Ma, or White Horse, who represents the city itself. Another sightseeing highlight is the Temple of Literature — a sanctuary of Confucianism and Vietnam’s seat of learning for almost a thousand years. Nightlife and Entertainment Hanoi is the best place to experience traditional Vietnamese arts such as opera, theater, and water puppetry, shows that feature traditional music and depict Vietnamese folklores and myths. The city also has a variety of pleasant little watering holes. For a vivid taste of local street life, Hanoi style, pull up a little plastic squat stool on a street corner or in one of the many cozy, open-air bars serving the local brew bia-hoi.

Vietnam Motorbike Rides
We will endeavor to make your trek an unforgettable experience that will live with you forever.
Before driving the motorbike we will provide instruction and training for riding the motorbike. Then your adventure in Vietnam is ready to begin.
Although we tend to specialize in Motorbikes this is only one area of our services.
We have found, for some of our more mature guests, a much more comfortable way of driving but not less interesting is taking a seven seater four wheel drive motor vehicle into the heart-lands. The vehicle is equipped with air conditioning and that makes the trip much more comfortable.
Driving a four wheel drive motor vehicle will offer you a lot more of the Vietnamese countryside and we can stop everywhere to enjoy the beauty of Vietnam. An alternative to this mode of travel is an ex-military jeep – a little less comfortable but as exciting as a motor bike.
In fact, we can provide any form of transportation to suit your needs from a donkey cart to a 45 seater air-conditioned bus.
We will tailor an itinerary to your requirement or take you on one of our own designed treks that will take you away from the tourist swirl and into areas where very few foreigners penetrate.
