Hanoi’s history dates back almost a thousand years. It has witnessed numerous incursions from China, seen a host of Vietnamese emperors come and go and at one time it even lost its status as the nation’s capital. The city’s temples, pagodas, and religious practices reflect a strong Chinese influence. With the coming of the French at the end of the 19th century the city gained a new lease of life. The European influence can still be seen in the elegant colonial buildings that line the broad tree-lined boulevards of much of the city.
The tour is split into a morning and afternoon schedule, with a tasty lunch in between! At 8a.m there will be a pick up from your hotel.
