Step by Step

Explore the heart of Hanoi in a relaxed and cultural way with this 1-hour tour by xích lô, the traditional Vietnamese tricycle that combines history, comfort and authenticity. The Old Quarter, known for its 36 themed streets, is an explosion of life and traditions, and this experience will allow you to soak it all up without rushing.

The tour starts in the Old Quarter, where you'll meet your driver and start strolling through narrow streets filled with French colonial architecture, Buddhist temples and traditional shops. Along the way, you'll pass landmarks such as St Joseph's Cathedral, the Hanoi Opera House, and the bustling Dong Xuan Market, perfect for feeling the local pulse.

As you proceed, the walk will take you past the serene Hoan Kiem Lake, a sacred place for the people of Hanoi and one of the most photographed corners of the city. From there, you'll continue to discover the famous streets of the Old Quarter, each specialising in a product or activity, from calligraphy to traditional sweets.

Although the driver doesn't speak much English, his friendly manner and the surroundings say it all. The experience is designed for travellers who want to connect with the city without rushing, ideal for couples, families or the culturally curious. You can also request to be dropped off directly at your hotel if it's located within the old town.

It's not just a stroll - it's a little cultural immersion that reveals the soul of Hanoi from an intimate and authentic point of view.
