DESCRIBE

Duration: 3 hours early morning.

ITINERARY

5:30 am (summer time) or 6.00 (winter time) our guide will greet you at your hotel. We start traveling by taxi from your hotel. First we visit to the famous wholesale flower market where hundreds of different kinds of flowers are being sold in bulk to the flower shop keepers. From there, continue to transfer to Long Bien bridge where, underneath is one of the biggest and busiest fruit markets of Hanoi. Both these wholesale markets are only seen in the early morning!

Next we will travel on foot and see the Old Quarter begin to wake up. You will see street side markets preparing for the morning. We’ll also make our way to Hoan Kiem Lake to witness, and maybe even take part in, people, young and old, exercising, doing Tai Chi, and jogging. As the sun rises, and the light becomes perfect, take every opportunity to snap some of the best photos of your trip!

Finish the tour with a traditional Hanoi breakfast of Pho Bo or Banh Cuon, and head back to your hotel to rest for the day ahead.
