DETAIL ITINERARY:

Pick-up & First Stop - St. Joseph’s Cathedral
Our Jeep team will pick you up from your hotel and drive you to St. Joseph’s Cathedral, a historic landmark in Hanoi’s Old Quarter. Here, you’ll meet your guide, learn about the cathedral’s fascinating history, and capture beautiful photos before beginning your food adventure.

Taste Hanoi’s Iconic Dish - Bún Chả
Hop back into the Jeep and head to a hidden street gem, home to a traditional family-run eatery serving Bún Chả since 1925. This restaurant is especially famous for hosting former U.S. President Barack Obama during his 2016 visit to Hanoi.
 
Explore the French Quarter
After your first taste of Hanoi cuisine, we cruise into the French Quarter, where wide boulevards and tree-lined avenues contrast with the Old Quarter’s narrow alleys. Admire the grand colonial architecture and enjoy the lively energy of Hanoi at night. We’ll stop in front of the Hanoi Opera House, an architectural masterpiece modeled after the Palais Garnier in Paris. Here, your guide will share stories of Hanoi’s past and present while you capture stunning night photos.

Ceramic Road & Long Bien Bridge
Next, your Jeep will glide along the Ceramic Road, recognized as one of the longest ceramic murals in the world, showcasing vibrant artwork that reflects Vietnamese culture. Soon, we’ll arrive at the Long Bien Bridge, built by the French in 1902 and designed by Gustave Eiffel’s company. Once a vital transportation link, the bridge now offers sweeping views of the Red River and Hanoi’s sparkling skyline. Take a leisurely walk across the bridge, feel the evening breeze, and see Hanoi from a unique perspective rarely experienced by visitors.

Authentic Street Food Experience
Recharged from the sightseeing, it’s time to indulge in more flavors. Our Jeep will whisk you away to a lively local restaurant tucked into small alleys that only insiders know. Here, you’ll taste different versions of Phở, Vietnam’s most famous dish, including:

• Phở Chiên Phồng - crispy fried rice noodles topped with savory sauce.
• Phở Cuốn - fresh rice noodle rolls filled with beef and herbs.
• Phở Trứng - a unique noodle dish with fried egg.

Lakeside Jeep Ride & City Highlights
With satisfied taste buds, it’s time to enjoy the magic of Hanoi by night. We’ll ride around the city’s largest lake, West Lake, where the shimmering water and cool night breeze create a romantic, almost dreamlike atmosphere. This is a side of Hanoi that few travelers get to experience. The Jeep then takes you past important landmarks such as the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, dramatically lit at night. We’ll pause for a short photo stop, giving you the chance to capture one of Hanoi’s most significant monuments under the stars.

Egg Coffee - A Sweet Ending
To complete your evening, we visit a traditional café where you’ll enjoy Vietnam’s most famous beverage - Egg Coffee. Invented in Hanoi in the 1940s, this rich, creamy drink combines robust Vietnamese coffee with a frothy egg yolk cream. It’s the perfect sweet ending to your night, leaving you with both a caffeine boost and a taste of true local culture.
