We had a wonderful day cycling around Hanoi with the two guides of Jackfruit Adventure. The tour was truly off the beaten track and as we "followed the flow" of Hanoi traffic, we almost felt like locals ourselves. While Hanoi traffic can be overwhelming, we felt safe at all times. Exploring a city by bicycle gives you a completely different and more intense experience. Although we are experienced cyclists, being supported by our guide Aiden made it special, because he shared so many details, answered all our questions and made us feel truly welcome. We would highly recommend the tour to anyone who wants to get to know more of the city than the famous sights and who enjoys being close to real life.

Ngoc, was such a kind, generous and fun host, this ended up being one of my favourite tours of our entire trip it was such a real look at the day to day lives of people in her village who have been working at their crafts for decades.

Ngoc is an excellent translator so we got to speak with the locals about what they do (and answer the questions they had for us).

Definitely one to choose if you want authenticity not a staged demonstration

Booked this for our first real day exploring Hanoi. My husband and I had a great time seeing a part of Hanoi by bike and with a local. Lyon helped us navigate riding through the streets and round the lake with other cyclists, Vespa riders and cars. Pretty views, hidden alleyways and lots of stops for photos and local snacks like ice cream, shrimp cakes, spring rolls and Hanoi beer, and even made Vietnamese egg coffee - all of it delish! Lyon was knowledgeable, fun and kind. Definitely recommend!

We definitely got to see the off-track side of Hanoi while cycling through the alleys and streets.
 Our guide Aiden is genuine and enthusiastic. We really enjoyed the exchanges during the snack break.

The route does involve weaving thru the hectic traffic of the city, but once you brave through the first stage, you realise that this is how millions of people move around the city daily and that you've become part of it!
