Fantastic tour of the city of Hanoi ! We decided to do this to experience the traffic in Hanoi ! And it didn’t disappoint! I was unsure in the beginning yet it was SO good I didn’t want it to end !! The city is so green and we spent a lot of time on the motorbikes that it honestly was SO enjoyable !!! Our drivers Ali & Olivia were so knowledgeable and happy to chat as we drove around to see all the sights !! They were SO informative and answered all the questions we constantly asked of them ! Sadly they didn’t come with us when we stopped at places of interest as we had a TOUR GUIDE ( he was on his own bike out front ). We didn’t need the tour guide HOA as the drivers were a LOT MORE FUN AND ENGAGING than he was . It was odd too as it’s suppose to be women in Hanoi and he was the guide ! Best thing we did here !!! It was fabulous !
I had a wonderful experience with our tour guide Ali. As a solo female traveler, I appreciated being picked up and dropped off at my hotel. I felt safe and comfortable with the female drivers. We also had a male escorting the group through out the tour. I would highly recommend the tour, special if you're time is limited. We saw and experienced a lot of the city and its history in a short period of time. I enjoyed doing many short stops in places off the beaten like Banana Island.
Our tour was amazing, a highlight of our trip! The guides were wonderful and showed us things we never would’ve seen on our own. Highly recommend!
amazing experience! Hong and Happy were fantastic!
Summi and Money were absolutely wonderful. They were so kind, welcoming, and accommodating. As a vegetarian, tours with food are hit or miss. This was a solid hit! The food was delicious. A massive shoutout to Ocean and Anh for their expert driving. Navigating the chaotic traffic and winding roads looked effortless. Not once did we feel unsafe and they handled the bike like the true pros they were, allowing us to relax and take in the views.
Such a fun day with Summi, Trang, Ali, Hang, and Lee! Drivers were all great and Summi is very knowledgeable about Hanoi history and landmarks. Highly recommend for a fun day on the city to do something different!
Summi and her team were so lovely and made this experience extra special for us!! We were so lucky, and saw so many great things!!
Summi and Tom were amazing. We started the tour promptly . Summi is a wealth of knowledge and explained so much in her excellent English. She made me feel very comfortable and showed me how wonderful Hanoi is . Tom was excellent support and extremely helpful. I highly recommend these guides!
Had the best tour today with Summi, Trang and Mihn. Easy pick/drop off. Lots of information about Vietnamese history and culture …. and an authentic and fun experience. They were all so kind and helpful and Mihn captured some great photos for us. Visited some great locations and had a great tour with them! Highly recommend.
This is the perfect way to visit Hanoi! Felt safe and it was very informative Summi was a fountain of knowledge! Had so much fun thank you again Summi, Ali and Tom you were brilliant.
When I booked this experience I was wondering why all the hyped up reviews after today I can confirm these reviews are all legit has the opportunity go with Summi she was excellent, fun charming professional and most of all optimistic she was well educated and amazing safe driver and always made sure you were having fun, I didn't expect this experiment which was lengthy almost 6 hours to be this good, without a doubt one of the highlights of my trip this is a must in Hanoi !
Great experience. Tour guide/drover (Money) was great. Friendly and happy to give us explanations at the various stops. Despite having been to Hanoi a few times, still found the tour fun and highly recommend.
Wow! Spent the afternoon with Money and Melanie and had an amazing time. I’d never ridden on a moped before and Melanie was patient with explaining the ropes. I felt safe the entire time and had fun taking in Vietnam from the back of the moped! Would recommend to anyone who’s keen to zip around and get to know of Vietnam and its culture.
We did a tour yesterday with Summi, Melanie and Ocean. These women were amazing! They took three women in their 60s (two of whom had never been on a motor bike or scooter) around for several hours of fun in the ciry. After about five minutes of holding on really tight I felt a lot more comfortable. They were careful drivers, good guides with a lot of knowledge and really sweet. I would definitely recommend this excursion!
Great tour with Hoa and Melony. I had a wonderful tour with them. I discovered many places, and good food, and it was so interesting! Melony is a perfect driver!
Took the motorbike tour for family on Sat morning. Greeted by Team Leader and her team at ThangLong Opera Hotel lobby. Started with ride to Opera House, B52 exhibit, Train Street, Banana Island and riding on the oldest bridge in Hanoi. We had Chicken Pho at a local house, taste good and proceed back to hotel. Whole trip about 3+ hours and we enjoyed every bit of the ride! The team of young lady riders were knowledgeable, experienced and careful and they speak English well! I would recommend anyone wanting a ride in Hanoi to try engaging them!
Miss Money was a fantastic tour guide funny informative and a great rider never felt worried anytime through the ride. Would highly recommend it to family and friends if you’re here give it a crack great time.
What an amazing experience thank you so much to Linh and the girls for showing us such a great time. Highly recommend this to anybody travelling to Hanoi.
We had a great motorbike tour with Summi and her team. While traffic in Hanoi is chaothic and we had never been on a motorbike before we felt safe and enjoyed the tour. Summi was a great guide telling about history, daily life and culture. Her team took pictures and made a video of the tour for us. Highly recommended by us.
Fun afternoon. We really enjoyed our rides with Linh, Duyen, Hang
what a fabulous tour Summi & Hung were fantastic very professional, with a lot of local knowledge. would highly recommend 👌
This was by far my favorite experience in Hanoi. My boyfriend and I booked a small group tour but ended up being the only ones so our amazing guide Hoa worked with us to customize our stops to hit places and things we hadn’t seen/tried yet which we so appreciated. Riding the bikes was also such a cool way to explore (both figuratively and literally, notably for summer travelers) and felt totally safe and easy! Our drivers Hang and Duyen were the sweetest, always helping us to put our helmets on, storing waters and rain ponchos, and sharing info about the city as we passed through. And I feel like we got to ride through parts of the city we never would have otherwise, like maze-like inner alleys and residential markets. There were times it felt like we were literally in a movie! Bonus was that the included coffee and lunch were to-die-for delicious. I cannot recommend this tour enough. Especially if you have only a short time here, I think it’s one of the best ways you could see and learn a lot about the city, including a bunch of awesome off-the-beaten-path spots.
This might be the best tour I have ever taken. So much fun to ride the motorbikes through wethe city and the drivers keep you feeling completely safe with good helmets and new bikes. Easy for anyone to ride even people who have never ridden a bike before. We went through places no tourist would ever go on foot or by car/bus because you literally can’t— deep mazes of narrow alleyways where the locals live, banana island filled with pristine agriculture, the oldest bridge in Hanoi, and the famous B-52 crash site. The tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and answered the million questions I had for him. They even allowed us to choose what dish we wanted for lunch and took us to an excellent local bun cha spot filled with Vietnamese customers not tourists. Overall an excellent experience and I feel that I know so much more about the history and culture of Hanoi. Incredible value and length of time for the price. 11/10!!
One of the best things I did in Hanoi. I just wanted to get out of the usual tourist spots, and this motorbike tour ended up being perfect for that. Riding around Long Bien Bridge was really cool, but the best part was honestly just wandering through the farmland along the Red River. It felt like a completely different world compared to the busy city just a few minutes away. We stopped for a mung bean drink with jelly cubes, which I didn’t expect to like as much as I did—but it was actually really refreshing. Happy was a great guide. Super easygoing, good energy, and she handled Hanoi traffic like a pro. I felt totally safe the whole time. She also threw in some restaurant recommendations, and I tried a a place afterward—both were really good. If you want to see a more real, everyday side of Hanoi without overthinking it, I’d definitely recommend this tour.
The tour was so nice, i explored diverse and interesting places in Hanoi city. Also special thanks to my guide Emma for her smile, kindness and company ! I recommand this activity 100%, I enjoyed it so much :)
Love Summi and team. They took very good care of us and made sure we are safe and comfortable while on the bikes. It helps that they do food tours as well so can recommend interesting dishes for lunch
Very interesting tour of the city. Our guide, Happy, is really insightful and knowledgeable. Don’t hesitate to ask her for advices. I loved my driver Jinny. She made me feel safe throughout the tour. Thoroughly enjoyed discovering the city with both of them.
Summi and her team were amazing, funny, knowledgeable, helpful and very kind. Would highly recommend her
Happy was an amazing tour guide!! She made me feel safe the entire time and was a walking encyclopedia for every landmark in Hanoi we passed. She also took wonderful photos to remember the tour by. I would definitely recommend this motorbike tour for solo travellers!!
Our 11 years old had fun and we felt safe. Great experience.
Summi and her team gave us a fantastic tour of Hanoi on their scooters. We love everything about the tour and we felt very safe. Summi had great knowledge of Hanoi and we felt comfortable asking any questions. We would highly recommend them!
We made our tour reservation after researching various website but specifically got a recommendation from a freinds family that lives in Hanoi. There was three of us and we opted for a private tour. Totally worth every dollar. We saw so much and had so much time to ourselves. Our guide was Summi and she was excellent. She and her team kept us safe and we were comfortable the entire time. Summi has a great grasp of the English language and her time living in Hanoi really shows through.
Hanoi Motorbike Tours Led by Women provide a great behind the scenes look at sights in Hanoi that don’t get visited as often (eg: Banana Island, Long Bien Bridge and the B-52 Museum). If you have already seen the main tourist sites (eg: Old Quarter, Hoan Kiem Lake, Ngoc Son Temple, Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, Temple of Literature, Tran Quoc Pagoda, St Joseph Cathedral and Hoa Lo Prison) then this is a good option for you since these are only passed by briefly on this tour. Our guides (a great little team of Summi, Ginny, Bong, Hang, Thom, Ngan, Minh and Thuong) were very friendly and pleasant, very knowledgeable, and super safe to ride with. I would just say that, if you are booking this for a group, confirm with the company that all your guides have good proficiency in English.
Brilliant afternoon, great tour with plenty of really valuable insights from Sunni and her fantastic team. We were taken to spots that tourists don't normally get to see and this gave us an insight into the locals and history of Hanoi. Thank you the girls (and Tom) for a really great afternoon we all had a ball.
Sammi and her team did a great job! They were safe bikers, the bikes were modern and comfy, they brought us to interesting places and provided us with profound information. They are really nice ladies, my husband and me enjoyed their company and we like this women project a lot.
Linh was a phenomenal guide. This tour was so much fun and worth it to see Hanoi in a way that many don’t get to experience. Highly recommend!
We had an informative and fun tour of this incredible city thanks to our guides Happy and Bong. Sigh up for this tour, you’ll learn so much in a short time!
This is an absolute must do if you’re visiting Hanoi. We felt very safe, ride was smooth. An absolute highlight of our stay. The team were brilliant!
Linh is an excellent tour guide! From sharing the history of each place to introducing Vietnamese culture, she made the experience truly special. She also took me to some of the best pho and coffee in town. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an authentic Hanoi experience!
We had a most wonderful time on our tour, our guide Summi along with Bong and Hung gave us the best experience of seeing Hanoi as the locals do. We felt very safe on the back of their bikes as we negotiated the traffic. So much of the history of Vietnam was explained so clearly and the places they took us to, gave us a very varied and wonderful tour. Highly recommended this to anyone to get a great look around Hanoi. Thank you Summi, Bong and Hung.
My wife and I went on a private tour this morning with Hanoi Motorbike Tours Led By Women. We were guided by two exceptionally kind young women who spoke perfect English. Summi led the way, along with another guide whose name I unfortunately can’t remember. They took us around the city with incredible confidence and skill in Hanoi’s chaotic traffic. Along the way, we saw some of the city’s sights as well as places we would never have discovered on our own. To finish the tour, we enjoyed a delicious traditional lunch before being driven back to our hotel. The tour was truly worth every penny, especially because of Summi’s warm, welcoming, and always cheerful personality. She was also very knowledgeable and shared many fascinating insights we were previously unaware of. High praise to the girls — I can only recommend taking a tour like this.
Great tour, Summi was our guide and was very enthusiastic, friendly and local knowledge was top notch. She’s a expert rider. Ride with confidence. Highly recommended, great fun.
This was a great experience, It was my second time in Hanoi and I wanted something very different to see Hanoi. Food excellent, coffee on Train st a highlight. Money my guide spoke excellent English. As a 60 plus single woman, I loved this experience.
This tour was such a fun way of getting to know the city of Hanoi! It's our first time here and our guides showed us popular highlights such as train street (they perfectly time the visit with a train passing through) and the B52 Victory Museum, as well as the less touristy, more hidden corners of the city. We received lots of information on the city, its people and its history and got to try some delicious pho and coffee specialties. The group was very small (just 3 visitors), so the atmosphere was super relaxed and casual. My driver Summi was such a sweet and friendly person, we had many fun chats throughout the afternoon and I felt very safe on the back of her bike the entire time. I really recommend you try this women-led motorbike tour for a wholesome afternoon exploring the best of what Hanoi has to offer!!
If you do one thing in Hanoi, do this. It was the best tour we have ever done, anywhere in the world. Summi and her team were so fun and kind, and we learned so much. It was as exciting as it was informative.
Really great tour with friendly, knowledgeable guides. Happy, my driver, was super helpful and made everything easy. Would totally recommend if you’re visiting Hanoi!
It was a wonderful experience to tour around the city area with experienced and knowledgeable motorbike ladies. The tour was planned in such a way that it covered historic, cultural , recreational and farming related areas. It was a total fun for a 4 hours trip. I thanked my tour guide Ms. Linh for her tremendous hospitality, support and very careful driving around the busy streets of Hanoi.She explained everything very nicely. I don’t hesitate to recommend my friends and family to have such a tour guided by such experienced women group.
An excellent tour with knowledgeable and friendly guides. Happy, my driver, was super accommodating, and Linh was great too. They made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Hanoi.
Fantastic experience ! Safe friendly drives who take you to the best spots. Food was amazing, Simone was lovely and chatted away to us.
