Hanoi City Tour by Motorbike or Bicycle – 3.5 Hours: Long Bien Bridge, Banana Island & Train Street

  • Hanoi
  • Excursion d'une journée
  • Privé ou petit groupe
  • Prise en charge à l'hôtel

See Hanoi's famous sights and backstreets in 3.5 hours by motorbike or bicycle: Long Bien Bridge, a local market, Banana Island or the night wholesale market, Quang An flower market, West Lake, Tran Quoc Pagoda, B52 Lake and Train Street.

The quickest way to see Hanoi is the way locals do: on two wheels. In three and a half hours you cross Long Bien Bridge, ride through backstreets and markets, circle West Lake and stop at the city's best-known landmarks, the good and the gritty side of the city.

Groups are small (1–10 people), so your guide has time for your questions.

  • Ride on the back of a motorbike with a careful driver, or cycle with your guide
  • Long Bien Bridge (1899–1902), once one of Asia's longest bridges
  • Banana Island farms by day, or the overnight Long Bien wholesale market by night
  • Quang An flower market, West Lake and Tran Quoc Pagoda
  • B52 Lake, the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum and Train Street
