My tour guide, Mary, is very resourful and friendly. She told me a lot about the culture and history of Hanoi which I wouldn’t otherwise have known. It’s my first time on a motorbike and her driving was excellent - there is nothing like experiencing the city on a bike. Oh, and love the Bahn Xeo and Egg Coffee! Will definitely recommend to everyone. Thanks again Mary, I had a great time!

I travelled to Hanoi alone and Momentlives kindly allowed me to go solo on a combined rice paper village and incense in one day. Mike replied all my emails promptly and gave his suggestions which are both professional and very helpful. Finally we decided to go to the rice paper village in the morning and the incense village in the afternoon. The incense village workers would be gathering the incense sticks in the afternoon and it would be just as good as morning. I was greeted on the day by a local guide and a driver. The local guide (sorry I forgot his name :p) spoke good English, kindly stopped and bought me breakfast because I forgot to pack a breakfast with me, and took me to the village. He is very passionate about photography. He showed me various interesting spots in the village where you can get really good shots, read the light and the scene, and being able to communicate with the locals, he spoke to the locals so they won't feel awkward having a foreigner sticking a camera in their faces or being in their premises, which is always a great help and something I could not achieve by going there on my own :p I was driven back to the hotel, had lunch on my own, and set off for the incense village in the afternoon. We got to this one incense village workshop where a number of workers were hard at work doing various tasks. My guide made the right decision of sticking to this workshop and waited - the golden hour came and it was beautiful. I would definitely recommend Momentlives to any photographers regardless of which level they are at.

Our tour guide, Hai, picked us up from our hotel in a hotel shuttle and took us to the edge of the old town in Son Phong area, for our first taste of the local food. The first was a street vendor with Banh Khot, a tiny egg pancake filled with shrimp, served with greens and pieces of pork. The next stop was in Tan An, in a lane where the modest little restaurant served Banh Beo, steamed rice cakes with shrimp paste and topped with strips of fried pork skin. Another street vendor, in Minh An opposite the the Catholic church, sold us Che Me Den - Black Sesame soup - a strange, sweet, but unattractive cold dessert. Then in Cam Pho we we stopped for Cao Lau, Hoi An's signature dish - fat rice noodles, slices of barbecued pork, pork crackling, bean shoots, greens and soup stock. These noodles must be made with water from the Ba Le Well, the town's original water supply, which Hai also took us to see. After a walk through Tran Phu street, the main street full of interesting temples, shops and old houses, we stopped briefly at the market for some White Rose dumplings and something that looked like Vietnamese style nachos. Eventually we ended up at another small family restaurant not far from the Japanese Bridge that served what Hai called Vietnamese pizza! It was really Banh Trang Nuong, a rice paper circle covered in quail egg, dried shrimp, ground pork and spring onions, then topped with greens, chili, cucumber, sprouts or whatever, rolled up and dipped in fish sauce. It was a long and very filling 'progressive dinner' and a great experience to do when visiting Hoi An. We would never have discovered some of these places and dishes if it wasn't for Hai's guidance.

I had a wonderful time doing the Night Food Tour. Kevin, my guide, took me to five different food places. At each restaurant, I was able to try their signature dishes. Delicious. I would not have known about these restaurants without the tour. And along the way, Kevin gave us many other city recommendations. Fabulous tour. Come hungry. Kevin, I am sorry for not reviewing the trip sooner due to a long travel list. Hope you are all good too these days. Be safe

We booked a last-minute day trip to Halong Bay through our hotel concierges on Amazing Sails. We are glad that we did it. The service is very good. The activities were varied enough for a day trip. The cook is exceptionally talented. We had a 5-Star Restaurant food for a fraction of the price. He even made each of us a special meal as we each wanted a different thing.

Had an amazing time at the street food tour conducted by Little Tea. The guide was a young college girl Hannah who was very polite and suave. She took us around Little District of Hanoi where we tasted Banh My, Beef in Papaya salad, various preparations of noodles,dessert and egg coffee. She knew her way around the small alleys of Hanoi.Would definitely recommend it
