View AllThis premium private full-day “Classic Landmarks” tour is designed for guests arriving at Noi Bai International Airport from Tuesday to Sunday. Because the Ho Chi Minh Complex closes early, your dedicated guide will bring you there first after airport pickup, followed by a well-paced exploration of Hanoi’s most important historical and cultural sites.
Airport Pickup: Between 06:30 – 08:30 AM at Noi Bai International Airport (flexible according to your flight arrival). Our representative will wait with a name sign in the arrival hall.
09:30 – 11:00: Visit the Ho Chi Minh Complex first. Pay respects at the mausoleum and explore the iconic One Pillar Pagoda, the humble stilt houses where Ho Chi Minh lived and worked, and the peaceful gardens of Ba Dinh Square.
11:15 – 12:00: Continue to Tran Quoc Pagoda, the oldest Buddhist pagoda in Hanoi (6th century), beautifully located on a small island in West Lake. Admire its elegant architecture and tranquil setting.
12:15 – 13:15: Enjoy a delicious Vietnamese lunch at a carefully selected local restaurant.
13:45 – 15:00: Visit Temple of Literature (Van Mieu – Quoc Tu Giam), Vietnam’s first national university founded in 1070. Wander through its serene courtyards, ancient pavilions, and the Well of Heavenly Clarity.
15:15 – 16:30: Take a scenic stroll around Hoan Kiem Lake, visit Ngoc Son Temple, and enjoy a guided walking tour through the bustling Old Quarter with its iconic 36 ancient streets.
Private drop-off: Between 16:45 – 17:00 PM directly at your hotel in Hanoi (hotel booked by you). Tour concludes.
