A Very Special First Time in Vietnam

This tour was truly special for us.

It was Elane’s very first time traveling to Vietnam. She had just arrived after a long 30 hour journey from very far away and was still feeling the effects of jet lag. She did not speak Vietnamese and did not even have a local SIM card yet. Despite that, she decided to make the most of her time in Hanoi by joining our walking tour.

Cong helped her book a Be ride so she could join the tour. It was a busy time, close to Lunar New Year, when many drivers were not accepting rides. After several attempts, we finally found a driver who could take her. It was not easy, but we made it work. Elane was incredibly curious and asked many thoughtful questions throughout the tour. She shared stories about being American and originally from Belize, which is truly on the other side of the world from Vietnam. It reminded us how travel connects people from places so far apart. After the tour, she left us a review that truly warmed our hearts.

Special moments like this are the reason we love hosting tours and connecting with people from all over the world. It is always our happiness to create meaningful experiences and friendships across cultures and distances.
