day 1Join trip in Hanoi
Our trip starts today in Hanoi. Vietnam's bustling capital is architecturally styled like a French provincial town, with tree-lined boulevards and low-rise buildings. It's a wonderful city to explore on foot.
Our tour leader plans to meet everyone in the hotel reception at 4pm for a welcome meeting. Afterwards, for those who wish, we'll head to a restaurant for dinner. On the way to dinner, our tour leader will orientate you and introduce you to life in Vietnam as you head through some of the bustling streets and markets of Hanoi's Old Quarter. The maze of alleys is known for its 'tube' houses, whose narrow frontages give way to long rooms that stretch back from the road.
If you'd like an airport transfer today, you'll need to arrive into Noi Bai International Airport (HAN). There are no other activities planned today, so you're free to arrive at any time. However, if you'd like to join the orientation tour, you'll need to arrive at the hotel by 4pm. If you're booking your own flights, we recommend giving yourself at least 30 minutes to clear the airport. From the airport to the hotel is around a 45-minute drive, so the latest your flight can arrive is 1pm.
Should you miss the welcome meeting, our tour leader will leave a note at the front desk to inform you of any essential information.
