The Hanoi motorbike tour takes more than four hours. (Source: Tripadvisor)Hanoi – Hanoi motorbike tour and Hoi An cooking class have been selected by readers of US travel site Tripadvisor as
two of the 25 best travel experiences in Asia.
The half-day guided motorbike tour in Hanoi
allows tourists to explore Vietnam’s capital city’s famous landmarks like Long
Bien Bridge, Hai Ba Trung Temple, the Presidential Palace Historical Site and
try some of the city’s best street foods.
As part of the tour, visitors will have an
opportunity to explore “Train Street”, formed by railway tracks
running alongside Dien Bien Phu and Phung Hung streets in the heart of Hanoi’s
Old Quarter, with residential buildings just a few feet away on either side.
Meanwhile, the five-hour cooking class, organised
by Hoi An Eco Tours Discovery, is considered a fun and interesting way to experience the rural
life in Hoi An, a popular tourist destination in Vietnam’s central Quang Nam
province, and Vietnamese cuisine.
