We’re thrilled you found the experience worthwhile and picked up useful cooking techniques, and it’s great to hear Jesse made the class engaging and easy to follow. We’re so glad you joined us and would love to welcome you back for more Vietnam experiences one day. A portion of your booking helps provide meals for children in Hanoi hospitals.

This is a partially guided tour meaning you will be on day trips pre-booked for you. My main contact person was Hannah and her response time was excellent via WhatsApp. I always knew the name of the drivers, tour guides and license plate of the vehicles that were picking me up. This is a great option for anyone who, like me, wanted to take a break from planning their own day trips for a few days. Transportation being pre booked was also a huge relief especially after arriving from the airport.Show more

Tour Details
- Up Travel VietnamOperator•Written May 2025
  Domestic flight ticket from Ho Chi Minh to Hanoi is excluded in this package. You can book this ticket on your own. After you book our tour package, I will advise the suitable timing detail for this domestic flight accordingly for you.
- Up Travel VietnamOperator•Written May 2025
  The domestic flight will be from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh. In the morning, you will take a Hanoi half day mornign city tour so the suitable timing for the domestic flight from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh must be at 5pm onwards. The morning tour will finish at around 1:30pm. For domestic flight, you need to be at the airport 2 hours in advance, so the timing at 5pm onwards is the most suitable.
