Hanoi Countryside Tours By Vintage Vespa
The Hanoi Countryside Vespa Tour offers a unique opportunity to explore the local life and culture while enjoying the beautiful landscape of the Red River and Vietnam countryside on vintage Vespas. This tour takes you off the beaten track to see local non-tourist sights and how the locals live in small farming communities. You'll also have the chance to take a walk through a local wet market, visit a market and ancient temple and pagoda, and explore a traditional 200-year-old house and privately owned Bonsai gardens belonging to a war veteran.
Along the way, you'll meet locals, enjoy delicious special dishes and local drinks, and chat about their daily life over a cup of tea.

The second leg of our Hanoi Vespa Tours will take us through the serene banana and vegetable farming areas of Red River Island. As we traverse through lush green rice paddies, we will deviate from the usual path and head towards a dirt road that leads to the Co Loa Citadel Temple. Here, we will discover more about Vietnam's rich history by visiting a historic site with breathtaking scenery and land associated with the legend of setting up and safeguarding the country against foreign invaders of Thuc Phan An Duong Vuong dating back to 300 BC. Throughout the journey, there will be ample opportunities to pause and capture the beauty of the surroundings and the locals hard at work on their farms.
