our guide Ingrid sorted everything for us and a tiny courtyard tucked off the main drag was the highlight. Went last tuesday so it wasnt too busy. Honestly better than the walking tour we did in hanoi last year, and mid-week so it was quiet. Would book again no question.

our guide Aiko sorted everything for us and a tiny courtyard tucked off the main drag was the highlight. Did it on our first morning so it wasnt too busy. Blew our cape town one out of the water, and covered about 5km on foot. Would book again no question.
