Hanoi Old Quarter Tour
You Will
See
The many colours and textures of different creative practices, from the sparks of silver workshops to the rapid movement of a hand loom in a fabric shop.
Hear
The clamour and call of local artists working within and in-between their communities and streets. Between the whirl of pottery wheels and the rhythmic beat of wood carvers, these artisans communicate, barter and laugh with each other.
Touch
Feel the 15th Century stone underfoot as you explore the many winding streets of the Old Quarter. Come into contact with beautiful, tactile items from bamboo rafts to mosaic tiles and learn as you experience their dimensions.
Smell
Fully immerse yourself in the rustic experience of the scent of bronze smelters wafting through the air, or inhale the natural perfume of fresh reeds being dried to make handwoven floor-mats. Every doorway holds new smells and memories.
Taste
Dive into the varied flavours of Vietnamese cuisine. From a warm bowl of spice-infused Pho broth that has been simmering for twenty hours to savouring fresh and aromatic turmeric fish with dill, accompanied by dipping crisply fried spring rolls in delectable tangy sauces. Enjoy local delicacies over electric conversation with your fellow travellers and tour guide.
