Kenya to Hanoi tours are the best way to see the world and make great memories! From the wide savannas, its fields savored by lions, to the crowded, colorful streets of Hanoi, a city steeped in history and flavor. But imagine for a moment that you’re forgoing the rolling plains of the Maasai Mara for the timeless character of Hanoi’s Old Quarter, where ancient temples rub shoulders with busy market stalls.
Detailed 6-Day Itinerary: Discovering Hanoi & Beyond
Day 1: Arrival in Hanoi – The City of a Thousand Years
The start of your Kenya to Hanoi tour is the day you touch down at Noi Bai International Airport in Hanoi. Your friendly guide will meet you and escort you to your 4-star hotel located in the center of the Old Quarter.
After a short break, time to get back into the rhythm of Hanoi! Enjoy a classical cyclo spin around Hoan Kiem Lake, a serene oasis in the heart of the forest, where the romance of a mythical sword and gilded turtle continues to seduce travelers.
Your first day in Vietnam concludes as the sun sets, and you enjoy a welcome dinner at Home Hanoi Restaurant; where you’ll enjoy authentic Vietnamese cuisine in a warm, yet elegant atmosphere. Sample grilled spring rolls, caramelized fish, and signature Bun Cha, a Hanoi specialty not to be missed.
