About Hanoi Trip

Hanoi Trip is an independent travel resource dedicated to helping you discover Hanoi, from the shophouses and street food stalls of the Old Quarter and the water puppet theatre by Hoan Kiem Lake to the Temple of Literature, the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, and the museums and pagodas scattered across the city, boat trips through the karst scenery of Ninh Binh, overnight cruises on Ha Long Bay and Lan Ha Bay, and excursions further into the terraced valleys of the northwest and the mountain passes of the northeast highlands.

What we do

We create in-depth, regularly updated travel guides covering Hanoi and its neighborhoods, boat trips to Ninh Binh and Ha Long Bay, and day trips into the northern mountains and highlands, and the practicalities of getting here and around — including Noi Bai International Airport, local transport, and getting between Hanoi and the surrounding provinces — for both first-time and repeat visitors. Every article is researched thoroughly and written to give you genuine, useful advice — not generic filler content.

How we earn

Hanoi Trip is funded through affiliate partnerships, primarily with GetYourGuide and Viator. When you book a tour or activity through one of our links, we earn a small commission at absolutely no extra cost to you. This income allows us to keep the site running, create new content, and maintain existing guides.

Our affiliate partnerships never influence our recommendations. We suggest activities and tours that we genuinely believe provide good value, regardless of commission rates.

Editorial independence

We are not sponsored by any tourism board, hotel chain, or tour operator. Our recommendations are entirely independent. If something is overpriced, overhyped, or not worth the trip, we will say so.
