As soon as the millionaire saw this itinerary, he thought it was super cool. It is such a special experience. It is super cool to be able to sit in a jeep from the war and visit the sights in downtown Hanoi. Hurry up and sign up! The Army Jeep Half-Day Tour has three sessions: morning session (7:30 – 12:00), noon session (12:30 – 17:00), and evening session (17:00 – 21:30).
If you must see a train passing by on Train Street, remember to choose the noon session. The tour guide said that only trains after noon will be on time!
itinerary summary
12:30 – Hotel pick up
12:40 – Lunch at Hidden Gem Coffee
Hidden Gem Coffee is a restaurant with a very environmentally friendly concept. Many restaurant facilities are made from recycled waste, such as tables made of old door frames, tire chairs, etc. The rich man appreciates it very much.
The rich man felt that the portion of the meal was quite sufficient. The photo below is for one person, including 4 snacks and a bowl of rainbow rice noodles. The colors on the rice noodles are natural pigments extracted from some flowers. After the meal, there are also You can try the most famous light coffee, but unfortunately the rich man is not a person who likes to try new things, so he ended up ordering a cup of ordinary coffee (laughs).
13:35 – Long Bien Bridge
Long Bien Bridge was built by the company that built the Eiffel Tower during the French colonial period. The tour guide joked that it was the fallen Eiffel Tower.
On the way to the B52 Victory Memorial Hall, we passed the mausoleum of Ho Chi Minh, the greatest Vietnamese figure, the consulate area of various countries, and the bamboo and silk collections.lake(Truc Bach Lake), West Lake.
14:15 – B52 Victory Memorial Hall
My favorite attraction during this trip was climbing up and down tanks and anti-aircraft guns. It was really busy. I will write another article to share it.
15:20 – Waiting for the train at Train Street
The tour guide said that trains from the direction of Ho Chi Minh are prone to delays, so those who want to see the train passing by should come in the afternoon. This time, we have to wait for the 3:30 pm train.
The train showed up on time! The speed was very fast, not slow. I originally wanted to help the little rich man take a photo with the train, but in the end he pulled the little rich man back with one hand and took the photo with the other hand, so the photo angle was weird.

15:45 – Experiencing adventure in local streets and markets
The tour guide took us into the narrow alleys where locals live, and briefly introduced the evolutionary history of Hanoi houses. As well as the fresh meat sold in the nearby vegetable market, since the Lunar New Year is approaching, the tour guide also introduced some Lunar New Year customs to us, but generally speaking, I think tourists from Taiwan and Hong Kong may feel quite similar, so there is no big surprise. .
16:30 – Return to hotel
The little rich man collapsed from exhaustion. When he woke up, he would have the strength to go to the night market (laughing).
rich man experience
In fact, the price of a half-day sightseeing tour with an old-fashioned army jeep is not cheap. The asking price is 50 US dollars, which is similar to the price of a one-day tour of Halong Bay and a one-day tour of Ninh Binh. In fact, the so-called old army jeeps are actually "retro" jeeps manufactured in 2004. The rich man originally thought that the jeeps were left over from the war (laughs).
Then I felt that the trip ended early, and I returned to the hotel at 4:30 pm. It was not like the 4.5 hours mentioned in the original itinerary, and I didn’t see the Hanoi Opera House.
Since there are 9 million people living in Hanoi and there are more than 7 million motorcycles, the traffic and air are naturally not good. I feel a little dizzy after sitting in a jeep for a long time (laughs).
