Day 1

Meet at meeting point: This is the gate of a school named Doan Ket school
Attractions and Activities: Train Street (Ticket included) We visited this historic part of Hanoi to hear stories from veterans and learn about the lives of the local people. It's a great place to rest after learning a lot about history and the war. 30 min(s)
Kham Thien B52 Memorial: More Than a Memorial - A Powerful Lesson from History. We visit this memorial not just to remember the tragedy of the past, but to truly learn from it. This is a place to reflect on the powerful lessons history teaches us about resilience, sacrifice, and the enduring strength of the human spirit. 15 min(s)
At the Cho Gioi "black market," we uncover the hidden stories of the war's aftermath. You'll learn how local ingenuity and a secret economy became a powerful story of survival during the difficult planned economy era, a side of history you won't find in guidebooks. 1 hr(s)
Understand Before You Walk: The Story Starts Here. We don't rush you out onto the streets. Our journey begins with a relaxed, sit-down conversation with your open-minded local expert. We take the time to set the stage, providing deep context about the Vietnam War so that every place you visit later has a powerful new meaning. 30 min(s)
Guests leave on their own: End the tour on your own and bring your trip to a happy conclusion You can easily walk back to the Old Quarter

Product details
Hanoi during the Vietnam War: the dark side of its most famous monuments. Discover life under the planned economy, the fate(s) of the local people from both sides (the North and the South; and the story of the unification of Vietnam, a country once divided between the communist and anti-communist, on the brink of the COLD WAR. Our "stroll" will last about 2.5 hours, with a short taxi ride halfway through. The aim of my walk is to make you discover specific areas of Hanoi (far away from the tourist's eyes) in the light of aspects of our city's rich history that are rarely touched upon by guidebooks, with in-depth information (history buffs welcome) but in a relaxed and joyful atmosphere. A conversation, rather than a lecture! Places we will visit: - Cho Gioi: historic black market - Kham Thiem: the B52 memorial - Hanoi Train Street community Note: 20% of the profit will be donated to the Vietnam Association for Victims of Agen Orange/Dioxin and Blue Dragon's Children Foundation.
