What to do in Hanoi
We are arriving in Hanoi early and we were curious if anyone has suggestions for things to do that are not included in the Tauck city tour. We had to cancel a day to HaLong Bay because of back issues. We have an evening food tour scheduled but so far that is all we have on the agenda. Any ot the markets that are recommended, Is the train street worthwhile? . We would hire a guide but have had no luck so far. Thanks for the help

Contact the concierge at the Metropole and explain what you want to do. They will definitely help you. The Tauck city tour doesn't show you a whole lot.

The walk to and around the lake through the old city is nice. Be advised that Hanoi is the least pedestrian-friendly city I've ever been to, as sidewalks are used for scooter and motorcycle parking, but it still can be done.
