Julia - Tour Guide in Hanoi

Hi there, adventurous traveler!

I'm Julia - your fun-loving, story-spilling, street food-snacking local tour guide in Hanoi.

(Oh, and yes, I’m a fully licensed tour guide too!)

After 20+ years living in this incredible city, I can promise you one thing: Hanoi is pure magic. It’s where ancient legends meet buzzing motorbikes, where the aroma of sizzling bánh xèo dances through streets lined with French architecture and timeless pagodas.

But here’s the thing - Hanoi isn’t meant to be seen… it’s meant to be experienced.

That’s where I come in. With me as your guide, you won’t just tick off tourist spots. You’ll hear the whispered legends of old temples, sip a frothy egg coffee on a secret balcony, and maybe even learn how to cross the street like a local (pro tip: don’t stop walking 😅).

And yes - Train Street is on the list. Where else can you sip coffee as a train zips by just inches away?

Whether you're a culture lover, foodie, history buff, or just here for the vibes, I’ll tailor the journey to YOU. Expect laughter, surprises, hidden gems, and stories the guidebooks forgot to tell.

So… ready to explore Hanoi like a local?

Let’s hit the streets together - one bite, one legend, one laugh at a time.

Julia hat sich sehr viel Mühe gegeben und uns die schönsten und interessantesten Orte Hanois gezeigt sowie das alltägliche Leben näher gebracht. Am Ende hat sie uns allen noch ein Gebäck gekauft. Es war toll!

We had the tour with Lisa, a colleague of Julia. Even though we were just 2 people, she guided us to all the spots and we felt really well taken care of. It was amusing, interesting and really fun! We had a great time!! Thank you🫶🏼

I had an amazing tour in Hanoi’s Old Quarter and it truly exceeded my expectations. We explored the lively narrow streets, visited beautiful temples, and even stopped at the old railway station. The highlight was standing right by the tracks as the train passed – an unforgettable and thrilling moment. Traveling through the neighborhood by train gave me a unique perspective of the city. The whole experience was incredibly interesting, beautiful, and full of authentic local atmosphere. Absolutely recommended.

Julia is such an entertaining, enthusiastic and engaging tour guide and she really knows her stuff. She added a bit of humour to everything and brought the group together, asking questions as well as sharing knowledge, so I would strongly recommend a tour with Julia!
