Civil War Free Walking Tours in Hanoi

Stella was amazing and exceeded our expectations in every sense. She is close, smart, gave us her point of view and answered all the questions asked. We had a wholesome conversation on history and will be the highlight of this trip to Hanoi. I definitely recommend her, it was a pleasure spending the afternoon learning from her!

Very informative you about Vietnam and it's past and present times. Stella is a great guide. She contacted me in advance to give clear information about the tour. She led the group through two significant places in Hanoi and told about the history of these places and of the country in total. I liked that she shared her personal stories related to the topic of the tour. She is very lovely, smart and ambitious person and does her job just great.

Stella was very knowledgable and had lots to tell with a personal touch:) The time flew by! Would most highly recommend, she even gave us some food recommendations at the end of the;)

Thank you Stella. Was a fantastic tour and would most definitely recommend Lots of information and really enjoyed the tour.

Excelente guía resultó ser Stella. Además del conocimiento, aportó mucho de la cultura local. Muy recomendable

Great tour, thanks Stella!

Thank you Stella! This girl just knows everything.

Great tour, very informative. You will get very in depth explanations about the two site you'll visit and the historical context.

Great tour with rich contextual references and informed history. She answered all questions and kept us engaged throughout. She had a clear understanding of the subject and did not appear lost anywhere.

Guida molto brava e competente, abbiamo appreso moltissimo della storia recente del Vietnam. Tour assolutamente consigliato

Stella was amazing! So knowledgeable and taught us so much about the history of Vietnam as a whole and significant sites in Hanoi! The best tour we did on the whole trip!!!

I 10/10 recommend that you book this tour with Stella. She is informative, kind and is phenomenal at what she does! Thank you so much 🫰🫶☺️

An absolut must when in Hanoi! Stella did a fantastic job, she provided a lot of insider info, answering all my questions (and I had a lot!) and shared a lot of personal insights into vietnamese history, extra big thanks to her for that. I highly recommend this tour, if you can, go with Stella.

I had the privilege of going on a walking tour with Stella on my final day in Hanoi, where we visited Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum and Maison Centrale. It was just me that day, so I would say the tour was in many ways an engaging conversation. As someone from the Middle East who has always been interested in the Vietnam War’s history, I can recognize and identify with many of the characteristics of its history, and it was through Stella that I learned much more about Uncle Ho’s life and how the Vietnamese people persisted through times of great hardship and injustice. Stella’s captivating storytelling, depth of knowledge and personal accounts related from her own family’s background added levels of depth to an otherwise already captivating conversation. Stella expertly bridged the gap between history and contemporary culture in Vietnam, which definitely gives you a lot to think about post-tour. For those seeking to understand contemporary Vietnamese history, particularly from someone so passionate and knowledgeable such as Stella, this is the walking tour for you. Thank you Stella for your enthusiasm, adaptability and thoughtfully answering my so many questions!

Es war eine sehr eindrückliche Tour.

Stella is very knowledgeable and she explain in a very detailed manner..

Stella provided an excellent tour, full of information and history. She even did the tour with me alone after other canceled. I enjoyed all the other conversation and information she was able to provide along the way to my tons of questions. Would highly recommend this tour.

We really enjoyed our tour with Stella! It was just me and my boyfriend. The amount of knowledge she shared with us was impressive and we got a lot of authethic insights into Vietnamese culture and history. We would definitely recommend to visit the Museum and Temple with her as you get a completely different, in-depth experience :)

An excellent tour of the prison and Temple of Knowledge. The prison was a bit grim but history can suck sometimes. Stella was very informative and also provided many insights into the culture and politics of Modern Vietnam. It was just nice to chat and share our various stories. A great tour.

I’m so glad I booked this tour and was matched with Stella. I got lucky too in that I was the only person in the group and so was treated to a very personalised number of cultural, political, historical and societal insights into Vietnam. I learned so much about the places we visited but also at a depth way beyond what I could have hoped for. I highly recommend this tour by Stella!!

Stella is very knowledgeable and kind, patiently helping me find the group as I arrive after it had started. She was open to any questions and discussion on the past and present of Vietnam, making for an interesting exchange. Highly recommended tour for people interested in history.

Molto interessante!

Great tour to learn a lot about Vietnamese history. Stella knows many interesting facts and stories, I highly recommend her tour!

This was definitely one of the best tours I joined during my trip to Vietnam. What made it truly unique was its focus on the complex history of the country. It gave me a whole new perspective on Vietnam beyond the usual tourist spots.

Great experience! Stella is an excellent guide, she has a wealth of knowledge and she answered all our questions around history, geopolitics, culture and food. Totally recommended if you want to get a deeper understanding of Vietnamese culture!
