Itinerary
✈️ Meet your driver at Noi Bai Airport
After collecting your luggage, look for the driver at the meeting point provided by CAT. We will collect your flight number and arrival details in advance and send the pick-up instructions before you travel.
🚗 Private transfer to the Old Quarter
A private car or van will take you directly to Hanoi Plaza Suite Hotel. We arrange the vehicle according to the number of guests and amount of luggage, so your transfer is not shared with other travellers.
🏨 Check-in and get comfortable
Room access follows the hotel's standard check-in time. Early check-in is not included and depends on availability. The reception team can advise about luggage storage if you arrive before your room is ready.
🌆 Enjoy your first day at leisure
There is no scheduled sightseeing today. Take time to rest, wander through the Old Quarter's traditional trading streets, or find a café around Hoan Kiem Lake. Meals and personal activities are at your own arrangement.
🏍️ 08:00 AM – Meet your CAT team
Your Hanoi motorbike tour begins in the hotel lobby, where you will meet your English-speaking guide and experienced, licensed rider. After a brief introduction and safety instructions, choose between a vintage Minsk motorbike or a Vespa scooter. You will travel as a passenger, so no driving experience is required.
🛵 Explore hidden lanes and local markets
Leave the hotel and follow a route through Hanoi's smaller streets, busy market areas and residential quarters. From the back of your motorbike, observe the rhythm of daily life at close range, from shopkeepers opening for the day to street vendors preparing food and locals moving through the city.
📸 Discover the city's landmarks and neighbourhoods
The ride connects older neighbourhoods with wider city roads and selected landmarks. Depending on the route and local conditions, you may pass through parts of the Old Quarter and French Quarter, see the Ba Dinh area, or enjoy views around West Lake and Truc Bach Lake. There may be opportunities to stop for photographs at suitable locations. This is a street-level sightseeing experience, not an inside visit to museums or monuments.
🍜 Taste authentic Hanoi food and drinks
Enjoy a local food stop featuring traditional Hanoi dishes and drinks, included according to the day's menu. The selection may vary. Please inform CAT of any vegetarian, vegan or other dietary requirements before the tour so we can check the available options.
🚂 Visit the Train Street area
The route may include the Train Street area when local access arrangements allow. Local controls can affect where the group can stop or view the railway, and the passage of a train cannot be guaranteed.
🏨 Around 12:00 PM – Return to the hotel
Your rider and guide will bring you back to Hanoi Plaza Suite Hotel, the same place as the morning pick-up. The motorbike experience ends here, leaving the afternoon and evening free for your own plans.
☕ Breakfast and hotel check-out
After breakfast and your second night in Hanoi, check out of Hanoi Plaza Suite Hotel by the hotel's standard check-out time.
