Hi Mike
Sorry for the late reply, as I was busy till now. Well following are some comments for your kind perusal.
1. Lucky Hotel – I remember requesting for a 3-Star hotel, but unfortunately you’ve got a 2-star for me. It is quite disappointed especially on the cleanliness. This is the negative point. Nevertheless, the accessibility to Hon Kiem Lake and Old Quarters various shopping area is quite convenient. This is the plus point. [Am I getting a rebate for 2-star instead of 3-star Hotel?? Hehe!!
2. Travel Itinerary – This is the perfect itinerary. We totally enjoy all of it. But it seems that Hanoi is normally closed by 8pm onwards. So nothing much to shop about after we finish our itinerary. But this a general business operation hour of Hanoi and nothing that we can complain about. Nevertheless a short walk to Hon Kiem Lake at night is really fascinating and relaxing.
3. Tour Guide – Mr Binh is an extremely nice man. Nothing much to comment on him except for perfect tour guide service. One little disadvantage is his English is not as fluent and we are having a little difficulty in understanding him. I did notice that other tour guide has a very fluent, even English accent, English. Other than this, Mr Binh is a perfect guide in terms of service.
4. Driver – He is extremely kind and did notice that his work is not easy at all, especially snarling thru the busy Hanoi streets. Very careful and polite driver
5. Halong Bay, Tam Coc & Van Phuc is really unforgettable place to visit. In fact, I am organizing another trip to visit Halong Bay again somewhere in December. We were planning to stay longer overnight at Junk probably 4D3N at Bai Tho Junk 89 (very new & nice & comfortable). Other than that, we are also planning to visit Sapa this time round & Hue if possible. Please advise number of days require for approximate such itinerary
That’s all for now and we are looking forward to see you again in December.
Bye
Wilson Lam
