OVERVIEW

We'll take you for a night out into 'our Hanoi'. See a water puppet performance before enjoying a tantalizing meal at one of Hanoi's best restaurants followed by a stop at a cute, French inspired ice cream parlor for a desert. After you culinary journey sample the city's nightlife or if there is a performance taking place (subject to availability and optional extra), the Hanoi Opera House.

PROGRAM DETAILS

Depart in the early evening for Hanoi's Hoan Kiem Lake where the Water Puppet Theatre is situated. This is a uniquely northern Vietnamese art form depicting scenes from rural life and episodes of national history. Following the show stroll through the historic Old Quarter to Green Tangerine, a restaurant set in a lovingly restored 1928 colonial villa in the center of the Old Quarter offering a menu of rich, delicious French / Vietnamese fare. After your meal walk around Hoan Kiem Lake (your vehicle will be available at all times) to a cute French inspired ice cream parlor for desert. If you want to hit Hanoi's nightspots ask your guide for suggestions (drinks on own account). At the end of the evening depart back to your hotel. If you are fortunate there may be a performance at the Hanoi Opera House. Dating back to more than a hundred years, Hanoi Opera House is perhaps the grandest in all Indochina. Be fortune enough to see a live performance at this majestic structure whilst you are here*.
