About Totally Hanoi

Totally Hanoi is a focused, independent travel guide covering Hanoi, Vietnam — nothing else. We think a city this rich in history, food and neighbourhood character deserves more than a chapter in a country-wide guidebook.

What we cover

Every corner of a Hanoi trip: the Old Quarter and beyond, street food and where to eat it, day trips out to Ha Long Bay and the northern mountains, where to stay by neighbourhood, and the practical planning details — visas, money, getting around — that actually decide how smooth a trip feels.

How we approach content

We aim to be specific and honest, including telling you when something isn't worth your time, not just listing everything positively. Practical details like prices, hours and visa rules change — where accuracy really matters, we point you to verify against current official sources rather than guessing.

Where we're headed

The goal is simple: stay the most complete, most current guide to this city online — genuinely useful, specific pages, not filler, and not the same generic advice copy-pasted across a dozen other travel sites — in as many languages as we can properly support.
