When to Visit

The best time to visit Hanoi is during the spring (March to April) or autumn (September to November) when the weather is pleasant and the skies are clear. These periods offer mild temperatures, making it easier to explore the city’s attractions. Summer (May to August) can be hot and humid, with occasional rain showers, while winter (December to February) brings cooler temperatures, averaging 15°C to 20°C. If you’re planning to visit in autumn, you’ll be greeted with the charming sight of golden leaves and a festive atmosphere as the city celebrates the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Getting Around

Navigating Hanoi is relatively straightforward. The Old Quarter is best explored on foot or by bicycle to fully immerse yourself in its vibrant street life. For longer distances, taxis and ride-hailing apps like Grab are affordable and convenient. Cyclo rides offer a unique way to tour the city’s historic streets, while buses provide a budget-friendly option for reaching outer districts. Motorbike rentals are popular, but traffic can be chaotic, so caution is advised.

Traveler Tips

To make the most of your visit to Hanoi, dress comfortably for walking and bring a good pair of shoes. Carry small change for street food and market purchases, as cash is preferred. When dining, don’t miss local delicacies like pho, bun cha, and egg coffee. Always negotiate prices at markets and with cyclo drivers. For a day trip, consider exploring nearby attractions like the stunning Halong Bay or the ancient village of Duong Lam. Lastly, pack light layers to adjust to Hanoi’s fluctuating weather, and be prepared to embrace the city’s dynamic energy.
