Xin Chao! It's Nam (David ) from Hanoi, Vietnam. I was born and raised in Hanoi and with over 12 years experience as a professional tour guide, I can help make your stay in Vietnam comfortable and trouble-free whilst feeling like you are traveling with a friend.

It's my honor to be your reliable travel companion during your stay in Vietnam, give you a deeper understandings about Vietnamese local life, history, culture, food and more
I specialized in providing private tours in the Northern region of Vietnam such as : Hanoi, Halong Bay, Ninh Binh, Mai Chau, Sapa, Nam Dinh

In 2022, I became a tour guide who took care of my clients throughout Vietnam. I am one of the very few guides in Vietnam who have done the trips with my own guests, not working for other tour businesses, which makes me stand out from others.

I could provide you with authentic travel advices that you won't get it in the guidebooks. So that you could pick me as the guide for the WHOLE Vietnam trip. I will take care of you from the start to the finish, from the morning to the evening, even escort you for dinner which very tour business and guides can offer you unless your dinner is included in the tour price.

All of my reviews are authentic, none of them are make-up review

MY TRAVEL EXPERIENCES
I have done a grand Vietnam trip in 2017 which took me to 53 of all 64 provinces in Vietnam and also visited destinations in Laos, Cambodia and Thailand many times over the past few years; blessed me with several lifetimes worth of experiences and discoveries about others and myself.

Travel taught me to appreciate the subtle nuances of life, the minute details, and to realize that there is no one way to live, nor to understand the workings of the universe.

Many people that have experienced Vietnam private tours with me have said that I'm a friendly and happy character which is why they call me "Nam Smile".

I am working hard to bring more value to a real visitor to Vietnam and PICK ME as your local guide in Vietnam. I'll make a memorable Vietnam vacation.
Warmest regards,
David
