Hanoi is one of the most popular city destinations in South East Asia for backpackers to visit, however it can become overwhelming to see everything as the city never sleeps! We found the best way to make the most of our stay in Hanoi is by creating a checklist, including places to visit in Hanoi.
Compiling our checklist of Hanoi things to do doesn’t just allow us to see everything the city has to offer, but also tailors it to what we enjoy and the activities we are most interested in. We could also plan our days dependant on everything we wanted to see and where each activity was in terms of location. If you need help planning your trip, check this post here!
When travelling, you usually have a limited time in each place so it’s best to have a rough guide to hand so you can get the most out of your stay.
So, we did the research and came up with the best experiences in Hanoi and have provided it for you to see below!

Best place to stay in Hanoi?
For your trip to Hanoi, we would highly recommend this hostel here. This was one of the best hostels we stayed in within Southeast Asia, for it’s low price, but high quality features. It was extremely spacious and clean, with a lot of personal space and great attention to detail. Everyone was so friendly, and the location was central- perfect for exploring!
