Savor a leisurely morning cruise back through the bay before disembarking and returning to Hanoi, with time en route for lunch and a little shopping. Re-check into the Sofitel Legend Metropole for a second stay and, after settling back in, take part in a fascinating historical bunker tour beneath the hotel - a rarely seen chapter in the story of a capital city with more than 1,000 years of history. Scenic Freechoice Dining: This evening, your Scenic Freechoice dinner opens three distinct options. Dine in the Metropole's own Angelina Restaurant, where Parisian cafe elegance meets the heart of Hanoi's most storied address. Alternatively, spend the evening as a guest of a local family, sharing home-cooked Vietnamese dishes and stories around their table in a genuinely warm and personal setting. Or, for those drawn to the energy of the streets, jump on the back of a Vespa for a guided foodie tour through Hanoi's Old Quarter, stopping at hidden local haunts for authentic street food with complimentary drinks flowing throughout. ...

A full day to go deeper into Hanoi, beginning with your choice of Scenic Freechoice activity. Scenic Freechoice: Visit the Imperial Citadel of Thang Long and Hoa Lo Prison - the former a sweeping journey through the nation's past, the latter a sobering but essential insight into the prisoners held here across two very different chapters of history. Alternatively, spend the morning at Ho Chi Minh's Mausoleum and Quarter, then wander to the Temple of Literature - founded in 1070 and Vietnam's oldest university - before losing yourself in the narrow laneways of the Old Quarter over a celebrated egg coffee. For those wanting a deeper cultural immersion, head to the ancient village of Bat Trang, a community dedicated to traditional porcelain and pottery. Learn the intricate craft firsthand, hear from a local elder about ancestral worship and spiritual traditions, then prepare and enjoy a hands-on lunch of banh cuon rice pancakes. Scenic Enrich: This evening, a green electric car winds through the Old Quarter to deliver you to your Scenic Enrich experience: a VIP performance of Hanoi's world-famous water puppet theater. Premium seating is reserved exclusively for Scenic guests, and a special backstage pass grants a rare glimpse behind the illusion. ...
