<\/span><\/h2>\nAt the airport in Hanoi we were already received at the exit by our German-speaking Gebeco tour guide. Until the group was full, we got cash at the ATM in the meantime. For most ATMs, you can withdraw a maximum of 2 million dong (1 euro = approx. 25,000 dong) in a withdrawal process. The fees are about 20,000 to 25,000 dong per withdrawal. <\/p>\n
After a short time our tour group was complete and it was possible to start. Our group consisted of a total of 26 people and was therefore rather a larger group. On average, there are 19 people on the trip, but at least 15. The group consisted of 7 couples and 12 solo travellers aged between mid-20s and mid-60s. <\/p>\n
When all the luggage was invited to our coach, it could start around 8 o’clock. It took us about 50 minutes to get from Hanoi Airport to the city centre. It didn’t take long for it to rain really hard. But fortunately the rain was short-lived, so that some time later the sky cleared again \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
The first port of call was our Hotel Thang Long Espana<\/span><\/a> , where we stayed for one night. We couldn’t get to our room at the time, but at least we were able to store our luggage. We had a spacious twin room on the first floor, which we liked very much. Unfortunately, however, it was a bit bright, as the connecting door to the adjoining room was very thin and you could hear, for example, the guests in the room next door. Since the breakfast restaurant is also located on the first floor, noises such as clapping plates, chairs, etc. could already be heard in the morning from 5.30 a.m. But since we had to get up early anyway, it didn’t bother us so much. We liked the breakfast very much. There was a live cooking station as well as a good selection of hot dishes and cold things (e.g. fresh vegetables, salad, fruit, ham, sausage) so that we could start the day well strengthened.<\/p>\n
