\n| 9 and over<\/td>\n | Adult price<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n Include every child in your booking, with their ages, even if they travel free. Every child gets their own child seat in the jeep, so the guide needs to know exactly who is coming and how old they are. On some tours the child rate does not change how the tour works \u2013 but on two-wheeled tours, age matters a lot (see below).<\/p>\n Which tours suit families<\/h2>\nEvery Hanoi jeep tour except the full-day Ba Vi trip (easy to moderate), and every food tour, is rated easy<\/strong>. These are the styles we suggest first for families:<\/p>\n\n\n\n| Tour<\/th>\n | Why it works for families<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n | \n\n| 2-hour Jeep City Highlights<\/a><\/td>\n | Short enough for young attention spans. Passes the landmarks with photo stops rather than going inside. Families and small groups are on our “best for” list. Minimum 2 guests per booking.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Half-day Jeep City Tour with local food<\/td>\n | The whole city in one go, with Bun Cha, egg coffee and lotus tea included. Everyone stays together in one vehicle.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Bat Trang Pottery jeep tour<\/a><\/td>\n | Hands-on: children make their own piece in a pottery workshop. Some pieces need firing and cannot be taken the same day; your guide explains the options.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Co Loa Citadel countryside jeep tour<\/td>\n | Rural Vietnam and history, away from city traffic. Lotus flowers bloom mainly from May to August.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Jeep Street Food & Culture Tour<\/td>\n | Kids who like trying things love it. Tell us about allergies or picky eaters when booking.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Sapa jeep tours<\/td>\n | Only a short, easy walk between villages on the Muong Hoa Valley tour; the jeep covers the rest.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n Families with older children who are happy on two wheels often enjoy the Green Sisters female-rider tours too \u2013 mother-and-daughter trips are on the list of who those tours suit best.<\/p>\n Scooter and motorbike tours with young children<\/h2>\nOn all scooter and motorbike tours, every guest rides with their own rider \u2013 children included<\/strong>. A child rides their own motorbike with a professional rider. A child who is too small to sit alone rides on the parent’s lap, held by the parent. For planning:<\/p>\n\n- Tell us every child’s age when you book<\/strong>, so we can arrange a rider for each child who rides alone.<\/li>\n
- Helmets are provided, but if you have a child’s helmet that fits well, ask us whether to bring it.<\/li>\n
- For toddlers, a jeep tour is often the most comfortable choice \u2013 every child gets their own child seat, in Hanoi and in Sapa.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n On our tours:<\/strong> our jeeps have child seats, and every child gets their own seat. Just include all children and their ages in your booking.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nTeenagers: ATV and e-bike tours<\/h2>\nThe ATV tour<\/a> lists families with teenagers among the people it suits best. Only confident drivers who follow the guide’s instructions take the wheel; children ride as passengers with an adult. Tell us everyone’s ages when you book. The tour is rated moderate and runs off-road in an eco-area, so closed shoes and clothes that can get dusty are a must.<\/p>\nOn the self-ride e-bike tours the minimum age is 5, and each rider should be comfortable on a normal bicycle with pedal assistance. A child under 5 can still come along, seated in the middle with a parent or relative. Tell us your children’s ages and riding experience when you book so we can arrange it.<\/p>\n Seniors and travellers with limited mobility<\/h2>\nMost of our tours keep walking to a minimum. Here is how the main styles compare, using the difficulty rating on each tour:<\/p>\n \n\n\n| Tour style<\/th>\n | Difficulty<\/th>\n | What to know<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n | \n\n| Hanoi jeep city and food tours<\/td>\n | Easy<\/td>\n | Mostly seated in the jeep, with short walks at stops. You get in and out of the jeep at each stop.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Ba Vi & Duong Lam full day<\/td>\n | Easy to moderate<\/td>\n | 8 hours, with short walks in the park and village. About 1.5\u20132 hours’ drive each way.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Scooter and female-rider tours<\/td>\n | Easy<\/td>\n | You sit as a passenger. Tell us about back or neck problems first.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Sapa full-day jeep<\/td>\n | Easy<\/td>\n | Most of the day in the jeep with frequent stops; it suits most ages.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Sapa full-day motorbike<\/td>\n | Easy to moderate<\/td>\n | A long day on a motorbike; the jeep may suit you better.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| ATV<\/td>\n | Moderate<\/td>\n | Self-drive off-road.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n If you use a walking aid, have limited mobility or need a wheelchair, message us before booking and describe what you need \u2013 including getting in and out of a vintage jeep several times. We will tell you honestly which tour works, and whether a private tour with a slower pace would help.<\/p>\n Why a private tour often suits families best<\/h2>\nMost tours can be booked as a group tour or a private tour. On the group tour you may share with a few other travellers. The private tour is just for your party, with your own guide and vehicle, and the timing can be adapted to you<\/strong>. For families that usually means:<\/p>\n\n- stops when a child needs the toilet, a snack or a run-around,<\/li>\n
- no worries about a toddler’s mood affecting strangers,<\/li>\n
- a start time that fits around naps (within the times we can confirm), and<\/li>\n
- a guide who can pitch the stories at your children.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
In Sapa, each jeep is private for one booking anyway, carrying 2\u20136 guests with its own driver and guide.<\/p>\n Multi-generation groups<\/h3>\nTravelling with grandparents, parents and children together? The jeep is usually the easiest way to keep everyone in one place: each jeep seats up to six guests, and in Sapa larger groups travel in several jeeps together (for Hanoi, message us). On scooter tours everyone rides with their own rider in a small convoy, with each child on their own motorbike with a rider, or on a parent’s lap if they are too small to sit alone. If part of your group wants adventure and part wants comfort, consider booking two different tours on the same day rather than forcing one compromise; our team can help you plan it.<\/p>\n Timing the day: heat, naps and long days<\/h2>\nHanoi summers are hot. Long-term averages for central Hanoi put daytime highs at around 33\u201335 \u00b0C from May to August, and the official tourism site advises staying hydrated and using sunscreen in the hot season. Some practical choices:<\/p>\n \n- Go early.<\/strong> Many tours leave at 08:00 (Bat Trang at 07:30). Children are fresher and the streets are cooler.<\/li>\n
- Or go late.<\/strong> Departures at 17:00 or 18:00 avoid the midday heat, and evening food tours end with a meal \u2013 handy for bedtime.<\/li>\n
- Think twice about early-afternoon starts in summer.<\/strong> The 12:30 and 13:00 departures suit a family that naps in the morning, but they fall in the hottest part of the day.<\/li>\n
- Choose short over long.<\/strong> The 2-hour city tours are a better first taste than a full day.<\/li>\n
- Keep the full-day tours<\/strong> (Ba Vi, Sapa full-day) for children who travel well in a vehicle.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Departure times differ by tour \u2013 check the tour page. For seasons and month-by-month detail see Hanoi weather by month<\/a>.<\/p>\nFamily checklist<\/h2>\n\n- All children and their ages entered in the booking<\/li>\n
- Allergies and dietary needs noted when booking<\/li>\n
- Message sent first if you need mobility help<\/li>\n
- Bottled water (included on many tours), sunscreen, insect repellent and hats for stops<\/li>\n
- Snacks for fussy eaters \u2013 not every dish suits small children<\/li>\n
- Wipes and hand sanitiser for street-food stops<\/li>\n
- A light layer for winter mornings and air-conditioned caf\u00e9s<\/li>\n
- Personal travel insurance with medical cover for everyone, for the whole trip (insurance is included on our tours)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\n On our tours:<\/strong> guides are used to children asking a hundred questions. If your child has a special interest \u2013 trains, animals, history, pottery \u2013 tell us when you book and we will pass it on.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Quels circuits sont adapt\u00e9s aux enfants, aux familles et aux seniors : tarifs enfants, si\u00e8ges auto en Jeep, r\u00e8gles d’\u00e2ge pour les deux-roues, mobilit\u00e9 et rythme de la journ\u00e9e.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"parent":367,"menu_order":4,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-371","page","type-page","status-publish"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ecotripasia.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/371","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ecotripasia.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ecotripasia.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ecotripasia.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=371"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/ecotripasia.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/371\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":396,"href":"https:\/\/ecotripasia.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/371\/revisions\/396"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ecotripasia.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/367"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ecotripasia.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=371"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}} | | |
