# Hanoi On the Tracks Photo Tour

In our comparison: #5 of 7 in Photography Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

On this photo tour you’ll experience and photograph daily life along Hanoi's urban railway, including the rush and adrenaline of capturing the morning train flying through “train street”, a narrow residential alleyway. We’ll also explore a bustling early morning market, some colorful backstreets and the activities around the inner city residential lakes, all of which provide fantastic opportunities for portraiture and some very unique street photography.
