Hanoikids Voluntary English Club (HNK) is a non-profit organisation in Hanoi, Vietnam. Founded in 2006 by local university students, the club conducts free tours for foreign tourists, ranging from food tours to motorbike tours. It aims to promote cultural exchange while helping its members improve their English communication skills. Prospective members progress through several evaluation rounds and training sessions before leading tours.
Participants from around 20 nations have gone on the tours. Among the people who have taken the tours are foreign dignitaries. Tripadvisor awarded Hanoikids a Certificate of Excellence in 2012. The Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union's Central Committee, in collaboration with the United Nations Volunteers programme, gave the club a National Volunteer Award in 2013.
