Immersive walk around the old town

Chris_W, Jul 2026
-a lot of food stops, some on side of streets some in restaurants. - a lot of walking around the old town, maybe no preset path . Didn’t really follow itinerary. We ended up on train street which was a bonus and not what we expected. - more than food. Tina our guide was motivated to do a cultural exchange also, sharing with us about architecture , language, worships, family life, funeral rituals, way of life.

Amazing experience!

Our guide "Apple" was great from beginning to end. She shared super interesting information, stories, and laughs throughout. The variety of food was excellent, and 100% a good introduction to the local food scene in Hanoi.

Through the bustling streets of Hanoi, our guide Helena took us on a journey to discover Vietnamese dishes, some of which were quite surprising. The atmosphere was pleasant, and our guide was very professional and charming. We will definitely be eating “bánh cuôn” again. 🙏 Valérie & David from 🇨🇭

Foodie Fun in Hanoi

Lynn_A, Oct 2025
This was an amazing tour of the behind the scenes of the amazing delicious food that Hanoi has to offer. Almost everything we tried was new and delicious to us. We really enjoyed meeting the other half of our group from Germany! Best of all was our amazing guide Helen (Hang) who made it so much fun! She knew so much about her culture and the origins of each thing we tried. Thank you so much for a great evening!

Hanoi Street Food tour

Tom_S, Jun 2025
Luckily our tour coincided with the Train Street experience. Apple, our tour guide, was very entertaining and knowledgeable. Well worth it.

Delicious Discoveries on Day One

Cecil_C, Jun 2025
This food tour was the perfect way to kick off our first day in Hanoi. It gave us a great introduction to the variety of local dishes we could enjoy during our 5-day stay. All eight food items were incredibly tasty, and our guide, Elena, was pleasant and knowledgeable in explaining each one. My personal favorites were the egg coffee and Bun Cha. It was a delightful and worthwhile experience.

Great tour!

Monica_S, Mar 2025
It was great! Apple was very informative and we got to try a lot of food we would have never experienced on our own. This tour also helped us understand some of the dining norms in Vietnam that helped us the rest of our trip.

Excellent local food tour

Mher_F, Feb 2024
Highly recommend this tour for your first day in Hanoi. The tour is well planned, well chosen local food and well sequenced. All within walking distance but "secret". Even some places are hidden in the narrow alleys. It will give you good sense of directions to navigate the old quarter too. Tour guide ladies were excellent and even left us a note with the places and addresses we visited with more recommendations. Go for it don't think twice 😀
