Everything was well-organized, and the guide was super friendly and knowledgeable about local dishes. We stopped at several small spots I would never have found on my own, and every bite felt like a little surprise. My favorite part was trying the street food—simple but full of flavor. Each place had its own charm, and the portions were just right so I could taste a bit of everything without feeling too full. I also loved how the guide shared small stories about the area; it made the whole experience feel more personal. Overall, it was a really enjoyable tour. If you want something relaxed, delicious, and worth your time, I definitely recommend giving it a try.
A perfect mix of food and culture

This wasn’t just a food tour; it was a cultural adventure. Our guide shared stories about Hanoi’s history, architecture, and people while leading us from one hidden eatery to another. The food was incredible — especially the banh mi and egg coffee! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to experience Hanoi like a local.
