5.00If you’re a food lover looking to truly taste the heart of the city, this walking food tour is a must! From the very first bite of crispy spring rolls to the rich, comforting bowl of pho, every stop was a flavorful journey into local culture and tradition. Our guide was not only knowledgeable about the dishes but also shared fascinating stories about the history behind them and the neighborhoods we explored. We strolled through lively markets, quiet alleys, and street food stalls that we would have never found on our own. The portions were generous, and by the end of the tour, we were both full and happy. This tour was more than just food – it was about connecting with the people, the culture, and the everyday rhythm of the city. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a more authentic and delicious travel experience!
