What To Expect
Old Quarter
You are the first time Vietnam visitor, you love walking and enjoy food like the local, you just have a free day or half day in Hanoi Old Quarter, this tour is made for you to discover the food, the life and the history of Hanoi Old Quarter. From the first step into the streets we can see locals live, eat, pray, and do business right on the sidewalk. The Old Quarter has been around since the 11th century, when Hanoi (then Thăng Long) became the capital. There were 36 Craft Streets – Each with a Story. Streets named after the goods once made or sold there: Hàng Bạc (Silver), Hàng Gai (Silk), Hàng Mã (Paper Offerings).. Walking through these streets is like walking through chapters of Hanoi's merchant history. The Old Quarter is the heart of Hanoi cuisine: join this walking street food tour we can try: Phở, Bún Chả, Egg Coffee, Sticky Rice, Bánh Mỳ, and more (from 6-7 dishes/drinks) family-run restaurants passed down for generations. Note: The food can be adjusted to meet your own taste.
Hanoi Train Street
Built during the French colonial era (early 1900s), the railway connected Hanoi to the north and south of Vietnam. Train street visit is one of the most exiting experiences in Hanoi, seeing a train passes just inches away from homes and cafes. This once-normal street has become legendary.

Excellent personalized tour

5.00We went on two tours with Trung. He did an excellent job. The first was an evening food tour. There was no shortage of food. He kept asking if we wanted to try. We tried EVERYTHING and it was all delicious. From eggs with ducks inside, worm pancakes, bun cho, coffee, shrimp cakes, spring rolls, fruits, banh mi, beer with peanuts, and beverages. He reserved a spot on train street for us to have a good view. There was so much food I do not even remember everything. The second tour was a city and food tour. Again no shortage of food and Trung was extremely informative. He showed us pagodas, rivers, bridges, statues, parks and city buildings, He taught us about the different neighborhoods and what the name of the streets were before and what they sell today. Trung has a great personality. He is honest and patient. He was with us all day feel. 9am to 5 pm. We walked over 9 miles but could have stopped when ever we wanted. He was excellent and he provided exactly what we were looking for. If you want a personalized experience I would highly suggest you contact Jenny. Thank you Trung!
Highly recommended

5.00Jenny planned the itinerary, accommodation, tours, and transfers for our 15 night trip. She was absolutely incredible and I can't recommend her services highly enough. Jenny made our trip so much less stressful and was happy to work within our budget to ensure we experienced the things we hoped to. Jenny was also helpful when needing to make last minute changes due to flight cancellations at the end of our trip. Jenny was very responsive and helpful throughout the trip. We did the walking food tour in Hanoi with Jenny's husband, Trung - this was one of the highlights of our trip! Thank you, Jenny!
Jenny planned our Vietnam tours, hotels & transfers perfectly—so caring and stress-free. Highly recommended! 🌟

5.00We had an absolutely amazing experience thanks to Jenny! She organised everything for us so perfectly — from our sightseeing tours and hotel stays to smooth airport transfer arrangements across Ho Chi Minh City, Phu Quoc, and Hanoi during our two-week trip. Every detail was flawlessly coordinated with so much thought and professionalism. Jenny made our trip completely stress-free, and her warm, caring nature made us feel truly looked after throughout our stay. It was clear how much effort she put into making sure we had the best possible experience. If you’re looking for someone who plans with care, handles every detail, and genuinely cares about her clients, Jenny on the Blog is the one to choose. Highly recommended! ✨💛✈️

5.00We recently explored Hanoi, Sapa, Halong Bay, and Ninh Binh, and Jenny took care of everything - from hotel bookings to airport transfers and itinerary planning. Her services were top-notch, and we got great value for our money. The walking food tour was a highlight, and I was impressed that the food and coffee were included in the package. We visited amazing spots, and Jenny even gave us a bag of snacks and coffee along the way. I highly recommend her services, and I'd definitely book with her again if I visit Central or South Vietnam.
Jenny's Magical Vietnam Tour - Don't miss it

5.00Jenny's walking tour of street food in Hanoi was MAGICAL. She showed us her city, the markets, the old quarter and train street like she was introducing us to her best friends - it was that warm and personal. We ate 4 amazing meals in the 5 hours we were together, we drank hand-poured salt coffee (delightfully delicious) and enjoyed Hanoi Beers on Train Street (a scary-fun experience!) She shared with us history, culture, religion, politics... and food. Jenny also helped us PLAN our trip, including: Amazing Cooking classes, an Incredible Lantern Boat ride in HoiAn, an Exhilarating Scooter food tour in Saigon, an Enchanting 2-night cruise on Halong Bay, a Mekong Delta floating market and glorious homestay expedition, Incredible Basket boat adventure, Magical Ninh Binh excursion...And she arranged all in-country transfers which was SO VERY HELPFUL Jenny went out of her way to help us get our VISAs expedited, SIM cards activated and money exchanged at the best rates. We couldn't have enjoyed our vacation as well without her help. Thank you, Jenny! We will be back.
Highly recommending Jenny for Vietnam tours

5.00We used Jenny to organize our 10 days itinerary in Vietnam. She setup all the tours and transfers and customized our itinerary based on our needs/wants. Jenny was very responsive and flexible, she runs a small family business company which we liked. Upon arrival to Hanoi, she met us in the hotel with her husband and they did walking food tour for us. It was great introduction to Vietnamese food. Next day her husband and a driver took us to Ninh Binh day tour. It was a good experience even though weather didn’t cooperate we still enjoyed it. Jenny organized very good and knowledgeable guides for us in other places: Da Nang and HCMC. Highly recommended Jenny and her services for Vietnam trip, she was very easy to work with and pleasure to deal with.
Loved every minute

The tours we had we loved and the places we stayed were great. If your going to Vietnam book through Jenny you will not be disappointed. Loved every minute
This is a must do on your first day. We would not have known what to eat, where to get it or how to order without Jenny

5.00Is it your first time in Vietnam? This is a must do on your first day. We would not have known what to eat, where to get it from or even how to order. Doing this your first day just gives you the confidence to know what to do for the rest of your trip. We did our food tour with Jenny from the blog and loved every minute. • We started with Pho for a traditional breakfast, this came with a chopstick lesson • Then an ice cold salt coffee if Strong Coffee! Had a stroll around the old quarter and Jenny showed us where some good shopping was... Then grabbed a takeaway Bahn Mi to eat at Train Street. While we waited for the train I had a refreshing lemon iced tea and Hubby had a Mango Smoothie • 9 . Then when I thought I couldn't eat any more we had Bun Cha • which I think was my favorite. Another lesson Jenny included which was handy for a first timer was how to cross the road, sounds strange but you will understand when you get here To finish off we had what I would call a dessert & but they call egg coffee. I would totally recommend you contact Jenny if you are coming to Hanoi especially if it's your first visit. You can contact her by WhatsApp +84 96 361 13 99 or Facebook We did this tour Oct 2025 and the cost for our 4.5hr private tour including all food and drink was 1.9m vnd that's about $55 AUD each.
Jenny travel took all the hassle out of our touring!
