Get ready to explore the heart of Vietnam’s rich coffee culture on this unique Hanoi coffee tour — a walking adventure through the city's most charming, hidden gems. “A Taste of Hanoi” takes you off the beaten path to four carefully selected hidden cafes in Hanoi, including the legendary spot that put Vietnamese egg coffee on the map.
Led by a passionate, professional local guide, you’ll start your journey in the bustling Old Quarter. Along the way, you’ll learn about the fascinating history of coffee in Vietnam, from its French colonial roots to the creative, uniquely Hanoian coffee styles locals enjoy today — like coconut coffee, salt coffee, and of course, the iconic egg coffee.
This isn’t just a tasting tour — it’s a cultural deep-dive. Your guide is there to answer all your questions, share stories, and introduce you to the soul of Vietnam’s coffee culture, one cup at a time.

5.00Lovely tour with Jennifer! Good mix of cafes and great coffee. Appreciated that we visited both old quarter and french quarter shops, and that many of the shops would have been quite hard to spot if not for the tour. Jennifer also gave great insight into Hanoi in general. Recommend!

From getting local insight to the cafe scene to getting additional local recommendations for food and drink, Jennifer went above and beyond her role as our tour guide.

5.00We had a wonderful experience on the coffee tour with our guide Ha. We went to four different locations and tried a variety of local coffee. Each place had a unique experience and coffee to offer. The tour lasted about two hours and was incredibly informative as well as comfortable.

5.00This was one of the best tours I have ever been on. My tour guide Ha was absolutely brilliant. He knew everything about the coffee itself, history of Hanoi and honestly just life and stories of Vietnam. I felt like I spent the day hanging out with an old friend. Can't wait to come back and book another tour with him! Definitely eat breakfast before coming as you will be bouncing off the walls. The coffee places were all unique and off the beaten track and you definitely wouldn't just find them on your own.

5.00I did the coffee tour with Ha and it was incredible! He was a fantastic guide and did a wonderful job of customizing the experience. We visited several interesting family-run cafes and tried drinks I’d never heard of before but were unique to Vietnam. The cafes had zero tourists, and I truly saw a very interesting slice of Hanoi and coffee culture. Ha was very thoughtful and did everything he could to provide me with the best experience possible. I very highly recommend both the tour and working with Ha, the BEST ever!

5.00We booked this tour and they were so quick and receptive to us. The whole experience was amazing, from start to finish. We learnt everything about coffee from North to South Vietnam. I am not a coffee drinker normally but this was incredible. Though I didn't blink for 15 minutes haha I joke. Go and book it
