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.

Great tour. So many hidden gems we would never have found. Jennifer was fabulous, we enjoyed coffee and explored the city at the same time.

I recently took a private coffee tour with my buddy, guided by Jen (Jenifer), and it was fantastic. Right from the start, Jen impressed us with her knowledge and her excellent English (complete with an Aussie/Singaporean accent). She showed us how to spot truly local coffee places—rather than just the “Instagrammable” spots I’m used to in LA—by taking us through hidden alleys and upstairs corners I would’ve never found on my own. Not a single tourist was in sight at any of our stops, which made the whole experience feel incredibly authentic. If you’re looking for a genuine coffee adventure that goes beyond the typical tourist traps, I highly recommend this tour.

Linh is an awesome guide. Knowledgeable, friendly and accommodative. Throughout our week stay in hanoi, we had the best coffee during this 2 hour tour and that is saying much in a place like Hanoi. From the ancient to the modern ages of vietnamese coffee, he not only introduced good coffee to us, but an increased sense of appreciation. Just a tip, if you are not used to caffeine, you might want to share with your partner because it is alot of very strong coffee. Definitely recommend this tour.

I loved visiting the different cafes and trying the local and traditional coffee drinks! My tour guide Hà was super friendly and provided some history and background of each place we visited. I highly recommend this tour for coffee lovers or anyone looking to explore the coffee scene in Hanoi! Thank you Hà!

We had a great time on the Hanoi Secret Coffee Tour. Daniel and Rosie introduced us a bunch of amazing Vietnamese coffees in some great shops. They were very knowledgeable about the drinks, but also shared a ton about the history of Hanoi which was a lot of fun. We can only drink so much coffee at once and 5 drinks / 4 locations was PLENTY, but Daniel and Rosie also had a a bunch of recommendations of other coffee shops to check out. I highly recommend this tour!
