5.00This was the best tour experience we had while travelling Vietnam. We did the walking tour with Chris. Chris is an excellent tour guide, so full of knowledge, so personable and thoughtful with every step. This tour not only an insight into Hanoi’s history but its folklore, culture and food. We learnt a lot and got to experience an egg coffee making workshop and try some local fruit. We had a great time under the care of Chris and I would recommend ever to do this tour when in Hanoi.
Wonderful food and walking tour

5.00We did two tours with Chris, one a walking tour and the other a nighttime food tour. Chris was very informative and friendly and gave us some tips and recommendations to help make our stay here more special. We would highly recommend these tours with Chris.

5.00I truly enjoyed the walk through the Old Quarter with Chris. He made the tour engaging, shared fascinating insights, and created a very relaxed atmosphere. A highlight was his demonstration of the famous egg coffee — such a fun and unique touch! Chris is incredibly knowledgeable. He also shared great dining suggestions. A fantastic experience all around!

5.00Chris is a remarkable person, both professionally and personally. I joined him for a walking tour around the Old Quarter, and later ended up doing a private 1:1 tour through some of Hanoi’s more unexplored neighbourhoods. Both tours were extremely high quality and clearly tailored to what I wanted to see. Chris’s personal stories and insights made the experience feel authentic, relatable, and refreshingly unique. It also helps that he has travelled extensively around the world, which allows him to compare and contrast cultures in a really thoughtful way. He comes with my highest recommendation — without a doubt, Chris is the best guide in Hanoi.
Memorable food and bike ride through Hanoi

5.00We did the walking French quarter tour with Chris and it was spectacular! Chris is a tour guide/chef and extremely knowledgeable of this city and food culture. He added some touches of his own to the tour with a true egg coffee making demonstration and some behind the scenes local sites. If we had had more time, we would have done the Hanoi walking food tour with him. All that to say, this tour is highly recommended. Thank you chris

5.00Chris was so knowledgeable and kind. He had expert knowledge of Vietnam’s history and took us through various streets and the major marketplace. He treated us with a surprise demonstration of his recipe for egg coffee, salt coffee, and hot chocolate and was very accommodating for our diet restrictions. So delicious! This walking tour is a must, especially with Chris!
