4.00Guide Mai was very knowledgeable and a great host. The food was a great introduction. I would recommend doing this tour early in your trip. The desert was my favourite and to die for.
Will recommend to everyone I know going to Vietnam

5.00⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Unforgettable Vietnam Food Tour Experience! We absolutely loved our Vietnam Food Tour – Private Walking Tour! Our guide, Mai, was incredible, so knowledgeable, warm, and full of fascinating insights about both the food and local culture. The food selection was super diverse and every stop was better than the last. Tip: Go hungry, there’s a lot of food, and every stop is worth it! We left feeling educated, inspired to expand our palate, and completely satisfied (and full!). This was one of the best experiences of our trip, and we’ll 100% be doing it again! Highly recommend to anyone visiting Vietnam.
Amazing

5.00Excellent. Mai was very friendly and welcoming. She was interested in learning about you, where you lived, had you been to Vietnam before. She was very knowledgeable about the city and took us to places off the beaten track where we would never have found if we went looking for them on our own. She introduced us to authentic Vietnamese food and we tried , and enjoyed, eating food we never would have eaten otherwise. The food was delicious.
