You will enjoy 3 traditional cakes 1. Beo Cake`s Hue is a rice flour cake that is placed into an aluminum blister or a small cupand then steamed.

5.00It was a pleasant night walking around the heart of Hue’s street food joints. Our tour guide, Bem, was the “architect” of our food adventure. Although there were only two of us, it felt like a full group tour — and it was excellent! The small size made it even more personal, and Bem was truly the one who made it amazing. She was so knowledgeable about both the food and the city, introducing us to authentic local flavors while sharing fascinating culture and history. Begin with a flavor and tasty "Salt Coffee" the unique part of Hue' local culture. Hue people create it by using their locally produced salt turning a simple ingredient into a famous name drink for the city. After enjoying salty coffee we continued our stroll to try a combo of Hue specialties such as banh beo-banh nam-banh bot loc and more. We also learned how each of them to pairs with different type of fish sauce." then next to next another food joints. This was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Hue, and we will definitely come back again in the future!

5.00An excellent and delicious tour! Bem was my guide and her English was excellent. She taught me not only about the food but about the history and culture of Hue. We stopped at a variety of different restaurants and (even though I’ve been in Vietnam for 3 weeks) all the food we tried was new to me and special to Hue. Great value for money. Bem explained to me that she trains and hires woman guides to help empower this community. I highly recommend you take this tour!

5.00So much laughter and fun, Bem meet us on time at the hotel, we were immediately out on the streets and alley ways of Hue. We dinesd like locals sitting on the street or in the restaurant sampling a local specialty.. we heard not only stories of Vietnam but the dishes and what made them special. As a local Bem knower the shop owners. At the coffee shop where salt coffee was invented. She was greeted with smiles and a hug because she had been out of town for a while. The visit to the coffee shop would have been worth the price of admission the salt coffee was absolutely delicious and I had the Vietnamese coffee over ice Which I loved! Don’t miss the crab soup oh my goodness that was delicious! At the end of our tour, Bem walked us a good ways out of her way to get us to the meeting point for our dragon boat! What a wonderful experience, at the end, we felt like we were saying goodbye to an old friend!
Great value and delicious

5.00This is one of several tours I’ve taken with Hue Local Tours. This tour was designed so the participant was exposed to various local specialties. The guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. The feelinf one gets from the experience is that an evening has been spent with an old friend rather than a prepackaged tour. The food choices were excellent and gave a feel for the uniqueness of Hue cuisine. Definately a bargain for the cost. I would highly recommend Hue Local Tours as a resource to more fully understand the Hue local culture.
