5.00We had a great time on our tour with Viet. We discovered lots of unknown and delicious places to eat in Hanoi. The tour was well worth it and I appreciated Viet’s flexibility with us. Vietnam certainly has great food. A wonderful experience.

5.00This food tour is a must-do in Hanoi! Our guide Patrick helped us navigate the streets and took us to places where locals eat and explained the history behind the Vietnamese street food culture and the gastronomy. We also strolled through the local wet market. He also pointed out a few monuments along the way. There was so much food to try that by the middle of the tour, we were begging for half portions! You must come very very hungry for this tour and wear comfortable footwear.
Awesome experience - Lucky is great!

5.00Kai was my guide on a small group where we went to 6 different local street food restaurants. We had local beer with our food - draft and cans. The food was fantastic and the beer was great also. Kai was extremely knowledgeable and gave us plenty of information about the food, the area and the history of Hanoi. Very highly recommend Kai!
