Sandy was great. Taught us a lot about the different foods and explained each dish to us. I chose to eat some snails as one of my dishes and it was delicious. layers of flavor. Very different from any escargot that I have eaten. Her spoke English well so she was able to answer all the question we had with ease. Such a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend this to anyone. She accommodates the adventure according to your preferences.

Had a great evening out on the seafood food tour with Long last week. Long was friendly and a great conversationlist, and I really enjoyed all the insights he had on the travel and food scene in Vietnam. The food tastings I had were great too- the highlight for me personally was the bbq seafood roadside stall. Delicious!

Highly recommended! Our tour guide (Sunflower) made this an exceptional experience. She speaks an excellent English and shared so many tips on food and history of Hanoi. She took us for three hours tour around the old quarter and we went to places we would never have visited if we were alone! I recommend doing this tour as early as possible during your trip to Hanoi. Also, don’t be afraid of trying the dishes that are offered to you during this tour as all were delicious! After the tour, sunflower shared the list of dishes and places we have visited. The Egg coffee was amazing!

We spent a wonderful evening walking through the streets of the old quarter tasting 7 dishes and an unplanned stop for Bia Hoi (which I had enquired about and was put into the schedule! Much appreciated). The food was amazing and the walking made it much more comfortable to manage all of the dishes. Sunflower was a friendly, informative and great guide with s real passion for food. The trip, on our first day of 7 in Vietnam had made us much more confident to eat at the local stalls. Wonderful tour - would highly recommend
