Entertaining and informative evening - The street food experience was delightful. Our guide Lanh was really knowledgeable and took us to some interesting street food places. We sampled food we would never have tried ourselves. What's more we knew the food was safe because it was recommended by a local.

Fun and interesting tour! - Had a great time on the food tour. On the day I made the tour booking, my guide Tran Thi Hoa (Anna), had reached out to see if I had any preferences or request so she can personalize the tour. During the tour, the food was great and was what I was looking for. However, what was even better was Anna sharing about Vietnam and Hanoi as well as her recommendations and personal stories to give me a better understanding of the history and local culture. Really impressed by Anna's knowledge, professionalism and friendliness. Keep up the good work!

Savouring the delights of Hanoi's Old Quarter - Our tour guide, Hera, was a delightful young lady. She was extremely friendly and informative and showed us all the sights of Hanoi's Old Quarter. The food at the restaurant she took us to was delicious. I would recommend anyone coming to Hanoi to do the food tour with Hera.

Nice experience and good food - We got a fantastic tour of Ha Noi with tasty snacks from Vietnam. We tasted one dish and had dessert. Furthermore, we learned a lot about Vietnam because our tour guide knew a lot. Furthermore, she was also very talkative and managed to keep the conversation going! We expected a bit more snacks at the beginning, we walked for a long time, but after dessert we were still pretty full. In any case, we are satisfied. Afterwards we were also asked if we wanted to try more so if you want to eat more this is also possible. For a free tour (paid only food from yourself and the tour guide) this is definitely a nice experience! Furthermore, it is very nice to be accompanied by a local!
