Culinary Heaven With Knowledge Hosts - I took a solo food tour with guide Audrey with Ella Tour Company and it was a highlight of my trip to Hanoi. We had a great conversation and I learned a lot about Hanoi from Audrey as she guided us weaving through the heavy traffic of Hanoi to the city’s top culinary spots. We went to from a vibrant street food scenes to cozy cafes and noodle shops. The dry chicken pho and egg coffee were exceptionally good! Audrey’s passion for Vietnamese cuisine and her delightful conversations made each moment enjoyable. I’d definitely do this tour again for its authentic taste of Hanoi!

Best food tour so far! - I'm not going to focus too much on the food, because whether you walk around town sampling snacks or join any food tour, you'll get to try a everything. What made this tour stand out was Ella's energy, humor, and incredibly helpful attitude. It felt like being part of an entertaining show, with the food as an amazing bonus. I had an unforgettable time—everyone in the group was constantly smiling and laughing. The whole experience just felt fantastic! What I especially appreciated was how Ella took my food restrictions into account. She not only ensured I got meals that suited me but also taught me how to order confidently on my own for the future. Would I do this again? Absolutely, 100% yes! I'll be sending all my friends on this tour—it's a must-do when visiting Hanoi! Thank you, Ella, for such a fun and memorable time! You're an awesome human being! Wishing you all the best!

Amazing food tour in Ha Noi - Ella was an exceptional guide. She takes pride in her profession. Everything was explained in great detail. Our group spoke many languages and she made everyone feel welcome and included. We even got to make our own rolls under her guidance. The food choices were excellent and a perfect representation of Ha Noi. I highly recommend.
