Excellent experience with so much insight! - The tour was wonderful! I am traveling alone and was not able to join a group tour so I enjoyed a private tour with Milton. He told me about the history of the Old Quarter and helped me to appreciate the particular ways each vendor cooked their food. I could have gone to all those same places without him but I would have missed the context of learning more about those vendors. I was able to enjoy all the food without fear of getting sick because Beyond Vietnam does their research ahead of time to make sure the vendors use hygienic practices. I really appreciated this tour and I would recommend it to anyone!

Best experience to start your Vietnam trip! - We took the tour with Linh just one day after we had arrived in Hanoi. It was the best start to a wonderful trip in Vietnam. Linh was so nice and took us (two adults, two teenagers) to so many great places in Hanoi we would have never found without her. The food we tried was special and delicious, even our daughters tried everything, Linh showed us. The tour exceeded our expectations by far! After 4 weeks in Vietnam, we went back to some of the places in Hanoi thanks to the list Linh sent us. We were really happy that we started our trip by trying so many things we did not know before. Thank you for a wonderful evening, Linh!

Experience the food like a local! - What a fabulous night with the charming Linh in Hanoi - we’ve been to Vietnam 5 times and still found new and fabulous food experiences with Linh! She personalized our tour from the start and made sure we had a new and delicious experience. Her local knowledge of the old town was exceptional, we highly recommend this tour!

Authentic Hanoi Food Tour! - We had an excellent time during our food tour with Linh - she is very personable and knowledgeable about the cuisine and history of Hanoi. We were able to try dishes that we would not have known to try as foreigners - they were all tasty dishes and it was great to learn about the different ingredients and history of each one. We felt well cared for, and we were not forced to eat anything that we did not want to. A great tour all round! We would definitely recommend it to others. Thank you 😁👍🏾

Immerse Yourself in the Food and Culture the local way! - Scheduled a last minute tour with Beyond Vietnam and they were so responsive and gracious to accommodate. Sara was our tour guide and she did an excellent job with the exploration of food, the local way. The stories she shared and the restaurant choices allowed us to immerse ourselves in the Hanioan culture! We had super delicious food and drink and a lot of it! This was a great tour; my family and I had excellent time with Sara as if we were hanging with a longtime friend.
