An awesome experience - We had a fabulous time with Kenny on the tour. The places where we ate were well chosen with variety of Ha Noi's street food. Kenny was a wonderful guide who shared interesting insights about the food and places where we ate. I would definitely recommend to go on this tour.

Great intro to Hanoi cuisine! - We did a street food tour with Jenny, after she and Ha met us in the mid morning. It was a brilliant introduction to all that Hanoi has to offer in the wonderful cuisine of Northern Vietnam, we just had to go back to some of the places we explored, soooo good! Many thanks, cannot recommend this tour highly enough, bon appetite!

Highly Recommended - Excellent tour with Kenny last night. He speaks English really well and knows the good spots. He focused on restaurants that specialise in certain dishes which we really liked. If you didn't want that, just let him know and I'm sure he would have a range of options up his sleeve. Highly recommended.

Good food, good guide. - Guide Kenny is a relaxed one. He speaks good english, hè knows the good spots and people. He steps forwards if needed and goes to the background when not. Very relaxed. The dessert was very very good. You cant find the place by yourself

Amazing private food Tour! - We had an amazing Private food tour with Patrick. It was so amazing, seeing Hanoi through the eyes of locals. Even if this was my third time coming here, it was incredible to try new things I have never ordered before. Patrick was super knowledgeable, and super passionate about food and his culture. This was one of the highlights of our trip. This company is very lucky to have someone like him!

Great Introduction to the Old Quarter and to Hanoi Cuisine - Patrick our guide was funny, cool and very knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour to anyone short on time, or just arriving in Hanoi as it gives you time to sample some of dishes unique to Northern Vietnam, while also having someone to give you great advice. Patrick even helped us plan some of our other days in Hanoi. Our group was small (5 of us in total) which meant we got to see more family run establishments. Also, I have a peanut allergy and Patrick was able to help steer me clear of dishes that were nut free, making some modifications as well. Overall great experience!

Amazing food and guide - We did a private food tour on the first evening we arrived in Vietnam. This was a perfect start of our amazing holiday. We learned a lot about Vietnam food but also about the culture, economics… Our guide Patrick knew a lot and could answer to all our questions. We had 6 stops, all very very good and we hope we can go there again!! We also recieved some extra food tips to try later which was very nice. Only can recommend! 😀

Best street food tour Hanoi - Had the best street food tour today, our guide Minh was great, he was very knowledgeable and funny also, he was great with our 6 yr old daughter, even convincing our fussy eater to try all the dishes! We have done food tours all around the world, and this is up there with the best of them. I highly recommend doing this in Hanoi. Ask for Minh and remember to stay fabulous on those streets people!
