Delicious food tour with Trung - Trung our guide was a legend. We had such a great time walking around Hanoi and tasting some amazing food. We really enjoyed the diversity of dishes along the tour and found it tough picking a favourite as they were all so good! Not only was Trung knowledgeable on the food and how it’s made but gave some great insights into Hanoi culture and its history. Highly recommend.

Best guide - Our tour guide, Lucky, was excellent. He listened to what we wanted to do and even managed to fit in a trip to Train Street. He was very informative and we had a lovely afternoon in his company. Took us to excellent street side cafes we would never have tried by ourselves. Thank you again Lucky

Train and food tour - What a wonderful few hours with our guide, Lucky, who introduced us to some lovely Vietnamese food and drink but also shared his knowledge of the sights and culture.

Absolutely exceptional food and guide! - We really enjoyed the tour with Duy and Minh, they showed us where to go and we ate delicious food in 5 different locals, everything was exceptional, especially the beef noodle soup and the spring rolls. Oh my god and the green sticky rice with coconut ice cream, we will talk about this experience for years! We had a great time and at the end we enjoyed some tea next to the train tracks and even got the chance to see the train pass by super close to us! The guide was very authentic and easy to talk to, you can ask any question you want and they're happy to respond.

Train Street and Surrounding Areas. - Our Visit too Train Street with your tour guide Kenny was the highlight of our day, as it was on our bucket list as things to do. His attitude too our safety was paramount, again he was very attentive too our needs and made sure that we were comfortable. He also showed us the various streets, ie Leather Street,-Toy Street -Wood Street, Beer Street. Through out the day he did not pressurise us to move on, it was all done too suit our pace. As we are both active 70 year olds. Kenny is a credit too your company.He actually made the day special for us.Thank you.

Priceless experience! - Minh was just brilliant in his choice of food for the tour. We not only had great food but had a brief cultural experience where Minh brought us to hidden areas of Hanoi and gave us very practical (non-food) information. While you may want to taste the "usual" favourites, do ask him to bring you to taste food that a visitor to Hanoi would not be able to find/order on his own. His warm and welcoming personality was a bonus and our family totally enjoyed this tour. Totally worth the tour price!

Fantastic tour with a lovely Hanoi native - We had a great day touring Old Hanoi with Chris. He is a consummate professional. The communication leading up and following the tour was exceptional. The food was delicious and we also had two local beers that were excellent and, of course, egg coffee! He took us to his out of the way food haunts and did a nice job of explaining the history and culture of Hanoi as we went along. This was a nice way for us to spend our first day in Hanoi. Would highly recommend using this kind gentleman to show you around! 5🌟

Best Way to Experience Hanoi’s Food! - This tour was amazing! Kenny was our tour guide and he was incredible and very knowledgeable! Every place he took us for food was unreal and we would go to every place again to eat more. We got the perfect seats on Train Street and enjoyed our coffee with the train right in front of us. Highly recommend!

Exploring the town with our excellent guide! - Thanks to our guide Huy Vu for doing a great job. The food was yummy and we have a great experience. Due to the recommendations, it gave us tips on what to do here in hanoi if we are planning to explore the place when we are alone. It’s also easy to navigate and a good thing he is here with us on our first day. I recommend to do this tour before exploring hanoi, so that you have an idea on what to do here, where to eat, and what to expect. All in all, our guide is the best. He can speak English well plus he is also friendly.
