Mai was very friendly and can communicate in fluent English with us. That makes the experience so pleasant. She passionately brought us with in food we would not have discovered (except one). I felt like we are in a special food tour that is unique. I like her way of sharing including what the limes are used for, how the similar word used for food and street name and many more stories about Vietnamese food culture and life. We totally enjoyed her 3-hour food walking tour. Will strongly recommend her as her hospitality and friendliness.

Great experience with our guide Lucky, who was friendly and spoke English very well. We got to taste a few different dishes from different places. All were authentic and very tasty!

It was a blast. Saw so many places I never would have gone to and the food was great. The guide, David, was so much fun and really made the experience memorable.

Mai was a fantastic guide, every place was 10/10 for the food. In between each food stop we saw a lot of really interesting spots along the way. 3.5 hours too, it's great value and time well spent.

A great tour of local and family run spots! Patrick was a great guide with lots of local knowledge, taking us to try local dishes throughout the old quarter area! He also sent us recommendations of different places to try on the rest of our journey through the country! We would highly recommend this tour!

Amazing food, great fun and a terrific guide (Minh) . One of the best things we have done while in Hanoi. Caveat: if you are not into eating at holes in the wall this may not be the right tour for you. If you are into adventure and good food it is.

We had an excellent time. The food was wonderful. By the time we were done we were stuffed. Variation of food was excellent vs our guide James, was helpful, knowledgeable and entertaining. Overall, seeing the sites and hearing the sounds of the city was exciting. Walking the streets was an experience. And the food was excellent.

A huge thank you to Nic (Minh), our guide for today's food tour! He's attentive, very kind, and always has great stories to tell about the places we visit and the food we taste! The food was delicious and the places were really lovely! We 100% recommend it for a first-time experience in Hanoi! Jeremie and Charlotte
