We had an excellent tour with Huy; it was seamless, fun, and filled with delicious dishes. He accommodated our dietary restriction without issue. He went above-and-beyond when my husband injured his ankle and got us an ace bandage and ibuprofen from the pharmacy. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to try lots of things in just a few hours, and learning about Vietnamese food culture all the while.

Great evening out in Hanoi! Tried lots of great food. It was a great way to see the old quarter at night

My family and I had such a wonderful time on our tour with Lucky. The food was amazing and he made the experience fun. He was so good at explaining about the food, the people and culture, it was all so very interesting. Thank you so much Lucky!

Mai did a great job - we had 3 kids ages 8, 5 and 2 - and she rolled with the ups and downs that can bring. Surprisingly our kids liked all the food, and she sent us the names of the restaurants and foods we ate afterwards so we would be able to remember, she even gave us recommendations on where to go for future meals.

This part of the city is jampacked with people and scooters, but Bao led us through skillfully! He brought us to little places which had wonderful food.

Wonderful experience. Our guide Huy was brilliant. He was friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful for first timers in Vietnam. We ate food I would not normally eat and it was delicious. Felt like a true local. Highly recommend.

The tour was very fun and a great guide to the Vietnamese dishes we could enjoy for the rest of our trip. Huy was friendly, relaxed and most importantly locally knowledgeable, giving us tips on not only food in Vietnam but also travel and the best spots.

Very enjoyable tour, lots of delicious food, great commentary by Mai. Appreciated the cultural insight and seeing how families live in Hanoi. Mai was personable, energetic, organized and packed a lot of food and stories in for a great night.
