Hanoi Food Tour - Great food tour by Po. We sampled a variety of delicious foods within the Old quarter. My husband has a peanut allergy and Po made sure everything was safe for him to eat and provided alternatives so he didn’t miss out. After the food tour we were given a list of recommended restaurants and street food vendors to try which was very useful as we had a few more days in Hanoi

Excellent experience! - We were served by Hazel. The experience was perfect. She shared generously with her knowledge about the food, history and culture in Hanoi and in Vietnam, which we were impressed with. The food selected by the food tour were pretty impressive, with some having us wanting seconds, strongly recommended to start a Hanoi trip with their food tour! Thank you Hazel for the amazing tour and hospitality!

Best food tour I’ve ever been on! - I could not recommend this tour more, the food was absolutely amazing, particularly the red noodles (I could eat it everyday). Emma was the perfect guide, not only was she a wealth of information but she was honest and genuine and bloody hilarious!! Book this your first night in Hanoi so that you can go back to all the places for food again and also try out the long list of recommendations that Ella gives you at the end of the tour!!
