Amazing Tour - Albert was amazing!! She was extremely knowledgeable especially when it came to my food allergies. She did her research to make sure that everything was safe for me to eat. She even got my sister a custom birthday cake at the end of the tour!

Birthday Extravaganza in Hanoi - We had a fantastic time with Albert on the evening food tour! We learned so much, had incredible dishes, and got to see some hidden gems in the city. I’d recommend this to anyone who is new or a resident of Hanoi! She even organized a birthday celebration for me at our last stop 💕

Wonderful experience, tailored to suit your group, personable host - Vy was a fantastic host, she was friendly and personable and seemed just as excited to do the tour as we were. I've spent a year in Vietnam, but Vy introduced me to new foods and helped me learn pronunciation and vocabulary linked to the dishes and beyond. A wonderful experience that left us with full tummies and big smiles.
