Best food tour in Vietnam - We had a great day today with Dan. It was juat the 3 of us, which was like our own private tour. Dan was fantastic taking us to many places in Old Quarter to try vietnamese foods from Bah Mi, Pho to Banh Tom. We have lots of vietnamese in Melvourne but you must try the original! Dan was extremely well spoken, happy to answer all of our questions, walked at a great pace so we could digest between meal stops and enjoyed showing us proper vietnamese food and places he enjoys. It was lovely to get to know about his life here too. Train st was a favourite (considering theres really nothing like it where were from) followed by qumquat tea. Highly recommend. Make sure you wear comfy shoes and are ready to eat!!

Great food and train walking tour - Our tour guide Minh was amazing and very accommodating. He was also very knowledgeable and friendly to our group. We ate local food that tasted great and filled us all up. The train street spot was perfect for our family pictures. Than you again for an amazing tour.

First time traveling to Vietnam - I had a new travel experience, walking around Hanoi's old town and tasting Hanoi's local food. Food name Bun cha Fragrant roast pork served with sweet and sour soup and white noodles And the fresh vegetables are very delicious. The guide is lovely and gives detailed information.
