Great food , company , and tour with Minh. - I booked Minh’s tour a few days before. Minh communicated with me right away which I appreciated. Minh asked my food preferences which were respected throughout the tour which I really appreciated. All food beer and other drinks was included so it felt nice not having to take out my wallet during the tour. Jerry was our guide and they did great ! Jerry brought us to many small food shops that seem to be at every inch of Hanoi. Having Jerry’s expertise bring us to “the good ones” made me feel confident I had a great eating experience. Further, Jerry taught me many culinary and cultural facts about Vietnam. I am very happy I went on this tour and would recommend it to anyone. Oh yea and the food was awesome !!

Just PERFECT! This is a MUST book - Booked this last minute, Minh responded extremely promptly! It was my boyfriends birthday and she immediately gave me suggestions of how we could make it special for him. Our tour guide ended up being Jerry and I’m so happy they were!!!! Jerry communicated thoroughly and quickly. They even gave me tips of how to kill time before the tour started. They ended up arranging a cake and got the whole restaurant to sing “Happy Birthday” at the end of the tour! Oh, also…my boyfriend eats like a horse, just MASSIVE amounts. At each stop, Jerry made sure we were full and didn’t want anymore food. My boyfriend always did so Jerry made sure to get him seconds! It was AWESOME. I’ve never had so much food on a food tour. And free beer and water. WOW. I couldn’t recommend this experience enough!!!!!!!!

Best Hanoi Food Tour! - We booked a last minute tour and it was the best decision made. Was supposed to meet at 6pm but it started pouring heavily. Our guide Jerry is fantastic. She came to pick us up at our convenience (we didn’t managed to meet at the expected meeting point due to the heavy rain). She came with raincoats for us to put on before we start the tour. All the dishes were amazing and very well organised. We’ve tried food that we wanted to try but haven’t got a chance. Jerry’s knowledge is very commendable as well. Overall we had a very pleasant experience and would totally recommend!! Thank you Jerry for being a wonderful guide!!

Jerry fans - We love Jerry! The tour food was exceptional, as was Jerry’s knowledge. Jerry (and the vendors) were very accommodating to all dietary needs and kept the group informed of all options. The group was fun and Jerry set up a great environment for us all to enjoy local culture and cuisine together 😍✨☺️😊

Personalized vegetarian tour for the win! - Jerry was an incredibly kind and knowledgeable guide. If you are looking for a personalized food tour, book this tour! Especially if you have dietary needs like vegetarian or vegan. Jerry was prompt, detailed, funny, and always down to answer all the general questions about Vietnam. We are lucky to have taken this tour.

delicious food and wonderful company!! - This food tour was absolutely amazing. Minh is the best - she is super sweet, answered all of our many questions and showed us some amazing food. Not only did she order the best things, but she also explained the culture and traditions surrounding each food. She was so flexible and recommended things as we went depending on our tastes and likes. My friend is a vegetarian and had some dietary restrictions, and Minh went above and beyond to accommodate and bring her great alternatives. This tour was the highlight of our stay in Hanoi!

5/5 ⭐️ Food Tour! - We loved Minh’s tour! We went to 7 different places (5 main courses, 1 coffee, 1 dessert) and really enjoyed each place. The places we went to were tailored based on our food interests and allergies and appreciated the customized aspect of the tour and that we also went to places that were not at the top of any tourist traps

We loved this food tour!! Local, interesting places and excellent guide, Jerry! - Jerry was our tour guide and was incredible! They arrived early at our hotel, and took us to all the local spots around hanoi old quarter. They were funny, informative and taught us all the intricacies of eating food. Everything we had was delicious, and would not have been able to find, order or even eat with out Jerry's guidance. Included rice paper rolls, summer pho, banh mi, and more. We were so happy and full by the end. They were also able to give us recommendations for other cafes, and facilitate us getting the best spot on train street at 9pm. Thank you Jerry for an excellent experience!
