Must do food tour - Just spent an amazing morning on the Hi End Private Food Tour with a real foodie. Massive shoutout to our incredible guide Cherry for showing us the hidden culinary gems of Hanoi. We tasted everything from authentic banh mi and bia hoi to heavenly pho and learned so much about the local food scene.

Fun and enjoyable tour - My food tour was with "Patrick" who was indeed excellent. Everyone knew him well wherever we visited. He was fun and most interesting. The tour was a great introduction to Vietnamese street food and I was glad I did it on my first day here. Patrick explained everything well and did a great job in sharing his enjoyment of Vietnamese food with our group.

Great Vietnamese tour! - The food tour was amazing! James my tour guide was patient and knew a lot about the local cuisine. He even came back at night to take me to Train Street because we ran out of time during the day.

Fun, delicious, informative local tour with amazing guide - This was hands down the best food tour I have ever been on. Patrick was super knowledgeable, fun and engaging. We tried several local dishes which were of amazing quality. This tour is great value for money and a good starting point for your time in Hanoi. Patrick later sent through all of the recommendations, as well as some for other cities we are visiting in Vietnam, all of which have been impeccable so far. Special shout out to Patrick for going above and beyond! We did this with our 4 month old and Patrick and the group were very accommodating.

Bún chả and Patrick ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Patrick was an excellent guide, providing insightful history and great advice. The local food we sampled was delicious (the pork meatballs in the Bún chả were a particular highlight). Highly recommend.

Come Hungry! A Tasty Hanoi Food Adventure - We booked the 10:00 am Private Hanoi Street Food Tour with a Real Foodie and spent an incredible four hours with Minh, tasting an amazing variety of Vietnamese street food. Minh was a fantastic guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about both the food and the culture. He took us to places we never would have found on our own and ordered the best dishes at each stop; and each place was one of his personal favorites, where he eats himself. But it was more than just the food. Minh showed us how to personalize every dish to our taste, using condiments like rice vinegar, chilis, and pepper, transforming already delicious bites into something unforgettable. He also shared practical tips on how to eat street food safely, explaining when to be cautious and what to look for. There was so much food that by the end of the tour, we couldn’t eat another bite! Minh’s connections around the city made the experience even more special. He even brought us to a hidden little speakeasy, where we sat and talked about life, Vietnam, and so much more. After the tour, he followed up with detailed recommendations for more places to eat and shop, making sure our culinary adventure didn’t end when the tour did. It was a fantastic morning—filled with laughter, fun, and incredible food. Highly recommend! Thanks, Minh!

Eat the streets - James was great and took us to some places we likely would not have found ourselves. Friendly and knowledgeable and responsive to the group. Bun Cha, Egg coffee, Coconut Ice cream and a banging peanut sauce on the summer rolls the highlights. Maybe the beer stop could have been dialled up a bit.
