Support Young Entrepreneurs - Alex met us in the park where he was handing out his business card. We enjoyed talking to him so much we arranged a food tour with him. We really enjoyed the local food he introduced us…he is very knowledgeable about his cuisine, friendly and a joy to be around. We also took a trip to Ninh Binh which he arranged through a local tour company. We wanted to support local businesses as much as we could.

Best experience we had in Hanoi with a local whose English will blow your mind - Great food tour with Alex, 100% worth it! Alex is the first local tour guide(!) I met whose English proficiency level is so high that I felt a conversation is really taking place (For reference: I met 6 tour guides in Vietnam). We learned a lot about Northern Vietnam Cuisine and Culture during the tour. Also, Alex is simply a kind and lovely human being. We wish him all the best!

Photastic Phood - What {pho}tastic four hours of eating our way through the culturally rich and diverse streets of Hanoi! Each stop was unique from banh mi in a hidden alley, to sitting on tiny chairs over a bowl of snails, it was truly an unforgettable experience. If you want to try a diversity of Vietnamese food while gaining a deeper appreciation of Vietnam, you should definitely book with Alex!!

Amazing tour and tour guide. - Awesome tour! I truly enjoyed the food. Alex introduced me to a variety of authentic Vietnamese dishes that I had never had before. But what made the tour most memorable was Alex himself, who is really knowledgeable. We had really intellectually stimulating and fun at the same time conversations. Highly recommended.

Great Hanoi Food Tour - Alex is a very friendly guide who speaks great English with a good sense of humour. I met him a few times during my 2 month stay in Hanoi by Sword Lake and whilst I had tried a variety of different places to eat I did a short tour with him to try some new places. I wasn't disappointed and highly recommend him to other tourists. Thanks Alex.

A great night! - What started with an impromptu meeting on the shores of Hoan Kiem Lake ended with one of the best Bahn Mi I've had in Vietnam! Alex definitely knows his stuff with regards to Vietnamese society and its nuances. He was happy to answer all of our questions both inside, and outside, Hanoi. We'll be passing his details onto friends back in Australia!
