Great Food, Great Guide

Great food and Great tour with Chris! Loads of information about Hanoi and what we were eating. Also very accommodating for vegetarian options.

Vegeterian food tour with Ashley

We ate very well, and discovered some dishes made in a different way from what we had eaten in more than three weeks that I was in Vietnam. And she speaks English very well, with an understandable accent, which feels good. Perhaps add to the turn to taste fruits that we rarely have the opportunity to taste elsewhere?

A taste of authentic vegetarian cuisine in Vietnam

I really enjoyed the way our guide, Nick, threaded together explanations of food and history in such a way that was hard to come by. We even had some chats on rent rates and he was very approachable in general! Our conversations felt natural and allowed me to learn about Vietnam with a unique and realistic perspective. As a fellow Southeast Asian, I felt more connected to other countries in the region through this tour.

Thi is the best guide!

We had a wonderful guide with Thi, he was very helpful and friendly. We had my five year old daughter with us and he was very playful, entertaining her and helping us find food for her and many restroom breaks. He also kept her happy while we shopped! Thank you Thi for interesting conversation about Vietnam and a great day!
