Itinerary
Our evening food tour invites guests on a culinary experience around Da Nang. It's a carefully curated food adventure, led by our team of professional food guides. Before we get started, our tour reflects the local cuisine, & the limitations of street food vendors means we unfortunately cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour, so no-one is disappointed: ✘ Unsuitable for vegetarian diets sorry, as there would be 5-6 less tastings. ✖️ Unsuitable for severe allergies, halal and celiac diets, due to the risk of traces & cross-contamination. If you are feeling adventurous for a foodie journey, read on!
Across the Han River bridge, lies a culinary hotspot that uncovers the real food heroes of Da Nang's most delicious street eats. Join our food tour of generations-old local eateries, with closely guarded family recipes, tossing their flame-grilled woks as dusk hits. Some are so good that they made it to the Michelin list (something the city's plucky neighbor Hoi An has yet to achieve). From stringy vermicelli with marinated pork, to ground beef wrapped in piper lolot leaves. Get ready for roasted com gà chicken with turmeric rice, and steamed rice cake topped with flaky orange dried shrimp. We'll slurp on fish cake noodle soup, and steamed clams with lemongrass, working our chopsticks over whiteleg shrimp and grilled rabbitfish. Amongst many more surprises, there's 15+ tastings to truly understand Central Vietnam's epic palate of regional dishes.
The tour ends with a sweet stop, going full circle back by the bridge we started. We aim to conquer the real food epicentre of Da Nang, only for locals-in-the-know.

We had a great time trying so much local food. Stephanie was a fantastic guide and explained about the food, culture, buildings. We loved a few of the options so much we have done back again. It was a great way to see the city and try places we wouldn’t have gone to in our own.
Had an awesome experience. Great finds for authentic Vietnamese/Danang cuisine and bites.
The Chefs Tour with Vivian was exceptional. Over the years I have experienced a number of food tours and I have to say this is the best I have encountered. The food was plentiful but the highlight for me was the diversity of food. We tried things that you don’t come across at your local Vietnamese restaurant back in your home country. Vivian was also extremely knowledgeable and provided interesting commentary as we walked through the interesting streets of Da Nang. I would highly recommend this tour.
Even in the heat, the tour was a great experience. The spots we visited were definitely ones we would not have found on our own. It was a wonderful experience.
Guide was excellent . Stephanie was very informative about what I was experiencing with each plate to include some background about the establishments we were visiting . Above and beyond , she gave me some good insight on Vietnamese life/culture . Would reccomend tour !
An interesting tour through the back streets of the old town in Danang. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and patient. Huong guided us on a thoughtful well presented foodie night.
My partner and I were the only ones, so it was a private tour. Vivienne was an amazing tour guide and a local to Da Nang. We could not speak more highly of her. It was truly lovely having someone to show us around trying new food we would never have thought to try and explaining the history of businesses to us that instagram never could. The dishes were absolutely incredible and you could tell this whole tour was created by a local. This was my second ‘A chefs tour’ and I would recommend this experience to anyone. It is easily accessible and delicious! Don’t eat at all before coming because there is too much food to eat and good times to have :)
I have been on multiple tours from A Chef's Tour in different cities/countries and they have all been great. This one was no different. Vi was my tour guide, she was very helpful and knowledgeable. We tried a variety of local foods that I probably would have never tried or found on my own. Highly recommend if you are in Da Nang. As always with A Chef's Tour the food is plentiful. You are never going to leave one of their tours feeling hungry.
My partner and I have done a number of A Chef's Tour in Asia and the one in Đà Nẵng was of our favourites! We were introduced to numerous local dishes that were chock full of flavor. Our guide Ms. Hương did a wonderful job showing us around the city during our tour. Her English proficiency while speaking provided us with a clear understanding of local life style and the historic significance of certain areas of Đà Nẵng that we passed by on the tour. She always ensured that we were comfortable and most importantly full by the end of the tour! Highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants a taste of Đà Nẵng beyond just good eats! And hopefully you are just as lucky as us and get Ms. Hương as your guide!
