Experience Hanoi Eating as a Local

We met San in the early afternoon and he was so friendly and welcoming. He really loves his work and he has such a great relationship with all the people in each place that you feel like a local. The food was great but more than that it’s all of the great local knowledge he shares as you wander through the streets. So many hidden fabulous places we may never have found or perhaps not had the courage to go to by ourselves.

Fantastic Hanoi Street Food Experience

Can’t recommend this Food Tour highly enough. Ninh was a friendly and engaging host with great local knowledge. The food was amazing and there was plenty of it, so start with an empty stomach. Part cultural and part gastronomical experience. Great Night!
