[Hi-end] Private Hanoi Street Food Tour With Real Foodie

Our introduction to Minh started as a mistake. Sharing the same name as another guest at the hotel we were staying at, my partner and I, along with Minh, set off on a tour that was to never be. After the first spot - which blew us away, Minh and I received calls asking where we were, and realising our mistake we reluctantly traipsed back to the hotel to go on the tour we had initially booked. However, Minh’s magnetic personality and the food spot instantly vibed with us and we knew we had to go on his tour. So after exchanging numbers, we booked ourselves a tour for our final night of the trip and it was a superb way to end. He took us to so many spots off the beaten tourist path and was accommodating the whole evening. I cant recommend him highly enough!

We had an excellent food tour with Minh. He is a super funny guy, very knowledgeable and passionate about the Hanoi street food scene and a great guide. We would highly recommend.

We had a great time with Minh. He took us to some great street food places to taste their specialities. Each one different from the last. Not only did he introduce us to new foods but how to eat them. He is an expert on the country's history so it was facinating talking to him about this wonderful country. He's ser us up with places to go out and go to in other towns too. We all highly recommend Minh.

Great experience with Kenny who was both knowledgeable and very friendly. Amazing local delicacies in really authentic settings. Loved the vibe and energy of the city at night and the range of food on offer. Would recommend to others.

My husband and I had Minh as our personal tour guide and we had the best time! We were able to experience our first taste of Hanoi with him, taking us into alleyways and bringing us into the ultimate local spots. We loved every place he took us to and now we feel lost without him. Great food, great company, and lots of shared stories and laughs! If you ever have a chance to have a private food tour, ask for Minh personally, you won't regret it!

Bob was the best food tour guide! He included fun history tidbits that made every stop so much more engaging. He took us to genuine, authentic spots—no tourist traps, just the real deal. Loved every dish we ate but most memorable for me is the phở at his mom's restaurant, Phở Gà Hà, and a local favorite pho and spring rolls place at Hàng Quạt—both were incredible. He was super generous with recommendations for other spots we could try on our own. Right after our 3-hour tour, we chilled at his suggested cafe, with its gorgeous second floor full of colorful lanterns. His dinner pick at the Michelin Guide-listed resto that offers fish with vegetbles, nuts and noodles was perfect. The stir-fried beef phở at one of his favorite phở spots is delicious with huge servings—I had to take some home! Super chill, knowledgeable guy. Book him—you won't regret it!

Fun,casual way to immerse ourselves in the local cuisine. Enjoyed the 5 stops with different dishes. Now I'm even more interested to learn about local vietnamese food and customs. The evening flew with the charming,friendly and engaging host Kenny. He was the perfect person for the job. Kia ora Kenny!! I will book this tour again.

As we only had one full day in Hanoi, we booked a private food tour with HA Food tours, which was the best decision we could have made. From the booking process until the drop-off at our hotel, the service was impeccable and punctual. Ricky, our guide, and his companion Ben were great guys to go on this tour with. We especially enjoyed the fact that it was a real local tour; we didn’t meet any other tourists in any of the food venues we visited. Also, the guys weren't wearing uniforms, so we completely blended into the traffic like locals. If you are looking for a brief impression of Hanoi combined with off-the-beaten-path food experiences, this is the tour for you!

Patrick is an amazing local guide. Born and raised in Hanoi, he has a wonderful and fantastic knowledge of the local food scene and the history and culture of Hanoi. Our walking tour with him was excellent as we tried many of Hanoi’s and Vietnam’s delicious street cuisine. He took us to may family owned and operated small shops hidden to everyone but the locals. We learned so much about Vietnamese culture and history while tasting delicious meals. Highly recommend

Kenny was an amazing host. He was welcoming, fun and easy to talk to. He introduced us to some delicious street food we would have not otherwise tried. Totally recommend!
