Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"The four of us really enjoyed our food tour with Loan. We had been in Hanoi six days prior to meeting up with Loan and had already tried many good restaurants in the Old Quarters but she still surprised us with dishes and places that we would have never discovered on our own. Her tour was definitely one of the highlights of our stay in Hanoi . Thank you Loan"
"Ruby’s super fun and took us to all the best spots that we’d never know and recommended even more - helping us eat our way across Hanoi!"
"Trang was a great tour guide! We tried so many delicious foods and got to see a lot of the city, including Train Street! Would recommend to anyone visiting Hanoi!"
"This trip we’ve started to do the ‘With Locals’ tours as well as other more regular guided experiences. Really enjoying the very personalised touch from the With Locals team and this fantastic street food tour with Anne is a good example. We had already done some street food tours elsewhere plus cooking classes so had a good idea of what we wanted. She asked our preferences before the tour and was able to accomodate: for me that was ‘things on sticks’. Lots of different and contrasting foods and plenty of local insights. Anne was great to go around with, it felt more like hanging out with a friend than going on a guided tour. We probably laughed more than we ate. "

When you visit a city like Hanoi, one of the best ways to really get to know it is through its food. A private food tour with a local guide is like having a friend show you all the best places to eat, the spots only locals know about.
Picture this: a local foodie taking you to the hidden gems of Hanoi, from the tastiest street food to cozy restaurants serving up the best traditional dishes. Whether you're into sampling street food, exploring local markets, or dining at off-the-beaten-path spots, your guide will create a tour that’s all about enjoying the true flavors of Hanoi.
The best part? These food tours are just for you. No big crowds, no fixed menus – it’s all about what you want to taste and experience. Whether you're snapping photos of colorful dishes, learning the stories behind the food, or simply savoring each bite, the tour moves at your pace.
And it’s not just about the city. You can also take a day trip to nearby areas, where you can visit vineyards, farms, or coastal towns to enjoy fresh, local specialties. If you're new to Hanoi, start with a food tour that gives you a taste of everything – it's like a friendly introduction to the city's best bites, guided by someone who knows every delicious corner.
So, when you’re in Hanoi, skip the touristy spots. Take a private food tour and discover the real flavors that make Hanoi special. Get ready to eat like a local and make your trip truly memorable!

"Lien was a fantastic guide! She taught us so much about the local dishes and everything was delicious. It was a wonderful experience that would highly recommend!"
"Ruby is just the best tour guide, from start to finish she made me feel very comfortable, we went to many different locations and tried street food that I would never have tried without a guide, the food in other countries can sometimes at first site appear scary, but once Ruby had explained the dishes to me I was more than happy to tuck into the food and wow I’m glad I did. All of the food was fantastic as was Ruby. I highly recommend this tour to anyone, even a fussy eater like me ate all of the food !!"
"Anne was an amazing guide, great sense of humour. Found many things on sticks for my family. Lots of stories, background information, side street and back room visits. We had such a fantastic night. Thank you Anne (Quynh Anh). We had such fun. "
"We spent our first evening in Vietnam on a food tour with Quynh Anh guiding us to very authentic dining spots across the historic Old Town. We stopped at 5 spots and enjoyed more than 10 different, authentic very delicious dishes. Quynh Anh was very knowledgeable, very personable and energetic. It was a great tour. Highly recommended…."
"Ruby was the perfect person to take us around the old quarter and introduce us to the area and to authentic Hanoi food. She made adjustments based on what we wrote ahead of time and even on the go after discussions about preferences, etc. She was knowledgeable, kind, funny, and fun to talk with. As for the food itself: incredible. We got a whole range of delicious examples of local cuisine. Would suggest this trip and Ruby in particular every time. Thank you Ruby!!"
