Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Kim was an amazing guide who not only gave us a thorough introduction to various types of tasty local foods we would never have tried otherwise, but was also very knowledgable and opinionated about the nuanced differences between different places and vendors. Highly recommended! "
"Tuyen was an excellent guide. Not only did he know all of the great off the beaten path spots, he knew all the history of the last several hundred years in detail! He was flexible in the timing of where we ate, and was able to accommodate out special requests. We ate where the locals ate and they were always crowded. He used his good looks and charm to get us seated quickly. Make sure you come HUNGRY!"
"We had an incredible experience on the Hanoi street food tour with Brian as our guide! From start to finish, the tour was well-organized, fun, and full of amazing flavors. Some of the best local dishes we tasted on our trip and he also shared great stories and insights about the city's history and food culture. especially loved how he took us to spots that felt genuinely local, not touristy. It felt like exploring the city with a knowledgeable friend who knows all the hidden gems. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Hanoi-it's the perfect way to experience the city's vibrant food scene. Come hungry, we could barley eat everything! "
"Ruby was a brilliant guide. So pleased we chose to go with her. She could not be a better guide. We had so much fun and she is great company. She is very informative. We went on both the food tour and the Halong Bay trip with her. The food was amazing. As it was Tet there were very few restaurants open. Ruby went out of her way to find and book us an excellent restaurant. Nothing was too much for her. But best of all she was just great fun to be with. We had a fantastic time with Ruby. We strongly suggest you choose Ruby as your guide. You will not be disappointed. "
"We had a lovely evening together with Trang Chu! We visit her personal favoriete spots and it did not let us down. Even it was cold and raining she made the best of it! Her english is really good so the explanation about the different types of foods were clear and we had nice conversations! Would recommend doing this tour with Trang Chu! "
"We had a fantastic day with Kim!! He showed us so many great spots in Hanoi, we ate delicious food and had really nice conversations! A huge recommendation to spend a day exploring with Kim, finishing it off with a cold beer!! All in all, amazing!!"
"Brian took us to great small vendors and unique eats that we would have never found on our own. He was extremely knowledgeable about the food and elements in the dishes and fun and interesting to speak with! "
"Had a wonderful tour with Lien. She was very responsive and took time to curate an itinerary to meet my dietary restrictions. Sadly, I was unwell but my traveling companion had dinner and drinks with Lien. She said it was more like meeting a friend for dinner vs meeting a tour guide. Lien was happy to share her love of Hanoi and provided insights into other spots to try, which were delicious. Highly recommend. "
"We really enjoyed our tour with Kim! He gave us all the information there is to know about Vietnam and Hanoi. We actually can call ourselves locals now! The food spots he takes you are the best. We loved every single thing. He really makes sure to take you to the most authentic places."
"Love her enthousiasm and energy. Speaks perfect American, which she learnt by watching television. "
