Hue Food Tour
"We had an absolutely fantastic food tour in Hue with Du. She was a wonderful guide—warm, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable. Du took us to a range of authentic local spots that we would never have found on our own, each offering something unique and delicious.
What really stood out was how thoroughly she explained each dish—its ingredients, how it’s made, and the cultural significance behind it. Her depth of knowledge about Hue and its culinary traditions was impressive, and it added so much richness to the experience.
Du’s pride in her city and culture truly shone through. It made the tour feel personal and genuine rather than just another standard itinerary. We came away not only full, but with a much deeper appreciation for Hue and its food.
Highly recommend Du to anyone wanting an authentic and insightful food experience in Hue!

"Absolutely brilliant evening with Du sampling the food and drinks of Hue. Du was knowledgeable and shared very interesting insights to the local foods. She took us to some amazing places and we sampled some lovely food"
"Du is a gem inside a gem which is Hue and its spectacular imperial city.
She answered to all my (many) questions and showed a huge knowledge of the site. Highly recommended!"
"Bich was a fantastic host. We learned so much about not just Hue but Vietnam generally. We asked so many questions which he answered with ease. It felt by the end of the day that a friend was showing us his country. Highly reccomend"
"We had a great day with Bich Du. She was very knowledgeable about the history of Hue and was very happy to engage in discussions about the development of Vietnam . It was a fun and educational day visiting all the major tourist sights .
She has excellent English language skills and is happy to pass on her photography tips as well. "
"Chị Du was a truly wonderful guide and made our time in Huế so special. She was warm, personable, and incredibly knowledgeable, and she shared fascinating details that felt tailored to our interests rather than scripted. Every question we asked was met engaging, funny, and fascinating answers. She really made the history come alive in a way that was both fun and easy to follow.
She was also incredibly patient and generous with her time, and spoke excellent English and Vietnamese to make sure everyone felt included and comfortable. On top of that, she was amazing at helping us take photos, pointing out great spots and making sure we captured the moment without ever feeling rushed.
The three hours flew by so quickly because the tour was both educational and genuinely enjoyable. This was easily one of the highlights of our trip to Huế, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly, highly recommend!!"
"We had the pleasure to follow Du during this visit.
We really enjoyed our time with her and especially appreciated that she didn't just make us do a tour but also took time to share her culture with us and answer all our questions.
100% recommended !!

"Matthew was an amazing guide. We brought our three year old and were unsure how he would tolerate sightseeing. But Matthew was wonderful with him. He quickly learned what interests our son; and expertly balanced history for the adults with opportunities for our son to rest and play. Matthew has a history degree and it shines through. He had a fascinating answer for everything, from the upbringing of Ho Chi Minh to the political history of the Vietnamese language. We’d recommend Matthew to everyone. "
"We had a great time, learned a lot, were able to ask questions and got proper answers. She was super hospitable and with humor. We absolutely recommend her to anyone that is interested in a guided tour!"
