        Interesting, good food and excellent guide
        We did the night walking food tour and train street visit with Liam. He was excellent because he was friendly, informative, funny and relaxed. We weren’t hurried, we were well fed and kept safe while walking between destinations. He was easy to talk to and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Liam.

        Ha Noi food tour
        Small group tour of 6 led by Paul, a very knowledgeable guide who gave us history lessons of the food and Vietnamese culture and history. We tried authentic and flavorful North Vietnamese food and drinks. I couldn’t find Banh Mi as good as the one from the tour during the rest of my Vietnam visit. In addition to visiting family businesses to eat, he also showed us attractions around the Old Quarter for photos, including a safe and uncrowded spot on Train Street for the iconic photo shoots.

      Chloe our local tour guide was amazing! She brought us to the local owned family restaurants in which you wouldn’t be able to find on google and they all served amazing traditional local food. The best part was, Chloe would try out these places on her own time before recommending them to the tourists.

      My wife and I booked this tour in Hanoi. We started with a 30 minute tour of the old quarter in a cyclo which was great. As we had already experienced Pho, our guide took us to another restaurant to experiece another northern dish of Bun Cha with is a grilled pork soup and was lovely. She then took us to a local coffee shop to experience the local specialty of Egg Coffee for dessert. Yum. We then walked along the lake and she explained the lake to us before providing us with the tickets to the water puppet show with set bookex seats. In all a really good tour and highly recommended.

      What an amazing evening, we thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Tom, we started out with a Cyclo tour of the city which was a wonderful way to take a sedate journey past some of the best sights of the Old Quarter whilst the hustle and bustle of the city is all around you, due to the time we were also lucky enough to get a spectacular sunset!

      We then moved onto the next part of the tour, which consisted of truly delicious food at some of the local eateries, we had Banh Mi then traditional Beef Pho this was followed by a walk through the street market, before heading for egg coffee (well in my case egg cocoa) in a hidden away gem of a cafe, and wow was that something special (Yum).

      Our final destination was the Water Puppet Show, this was quirky, funny and entertaining depiction of some of the local legends, the traditional music and singing were fantastic. All in all I would not hesitate at all to recommend this tour, Tom was a great guide, he was friendly, took lots of pictures for us, and was very informative and knowledgeable. Thanks for a wonderful evening in Hanoi, we will have treasured memories.

      This was the first tour we did in Hanoi and it was a great way to explore it for the first time. Our tour was lovely and explained everything in detail but also really communicated the situation in Vietnam and how people live there. But the highlight of the tour was definitely the pho. This still remains the best meal we had in Vietnam. I would definitely recommend.
