- 1We start our excellent street food walking tour at 78a Tran Nhat Duat Street at Kim Tours's Building in old quarter of Hanoi. Along the perimeter of the market, dozens of street hawkers sell a staggering variety of produce from live seafood to exotic fruits and spices. Your expert English-speaking local guide will give you an insight into the intricacies and traditions of Vietnamese food culture including details on ingredients and historical backgrounds of popular northern dishes. We eat as we go, trying seasonal fruits and sampling a tasty French-inspired snack from a street cart. Walking through the maze of bustling streets that make up Hanoi’s Old Quarter, we tempt our tastebuds with the famed Hanoi dish Banh Cuon at a local eatery. Watch in awe as the skilled chefs demonstrate for you how this tasty dish is put together. Continuing into the atmospheric heart of the Old Quarter, we wander past street stalls and quiet residential lanes where you can observe local life

- Eli K0 contributionsSee Viet Nam with KimI planned with Kim a 10 day tour of VietNam. She was amazingly helpful and listened to what we wanted to accomplish.once we were here, we made some last minute changes due to weather and other factors, and Kim adjusted our schedule happily. And she was available late into the night. I highly recommend her services for anyone who wants to come worry free to VietNamWritten December 10, 2024
- CMacIntyre0 contributionsYummy Vietnam!We got to try several Vietnamese foods at very good places. We were the only two on the tour so basically got a private tour with Apple, who was a lovely lady and fun to talk to. She gave us some insights into living in Vietnam and the food culture there. Highly recommend.Written December 3, 2024
- Jeff K0 contributionsAwesome food tour in old quarterHighly recommend! Wendy was our guide for the food tour and she was fantastic. It was a really fun 3 hours spent trying new food, and we appreciated her explanation of all the foods and her customization of the tour to things we had tried already.Written January 1, 2024
- 16ineh0 contributionsOld Quarter food tourWe had a lovely time during our street food tour. We were the only people who subscribed for the tour that evening so we had a private tour hosted by Thao (ask for her if you book, she is the best!). She did an awesome job leading us through the Old Quarter and explaining us about its history and its food culture. The food was delicious and we had a wonderful evening that was certainly worth the money.Written December 7, 2023

- kunalp9710 contributionsWhat an experienceOur guide was Miss Moon who was incredible. She was extremely knowledgeable and the funniest and most personal tour guide I've had in vietnam so far on my travels. All the food we tried was incredible and the experience was made even better with Miss Moon's company!Written March 11, 2020

- joycec020 contributionsBest Food Tour with Miss Moon!Joyce Chen <joycec913@gmail.com> 3:07 PM (5 hours ago) to me My husband and I had the best time with Miss Moon on the street food tour. She was so funny, sweet, informative and showed us how the locals eat with plate after plate of the best Hanoi street food. I’m a lacto-ovo vegetarian so I was a little worried about joining a food tour in a city known for its meat and seafood dishes, but left the tour very full and happy. Miss moon did such a great job accommodating everyone’s dietary restrictions and even taught us a little Vietnamese! Can’t wait to tell everyone about her and hope to come back with more friends and family in the future. Thank you Miss Moon!Written March 10, 2020
- 462halimak0 contributionsOver the Moon food tourMoon food tour. Our food babies (tummies) were so full and happy. I brought my 7 year old daughter. Moon was not only great with all the adults, but also was amazing with my daughter too. Great tips about Vietnam culture, language lessons and very funny moments. Thank you for making the food tour great and a highlight to our Vietnam trip 😊 Loved the egg coffee, steam pancake and coconut Iceman with green rice, delicious!!! Big thank you Moon for a great day.Written March 9, 2020

Whilst we live in Hanoi, we thought it would be fun to explore the city on a food tour and check out some of the places we might not be brave enough to try on our own! Our English speaking guide was called Moon, and she was awesome.
Think we ended up going to 7 different places, and we were left super happy, full, and with loads of great insights. So recommended both for tourists (whenever COVID travel restrictions are lifted), and those who live here.
.... we have pre-teen kids. They loved some of the dishes, but a few weren’t to their taste. However, our guide was great at finding other options that worked for them

We had a really great experience visiting really good food adresses in the old city during 3 hours.
Our guide Moon was so energic, funny and comic, there was no better way to discover the city !
I would recommend it to know all basic foods of Vietnam

Violet was our guide and she was wonderful. We were guided around the Old Quarter for three hours sampling food and drink along the way. This a great tour to understand the various food offered in Hanoi. I absolutely enjoyed this tour and will do it again when I bring my wife with me to Vietnam.

It started fishy and just went bed.
We started the tour at some fishy tour agency, the tour guide was not knowledgeable at all and walk with her pajama.
We just went from one place to place, no explanation and barley any interaction from the guide.
One of our friends could not have pork, and mentioned it again and again. However, in the end with one of the dishes had pork…

If you are interested in Vietnamese food culture and especially the Vietnamese street kitchen culture, this is an absolutely must do experience.
Our guide Rosie introduced us to different traditional Vietnamese street food specialities and to Vietnamese culture in general. She did this in a very open minded and humoristic way.

Our Hanoi food tour with Mango was our favorite part of our Asia trip so far! Every single place she took us was incredibly delicious and she taught us the history of everything we ate. She also took us sightseeing around Hanoi landmarks too which was so fun (and left more time to digest in between meals!). Mango is an absolute delight and knows so much. Could not recommend more highly!

My husband and I did the Hanoi Street food motorbike tour. We had the best time. Trying food in a variety of little local eateries was such a treat. Wizzing around the hectic streets of Hanoi was exhilarating and we had the utmost confidence in our drivers. Rosie was a fantastic guide; very knowledgeable, excellent English and great company. It was the highlight of our Vietnamese holiday. We would highly recommend.

We arrived in Hanoi and our first night we started with this street food tour. When you just arrive in the old quarter, it is difficult to choose the good options for dinner. This tour was the perfect solution.
Violet, our guide, showed as around in the old quarter and let us taste some of the best street food dishes. We did seven or eight stops, and the food was everywhere excellent.
Besides this, Violet also teached us how to cross the streets in Vietnam, which was a great help the next couple of days! :)

My wife thought I would enjoy zipping around Hanoi on the back of a scooter with pretty Vietnamese girls. She was right! Mango is a great storyteller, knows Vietnam's history, and takes us to enjoy many different foods. The girls weave their scooters through Hanoi's crazy traffic and a big Aussie bloke like me felt perfectly safe on the back.
One word of warning - don't eat breakfast or lunch before your tour - although you're tasting only small morsels at each stop, there's a lot of stops! Each foodstop was different with the speciality indicated in the name of the restaurant. And each food style is delicious.
Pick-up from the hotel on vespers and the fun began. Three of us on our tour shared Mango's stories and descriptions of the food. It's about everyday tasty food - not bugs or weird stuff.
Thoruoughly recommend as an introduction to Hanoi. Mango is funny, entertaining and made our night.
