- Passenger7916960 contributionsHighly recommend!!!Wow! What an amazing experience for me and my family. We were picked up on time from our hotel in Old Town Hoí Ân and then we picked up (in a very organised fashion), additional participants on the way to meet up with our tour guide Trang. Trang spoke English very well and explained everything to all of us. We were the only family there as there were lots of couples in our group. Trang included my children and sparked up conversations with time. Highly recommend her if you are looking for an engaging guide. Trang walked us through the market and took her time to explain all of the food items, and answered questions we have on some different items in the marketplace. The in-depth knowledge of the history of certain items made the tour much more intriguing. Trang then bought us to ride the basket boats which was a great treat. We got to see other folks spinning in the baskets and also got to fish for some crab. My daughter caught one briefly before it jumped off. It was just the right amount of time on the boats. Then we were bought to our cooking class which floats (still) above the water where you were just passing by in the basket boat. Here you are welcomed by the smiling staff and then your class begins. We made some delicious fresh rolls, vegetable pancake, beef noodle salad and beef phó. Trang took her time explaining how to cook each item and we got to eat them immediately after each dish was complete. All the while she was attentively explaining why certain ingredients are used in order to balance against other flavours. When the class ended we were asked if we wanted to be dropped off at our hotel or the city center- which was a nice option. They also gifted us some traditional cooking chopsticks!! Lovely touch. All-in-all, the food was amazing, our guide was perfect and I highly recommend this tour. Our family will remember this forever!Written October 10, 2024

- vonderluster0 contributionsHeart-warming tour despite a rain dayWe had a lovely time with Tin Tin as our guide today. Despite the weather is raining very hard for large part of the day, she tried to guide us through the old town with high spirits. She's been very helpful with handling our needs, like guiding us to try the MOT drinks and buy ponchos or water shoes due to the rain. The food at the dinner was also delicious.Written October 9, 2024

- H7647MGjamesd0 contributionsGreat food and knowledgable guidesHad a great private tour for me and my mate with Anh and Quin. Compared to other tours i've done, this is more like hanging out with some new friends - in a very good way. Quin and Anh were knowledgeable about the food and Hoi An but this is not a cookie-cutter experience. Much more like hanging out with some friends and chatting about food, culture, and history. Doesn't get much better. It may seem obvious, but try to skip lunch before you go - there's so much food!Written October 8, 2024

The trip was booked for my through my Travel Agent Realistic Asia and i was contacted by Jackie, my local guide, earlier in the day to confirm the tour.
What a wonderful experience it was, Jackie was truly amazing and took me to some great hidden gems around the city. She also spoke a lot about the local culture and customs and gave me a truly local experience of Hoi An. After many many fantastic dishes we walked through the old town and she took me to a local "Bingo" game where one competes for a lantern to light on the lake. We ended the tour with a wonderful boat tour on the river in old town. When I first came to Hoi An, I was not sure I would like it as the city is very touristy, however the evening tour I did with Jackie showed me the best side of the city and I highly recommend anyone who is interested in great food to book this tour!

Gum was a great host. She was very knowledgeable about the local food, culture and history. She showed us so many foods and locations that we would never found on our own. It was a pleasure to spend time with her and to see her city through her eyes.

As tourism is still picking up post-pandemic I ended up being the only person on this tour, and I'm very grateful to Nancy for being willing to do the tour with just a day's notice. (I contacted the tour company through WhatsApp, which I recommend for last-minute bookings especially as a solo traveler). She was a friendly and engaging guide and I had a lot of fun and ate a lot of great food. It really is a lot of food, ten different dishes, totalling probably the equivalent of 2-3 normal meals. I went in hungry and was full to bursting by the end, but it was worth it to try tons of great local food at places I would have never made it to on my own. Highly recommended.

We were recommended this tour by Little Hoi An Boutique Hotel. We paid a little extra for a private tour so it was just my family of 3. Nancy was our guide who reached out to me in the morning (our tour was scheduled for 3pm) who asked us to come ‘as hungry as possible’ which we appreciated because there was a lot of food to taste! Nancy was absolutely amazing. She is truly knowledgable and shared so much with us - not just about the local cuisine but about Vietnamese culture, traditions and her own personal experiences. Son was running around before and during our drops to ensure there was minimal wait for food and so Nancy didn’t have to take time away from us. It’s evident this isn’t their first rodeo! They provided us bottled water, wet tissues, ponchos and we appreciated how careful there were getting us safely across roads. We also enjoyed the way Nancy taught us some basic Vietnamese. Given how small our group was, we had the opportunity to have better conversations with Nancy and we shared so many laughs which we loved. Highly recommend. Thank you Nancy & Son!

Nancy was absolutely the best guide! We have taken a few different food tours in Vietnam and this was by far our favorite! Definitely worth the price, we had 11 different dishes, and Nancy took us to some hidden local gems outside of the crowded Old Town. She explained in detail what the different dishes were, how they are prepared, and when they are traditionally consumed. For each of the 11 dishes she had also ordered vegetarian alternatives ahead of time to accomodate one of us - and they were all true substitutes, not just the same dish without meat.
We loved every moment and dish of it! Thank you Nancy!
PS make sure you truly show up with an empty stomach, by the end of it you will be full :)

We had a fantastic few hours with Nancy Vi around antique Hoi An. The food was exceptional and she was able to cater for vegetarian needs. It was like touring the city with a friend, Nancy shared her life with us, as well as some incredibly tasty food that we absolutely wouldn't have found by ourselves. These stalls and restaurants are run by skilled, passionate people creating recipes developed through generations which will make your taste buds sing! There is nothing more Nancy could have done and we will book another tour with her in a heartbeat when we return to Hoi An.

We absolutely loved our experience with Vi and the walking food tour through Hoi An. She brought us to places that we would have never (ever) found on our own and every single dish was absolutely delicious!! She introduced us to the wonderful people who made the food and has so much knowledge about Hoi An, the local culture and stories behind the food and the restaurants. Vi was also more than happy to provide recommendations for other things to do in Hoi An and the surrounding area. Would 100% recommend this as a must-do activity for any foodie visiting the city. Thanks Vi, we will be back!!

We absolutely loved Nancy’s private street food tour. The food was authentic to Hoi An and so delicious. Very professional, good hygiene and we also loved the way Nancy told the background history and stories of local family’s who make or grow the food. Cannot recommend this tour more highly!

What an amazing food tour! Nancy was a fantastic guide and worked with us to make sure we could join the tour when our transport to Hoi An was a little late. The food and drink at each of the spots was amazing, and Nancy was great about telling us the history of the dish and restaurant, plus instructed us on how to eat certain foods we weren't too familiar with. Several of the restaurants were definitely places we would not have found on our own which made the tour even more special. Nancy was also kind enough to offer suggestions for places to go to try other dishes we did not get to on the tour. I highly recommend adding this tour to your trip to Hoi An!

Nancy Vi was a fantastic host who was extremely responsive in communication and providing tips for local foods and businesses. She was professional and very knowledgeable and her husband was also very helpful behind the scenes. We had so much fun walking and eating our way through a part of beautiful Hoi An. We would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to embrace local Hoi Ăn cuisine - a must do!!!

Hi. Do you do private tours for 2 people? Looking to book for Saturday evening. Thanks
Written October 24, 2019
I took group tour and it was myself and one family(3 adults and 5-6 yrs child).
I assume you can ask the tour company if the private 2 people tour is possible or not.
(my impression is they are relatively flexible for that although no idea for the fee.) sorry for the late response (as I did not notice)
