Highly recommended, thank you Kun! - We did the vegan food tour together with our fantastic guide Kun. Kun carries a wonderful positive energy and knows an incredible amount about Hoi An. We learned so much about history but also nice and sometimes funny facts. We also went to local places and had fantastic vegan food. These were places that we would have been less likely to find ourselves and that makes them unique. Kun is funny, patient and has a warm heart. We had a wonderful first introduction to Vietnam through Kun and are grateful for everything she showed us. I wish everyone a guide like Kun. Highly recommended!

Excellent vegan tour - Kun provided an excellent vegan tour of Hoi An! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I learned so much about the food and the vendors and she made sure we were satisfied at each step of the way. Highly recommend for any vegan/ vegetarian visiting Hoi An!

Wonderful experience with an amazing guide! - My wife and I had a wonderful vegan food tour with our guide Khieu/Q. She is adorable, warm, friendly, and full of energy. She speaks perfect English, sounding like she grew up in California, even though she has never been there. I think getting to meet her and hear about her experience growing up in Hoi An, about her life and personal stories here were some highlights that really brought the tour to life, far beyond just a vegan food tour. It definitely felt like having bites to eat and chatting with a good old friend, even it was the first time we met her. I loved that we were able to eat inside the old family homes and meet the people who have lived there for generations, and hear about their stories behind the food - the old lady whose family makes the black sesame pudding, the family that makes the white rose dumplings and utterly delicious wontons, and the family that makes the Buddhist food. I'd highly recommend this experience.

Must do - Highly recommended! Brilliant intro to this lovely town. You’ll finish the tour very well-versed in local culture & food options - Vy really packed so much good stuff into a few hours. The weather was awful but she’s still so cheerful and enthusiastic, even in a downpour!

Fabulous food - I did this tour as soon as I arrived in Hoi An and it was really worthwhile. We tasted many of the bucket list items as we wander about the old town and the guide told wonderful stories about the food, Hoi An and her life as a young person in Vietnam. It felt like a she was friend by the end. Highly recommend

Fun evening, great food - I did the vegetarian food tour with Ahn. Messages and communication were excellent from the start. Ahn was flexible when I thought I needed to change the date of my tour. She was friendly, helpful and thoughtful. Her sunny personality and smile made the evening special. I loved each meal stop and got to try so many different meals. I asked Ahn to help me buy some snack foods and she was so accommodating. Ahn's English was excellent. It was a fun evening.

Great tour of local vegan food with lovely guide - It was an amazing tour with great food! Our tour guide Khieu (Q) was lovely and took us to many spots that we would never have gone to! She answered all of our questions with enthousiasm and also shared the history behind some of the food. All in all a great tour to have local vegan food.

Came for the food, went back with a friend - You must think that the most important part of a food tour is the food, which is true. I agree. But, I feel the guide is as important. Someone who can tell you the history and stories behind the food and it's people and also know the people. I was the only person at this food tour and my guide was Khieu who loves people, food and history. She's this ball of energy who took me around the old town, told me the stories behind the food. I don't think I'd have gone to these places and tried the food if it wasn't for this tour. Everything I had on the tour was delicious and had so much flavour. Khieu made the tour fun and by the end of the tour I had a full tummy and a friend. I highly recommend going for this tour! Do it on your first day here.

Do it! A brilliant experience - We had a fantastic time with Kun who was so knowledgeable, friendly and funny. We had some amazing food and got to try lots of fruits and coconut products in the market, Kun seems to know everyone! We also got to visit the kitchen of a family famous for their dish. I’ve done a few food tours whilst travelling and this one was by far the best so far, enjoy!
