A wonderful foodie evening especially gluten free diets - We took this tour on our first evening to find out what we could eat and find a few great eateries. The range of food was very good. Alex was a lovely guy and very knowledgeable about the food, coeliac, the local area, culture and history. Alex met us at our hotel in the old quarter and walked us back safely. Both my husband and teenage daughter really enjoyed this tour also. I thoroughly recommend it.

A fun, informative and yummy tour - We enjoyed a fun, informative and yummy street food tour with gluten free options. Alex guided us to several places that specialised in particular foods eg chicken pho, eel, spring rolls and beef noodles, sweet soup for dessert, among others. Alex was warm, friendly and chatty and we learnt more about Vietnamese life.

Fantastic way to sample Hanoi Street Food! - Alex was brilliant - he understood Gluten free requirements and from the moment we booked everything was easy. We had such a wide variety of food, visiting lots of different places - including weird and wonderful desserts! Alex is thoughtful, personable and professional and made us feel so comfortable from the outset - just like catching up with an old friend!

Great gluten free food tour - Great experience - had a lot of good food and learned a lot. I have a gluten allergy, and Lyna was great about finding places where I would be safe. Definitely recommend — especially for people with gluten intolerances!

Best decision ever - We had the best time with our Guide Haiyan. It’s our First Asian Trip since our son got disgnosed with celiac disease and we have been worried a lot in advance. Haiyan showed us the best places and also had a great knowledge of the history of Vietnam. We loved every Minute. Thank you so much!

- Alex was very nice. He knows everything about Gluten, so I felt save as a celiac. The food was fantastic. We could wish things and he would adapt the Tour. Every Stop was nice and delicious. Do it! Its fantastic. For anyone with cealiac its a dream.

- A true highlight of our time in Hanoi. Travelling with celiac disease (needing gluten free food) never felt safer in Alex’s hands. Not only that but all the food was excellent - and we returned to several places later in our stay. You can tell that Alex is a true foodie and enjoys sharing his love of Vietnamese food. Loads of variation in both food and locations. Really enjoyable and knowledgeable company for the evening - highly recommended whether GF or not.
