Quality local food experience! - Our guide, Brian, took us to small local restaurants and food stalls that we would have never found on our own. Our new all-time favorite dishes are ones that we never knew existed. If you want to have a more authentic food experience, then this tour is a must do,

Fantastic food trip in Hanoi - Myself and my husband really enjoyed our food walking tour with Jennie. We got to try food and drinks we hadn’t experienced before. Jennie has really good English, is very knowledgeable and most importantly lots of fun. We highly recommend this tour and if you can get Jennie, that’s an added bonus

Unique dishes and some sight seeing - We did a private food tour with Brian, and he showed us less well known (but still very delicious) dishes, including unique creations from some of the vendors. He’s extremely knowledgeable in Vietnamese culture and history and was so much fun to be with. He also took us to see some sites including the longest alleyway in Hanoi and the last city gate. Thanks for such a great tour!

Dodging bikes with tasty bites in Hanoi - Thoughtful, wide-ranging street food tour in Hanoi with a bunch of fun commentary on the historical and social context for the foods we tried. Bahn mi que, banh xeo, and egg coffee that traces lineage to the OG were highlights. A big night out! And Brian, the guide, has other great tours (Knifemaking! Coffee! Beer!) on offer as well!

Excellent must do tour! Feel like a local with a local ! - Brian did an excellent job of showing us the best local places to in Hanoi and many specialty places and foods we never would have found on our own. It’s like having a friend that lives on Hanoi show you the places only the locals know. He was fun, informative and also told us a condensed history of Vietnam. He brought us to 10 different places ! Amazing! He also kept in contact with us the rest of the trip and while in Hoi An and gave us tips for there as well and other local contacts for tailors and other tours in other cities. We also took one of his knife making trips which was awesome and made our own knives - a highlight of our entire trip. Excellent host and tour!

One of a kind tours - I booked a couple of private tours through A Taste of Hanoi and couldn’t be more pleased. Brian does a fantastic job crafting experiences that feel unique and far from the typical tourist circuit, and he has a wonderful team of guides who bring everything to life. I’ve been on a lot of food tours, and this was by far the best. I highly recommend A Taste of Hanoi—I can’t wait to come back and try more of their one-of-a-kind offerings.

Amazing food experience - We ate so much food! Son was such an amazing guide. If you like trying food that is unique to Hanoi then tour is for you. Son took us to local eateries and gave us a true foodie experience trying different food and drinks we did not know existed. Son was also very knowledgeable about Vietnam and excellent guide. We learned a lot about history, architecture and most importantly food! We finished the tour VERY full, knowing a lot more about the culture and history, and ready to experience and try more food. We highly recommend this tour and thank Son for giving us this amazing experience.
