We really enjoyed this experience. The food was great and Massi was full of information about each dish and Hanoi. We didn't get to see a train running at Train Street due to scheduling however our guide gave us a timetable and a recommend coffee stop.

Messi did a wonderful job of taking us to restaurants we would have never found on our own and ordering very tasty fresh dishes. His commentary was engaging, informative, and fun. You will feel like a local not only with what you eat but the vibe and feel and who else is eating in the restaurant. Messi is organized, polite, a good listener to give you the experience you want while adding cultural details to make the experience even more interesting.
It was a great tour! We very much enjoyed the food and Messi was very knowledgable! We highly recommend it to anyone that’s looking for authentic cuisine
food was so amzing with reasonalbe price. This food tour was an absolutely fantastic experience that exceeded all my expectations!
Absolutely loved our experience, Jenna was amazing and super helpful throughout the whole process. Highly recommend
Jenna was FANTASTIC! She asked for our preferences in advance to craft the perfect itinerary, was super punctual and friendly and made us feel warmly welcomed. Her English was PERFECT and she shared a lot of information about Vietnam and typical food with us. She accepted all of our requests and always made sure we were at ease, helped us cross the streets and took care of us at every moment, suggesting us the best recipes and explaining what we were eating in detail. She was talkative and sweet, but also very discreet and calm, and took a lot of pictures of us before we could even ask! Everything tasted SO GOOD, and we were extremely full and satisfied at the end of the tour, enjoying our egg coffee at Train Street in the best atmosphere ever (she also waited patiently with us for the train to pass). The tour lasted 3 full hours and was so pleasant and interesting that we would love to do it again! Highly recommended, thank you Jenna for everything and keep up with your great work ♥️
We had a great time with Messi. He showed us many places in old quarter and train street for 3+ hours. His food selection was excellent, and customised to our preference. He also explained history and tradition of Vietnam.
Love the food trip and the food. Jenna took me to have and enjoy wonderful food.i specifically requested pho, bun cha fried spring rools and egg coffee. She is such a sweet nice girl friendly and polite. Even if I told her thst it's ok to leave me she insisted tsking me home. Thanks again Jenna.
Great food tour in Hanoi! Messi was amazing showing us all the delicious food that can be found in Hanoi. Would highly recommend this tour.
Messi was brilliant. My girlfriend and I loved the experience. We tried lots of new foods and were given a great history lesson.
Very nice host Jenna, young and enthusiastic, gave us all room for our wishes and took us along six or seven places (and dishes) that we wouldn’t have found - or entered - ourselves. Great experience!
Had an amazing time with Jenna! Just the two of us, so it felt like hanging out with a local friend. Loved all the food, especially the Bún Chả – unforgettable! Highly recommend this tour.
Had a lovely time with Doris! She is an excellent guide with great taste in food. Gave us also a lot of history and fun facts about the food and Hanoi. Thanks a lot!
Did a great tour with Jenna , She gave a combi of food, an historical info, we loved every minute of it. Keep up the good work Jenna
We had a great walking tour with Jenna, had some great tastes (salad, fish, meat, etc) and finished of with a fantastic egg coffee. Really recommend going on a tour with her!
Ryan our tour guide was brilliant! Incredibly helpful, fun and charming. The tour was very enlightening and we learnt a great deal about the food and culture. Ideal for all ages 10/10!! Guy and Jayne Didsbury, Manchester
Amazing tour with Mia Just my husband and myself Awesome food, Very informative Great way to get your bearings around Old Quarter… Mia is the best ❤️
Amazing tour!! Thanks to our tour guide, John we finally know a little bit more about Vietnamese food, culture and ways of living. He was such an amazing guide. I ate a lot of amazing plates and the conversation was great. Thank you!
Messi was amazing!! He took me to some really cool local spots where I got to try traditional and authentic Vietnamese cuisine. I also got to learn about Vietnamese culture and we had some great conversations. I recommend this one! I’d say bring a friend if you’re not comfortable being alone, but Messi did a great job at giving me a really unique 1:1 experience so it was no bother at all.
Jennifer was phenomenal! We really enjoyed that it was just us so we got to really have some great conversations while enjoying the different foods. She also has a beautiful singing voice!
Janna a cute lovable girl, polite, prepared, we spent a wonderful afternoon asagianto Vietnamese food
The Guide John took us through old quarter for 3.5 hours. We have seen a lot of this old part of Hanoi this way and tasted many things. From sweet to savoury snacks and meals. We were told a lot about these meals, from ingredients to origin. After 6 stops with delicious dishes and drinks we ended up on trainstreet. It was a top food tour!
Food tour in old Hanoi, very nice to discover the neighborhood and a good first approach to Vietnamese cuisine. To do from the first days of the stay! Special thanks to Jenna with whom we had a great time (3h circuit) and who adapted to our desires.
Super good tour to discover the cuisine of Vietnam. It is tailored to your own wishes and what you like. Jenna did a great job and explained everything well. Highly recommended!
