This was the highlight of our trip! Rose was the best possible guide and taught us so much but also made it so much fun. We liked it so much that we ended up booking a cooking class with her as well, which I highly recommend. Don’t miss booking something with Rose if you are in Hanoi! (Edit: from June 2025, not 2026)

Package tour for families in Vietnam
We had an amazing family trip to Vietnam with our 2.5-year-old child. Everything was perfectly organized from beginning to end, which made the journey very comfortable and stress-free for our family.
A special thank you to Rose and her colleagues, especially Dat in Hoi An and our driver Thang. They were all extremely kind, professional, and very competent throughout the trip. Their support, organization, and friendliness made our experience even more enjoyable and memorable.
The itinerary was excellent and well balanced. Hanoi was vibrant and exciting, with great food and plenty to explore. Cat Ba Island was relaxing and family-friendly, and the Lan Ha Bay cruise was one of the highlights of our trip. The scenery was absolutely beautiful, the boat was comfortable, and the staff were very caring and attentive, especially with our little child.
Ninh Binh was peaceful and stunning, with incredible landscapes and enjoyable boat rides. Hoi An was charming and magical, especially in the evening with all the lanterns and atmosphere. It was also a great place to walk around with a young child.
All hotels, transportation, and activities were very well arranged, and everything ran smoothly and on time. We truly appreciated how easy and comfortable the whole experience was while traveling as a family with a toddler.
We highly recommend this Vietnam tour package for families looking for a beautiful, well-organized, and memorable trip through Vietnam.

Authentic Vietnamese Cooking Class in a Local Home
3 reasons we loved our market tour and cooking class with Rose:
1) This is a private tour and class, so no big group, lots of personal attention and plenty of opportunities to ask questions and customize the experience. We asked Rose about certain herbs and fruits in the market and without hesitation she bought them for us to try. Her assistant even went to the market to get us some extra good quality rice paper to take home.
2) The cooking class takes place at Rose's home, away from the tourist areas, so it feels like a very local experience. Almost like visiting friends.
3) This isn't just some vegetable chopping and stirring in a pot, but a real class where you learn actual techniques, like the best way to roll spring rolls. We've done other cooking classes in Thailand and Vietnam before but only now have we learned to do it properly.
But the main reason to choose this tour and class is Rose: sociable, funny, knowledgeable, proud of Vietnam and its cuisine and on top of that she speaks perfect English. Thanks again for one of the highlights of our trip. Cảm ơn!

Cooking at the home of Chef Rose in Hanoi
I was treated to a private cooking class in the home of Chef Rose - the kitchen was arranged as a professional space to teach yet was the family home - I met her charming daughter and other family members. We walked a few blocks to the local market to purchase ingredients. Each recipe was broken down I can definitely create these back at home in Chicago. This was all hands on - exactly what I wanted. Had a huge yummy meal I can’t believe I was so lucky!!!
If you are looking to cook while visiting Hanoi schedule time with Rose.

Favorite Hanoi Experience
My friends and I did the food tour with Rose (the guide) in Hanoi in the Old quarter. It was my favorite thing we have done in Vietnam. Rose was so knowledgeable about the food and cooking and taught us about Vietnam’s history and culture along the way. We tried everything from Pho to Banh Mi to ice cream with sticky rice. I could not recommend her enough!

Experience Authentic Vietnam
Rose and her team were simply top notch! She is very knowledgeable, passionate and truly cares about her clients. We did food tours, motorbike tours and a cooking class with her and all were amazing! She has her team all over Vietnam and can set up tours in many different cities. We really loved Vietnam, and Rose is a big reason why!!

Markets, cooking, eating...!
Loved this event...starting with a walk and taste through the local wet-market. Rose introduced us to the history and foods of the market. Then we followed her through the alleys and pathways of her village in the middle of the Hanoi metropolis! What an adventure that only a local can give. Great insights to her life and that of her community.
We helped her make some yum food and then eating...! Thanks to Rose and her beautiful family!!❤️

You must do this
A very, special and authentic experience not to be missed. Rose is warm, congenial and lovely. We had the very real experience of visiting her neighborhood, including the local market, and her home, with family present. It was an amazing experience to cook and share excellent food. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Rose and Roll with Locals💖

Humbling, exciting, stimulating!
We were absolutely overwhelmed by the reality of Rose and her team. Rose’s genuine leadership, and her humble manner made her very approachable. We felt we could ask her anything as questions popped into our heads. My outstanding memory is of our cooking experience, Rose opened her local community, her family and her home to us. We saw her heart, her cultural pride and her commitment to working hard. I'm not sure she gets to sleep. When her wee girl, Strawberry, led us back to our minibus puck up point we realised what a safecommunity Vietnam was.
Huyen and Mr Dat also reflected Rose’s enthusiasm and cultural strength, combined with a deep understanding of the importance of communication. We loved all the sights, tastes and interactions we took part in! ♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟♥️🌟
