TASTE OF HANOI - ウォーキングストリートフードアドベンチャー

This has been the highlight of our trip so far. We learnt so much about Hanoi and its old quarter. We tasted so much delicious food that we never would have found by ourselves. Our lovely guide Chi made us feel like old friends that she was showing her beautiful city to. Highly recommend.

The street walking tour was just perfect !!! My guide Casey was really interesting and not only for the food parts for interesting fact on the city , the booking was easy and the organisation was perfect , its was beyond my expectations !!!

We had a great family tour with Chi. She introduced us to traditional foods we possibly wouldn't have tried, which were great. Our kids particularly liked getting to choose a wooden stamp to be engraved with the names and painting the wooden dragonflies. Of our 3 weeks travelling through various areas of Vietnam, this tour was definitely a highlight for us.

I highly recommend this tour! Casey (Chau) was our guide and she took us off the beaten track of the old quarter to places we would never have known about. We tried dishes we would not have previously thought to try. But we are so pleased we did! We came away with full tummies, big smiles and armed with a full appreciation of local dishes. The food was fresh and delicious, Casey was fun and engaging with excellent English and knowledge of the history and provenance of the food we ate.

We had a lovely time stoping at very good street food, and gained a lot of knowledge from our guide.

Casey was our exceptional guide from Beyond Vietnam who took us to hidden gems throughout the Old Quarter. We were treated to a variety of delicious dishes and lots of stories about the food, culture and history of the area. Casey’s enthusiasm for her job makes her a wonderful ambassador for Hanoi. Highly recommend

Our family had a great day with Casey and Sienna on the Hanoi Family Quest. It was our son’s fifth birthday and he was very excited about the breadth of experiences; from trying local foods, seeing and experiencing local culture and creative opportunities - our guides were wonderful, thoughtful hosts that shared their own personal experiences and stories, infused with a fun and adventurous tour. They were fantastic with our little ones ranging from 2-7 years old (we had four kiddos with us) and kept them entertained, engaged and were playful during the four hour experience. They also presented our son with a birthday cake to celebrate the occasion. Thank you for such a special tour of this beautiful city.

When you read about food tours, it can be overwhelming. There are so many to choose from. We wanted to use a small company and to have an authentic experience of the food culture . We made the right choice. Beyond Vietnam is exactly as they describe themselves. They are beyond the tourist places . In fact you will not see another tourist in the places where you eat. Casey, our guide, was so sweet and took great care of us. I am a foodie and my husband is not. I explained to him , that a good tour is not onky about eating, it teaches so much about Vietnam culture . He was happy that he came. I can’t imagine a better experience seeing the old quarter. I left with a full stomach as well as a full heart .

Casey our guide was fantastic. Her knowledge of the food, how to eat it, the culture and society of Vietnam and the visit to the temple along the route were really good. The food choices were lovely and we really enjoyed the experience. Some of the food we had was Bahn Gio, Bahn Ran (my favourite), Bahn Goi, Bahn Tom, Che (a sweet soup) and others. Thank you so much for the experience.

We traveled to Hanoi as a family, bringing our adult son along because he lives in Japan and we don’t get to see him very much. I decided to book a food tour of Hanoi because our son’s a foodie and I remembered watching Anthony Bourdain and Barack Obama meet for a memorable meal in a tiny restaurant in Hanoi for Bourdain’s travel-food show. That meal left an indelible mark on me. Eating the food the locals eat is the best entree into a foreign land. So true! This is the approach our tour guide Casey took with us! She was bubbly and enthusiastic and had great pride in her country. We tried a bit of everything at the food stalls and buying from street vendors! It was exciting to travel along with her. Spending a fast paced evening running through the Old Quarter was an experience we’ll always treasure! 🥰
