Incredible experience
Our guide was fantastic and very personable. She took her time explaining each dish to us and gave us a lot of insight into the culture and history of the Vietnamese people. All of the food we had was incredible. The atmosphere was amazing and we discovered a lot of hidden, authentic Vietnamese establishments that were off the beaten path. Would definitely do this again when we return to Hanoi.

Do it!
Ben my guide was great! Very professional and knew what he was talking about. He asked me questions as well and was very sweet when crossing the roads. The food was amazing! It is nice to have someone walk you around because most of the time you have no idea what they are selling. Really nice tour and worked recommend it for every traveler.

Smiling beautiful friendly guide
Trung guide started the tour by showing how to comfortably cross the road in complex Hanoi. The tour was comfortable and enjoyable with a good manner as the first impression and a beautiful smile. The guide seemed to be loved by many people with good humanity. That means it was comfortable. Finally, you will be able to answer some questions qualitatively so that you can have fun during the rest of your trip to Hanoi. When I return to Hanoi, I'm thinking about a food tour with Trung Guide. It was an interesting tour to see the corner of Hanoi. I hope you are happy and good. Thank you today ^^

very unhealthy food locations
the food stops we made were totally unhealthy conditions. most of us come from countries were we can assume that the sanitary and food safety standards are enforced, well not here. My wife and I are in the food business and it was upsetting to see employees grab food items with dirty hands and then serve them to us. These food shops would be immediately shut down by food safety inspectors in any state of the USA. the agency Trip Advisor should select food shops for their tours, that at least meet minimum food safety standards, the health of the participating tourists is in serious jeopardy.

Dear olivos63 Greetings from Hanoi Local Food Tour! We would like to thank you for comments alerting us about the shortcoming on the tour you've experienced. On behalf of Hanoi Local Food Tours team, I also would like to sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you meet during your trip and shortcomings which make your journey on our tour become less perfect as in your expectation. However, we would like to take some explanation about the negative comments that you mentioned in the review. We do hope the explanation will give you another angle on this issue. Hanoi Local Food Tours aim to bring our customers the street food tours which focusing on real local experience, and it's not only about the food , it's also the insight of local culture and lifestyle. We want to show our guests the unique features of Hanoi culture and its food as the way it is to any Hanoian. Most food street locations have the same way of serving, and this is also one of the unique features of the local street vendors in Vietnam. We hope you understand that the standard in the USA is completely different from standard of Vietnam and especially the street food and we are aware that it can not meet the expectation of all travelers. On the other side you can see many of our customers come and experience the same thing you did and had the same food as you had and they all happy and leave us positive comments because they are aware what is street food and put more attention on the local experience and dare to try new thing. We totally understand your point but everything exists with its own reason and the street food so. Once again, we would like to apologize you very much for unhappy experiences on our tour. We also hope you could understand the shortcoming of local culture that we cannot control. Hanoi Local Food Tours Team

Enjoyable tour of Hanoi Street Food
My wife and I were picked up at the Paradise Hotel by our guide Trung Nguyen (at the end of the night we voted him King), and we got right to the street food starting with Sticky Rice, then on through another 5 stops. Trung took the time to educate us on both the food origins and Vietnamese history. He even help my wife shop for a pair of sunglasses with great advice. We ended the night right near the hotel with some mango and ice cream dessert. Very enjoyable, great conversation, and we recommend highly!
