I really liked this tour. It felt very light which was perfect. Many people doing this will be newly arriving in Vietnam. It offers some gentle background to the history and you taste some of Hanoi’s key dishes. Lana was a great guide for us.

We had a brilliant food tour with Finn and couldn’t recommend the tour and him enough. Not only did we get to try so many amazing local Vietnamese dishes, but we also learned a lot about the history and culture of Vietnam along the way. Finn was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and happy to answer every question we had. The amount of food included was fantastic and definitely worth the money. Every stop felt authentic and well chosen, and the whole experience was relaxed, fun, and informative. Thanks again, Finn!

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Hotel pickup in Hanoi. Crossing Vietnam Tour confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in. The collection window is usually a little wider than a fixed minute, because the driver is working a route around several hotels.
The price does not cover additional drinks, extra portion, personal expense and tips. Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
Expect uneven ground, mud after rain and some climbing. Trainers with grip are the minimum and walking boots are better. The pace follows the group, so tell your guide early if you want it slower rather than at the point you are struggling.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.
