Full description

This is a 3-hour experience in Hanoi, built around Hanoi Old Quarter. It is run by VIETNAM TRIP 24h, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Japanese food tours work because the best places are small, unmarked and full of regulars, and a guide who orders for you opens them. An izakaya crawl covers yakitori, sashimi, karaage and the local pours of sake, shochu and highballs across three or four counters in an evening; a ramen walk explains the broths, tonkotsu, shoyu, miso and shio, and the regional styles. Most places seat eight to twelve and tours run six to eight guests for that reason. Vegetarians should say so when booking, because dashi stock is fish and hidden in almost everything; halal-certified options exist but are fewer.

The price covers Walking tour, English tour guide, 4-6 vegan local dishes, 1 bottle of water and Visit Train Street to see train pass by. It does not cover Extra drinks or wine, Personal expenses and Tips, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

VIETNAM TRIP 24h sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with VIETNAM TRIP 24h before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Linh was an excellent guide. She and Sarah met us on time with cold water. We visited four food stops with a drink on train street. The reserved table on train street was perfectly timed for when the train came through. All the food was delicious and Linh made sure everything was suitable for us as vegetarians. Their company was also great and we enjoyed learning about culture and history as we walked and about the food and how to eat it. Thank you so much Linh and Sarah - we would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Hanoi!

Our guide Kevin was amazing. He was so knowledgable. We didn’t feel rushed at all and he brought us to the best places. What we were most impressed by was he was able to cater to my partner’s egg allergy. We always struggle with this in holidays so was much appreciated. Thanks Kevin! Can’t recommend more

Our guide Kevin brought us to 6 different shops and we tried food from places I wouldn't have thought of going. He made the tour informative and interesting, and was able to cater to our dietary requirements. The tour was very smooth and Kevim even managed to book us a hood seat at the train street! This is a good tour if you are interested in trying local dishes in Hanoi.

We had a brilliant tour with Phan. He was very friendly, went out of his way to find food to suit our needs and told us lots of interesting things. Thank you very much for the lovely evening.

Had a lovely time and the food was great. I was the only one who booked the vegan tour for the day so I was offered a private tour or to go with the meat tour, I’d imagine the food would’ve been even better on the vegan tour 😋 and thank you Kien, you were a great guide, good luck with everything in the future!

We had an amazing time on our food tour with Kien, who was so fun and kind! All of the dishes we tried were delicious and gave us a great variety of different street foods. It includes multiple main courses and desserts, and Kien suggested tons of other places and foods we could come back to try on our own. Highly recommend this experience!

The guide was nice but food not great. We went to 5 places including train st for a drink but not the good part of train st between buildings. Portions were tiny and probably only added up to a few dollars of food . not worth it to get a banh mi that has egg and 1 piece of pickle. 1 rice noodle dish that, thank God I asked because it came with fish sauce (which you should not have to ask on vegie/ vegan tour!!!) and 1 small bowl with a few veggies and some noodle. Most of the time was spent walking to the places. honestly you could have just gone to any food place and asked for vegetarian. The

The price does not cover extra drinks or wine, personal expenses 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.
Yes, if you say so at booking. Fish sauce is in most dishes, so vegetarian, vegan and shellfish allergies need naming specifically; the guide swaps stalls and dishes. 'Khong cay' means not spicy. Street stalls with a queue and fast turnover are the safest, which is exactly where a good guide takes you.
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.
