Travelers are often quick to realize just how different cuisine is from one place to the next, and the Hanoi Street Food Tour is an experience that gives travelers a first hand taste of that gustatory variance. The local tour takes people through the hidden gems of Hanoi's vibrant street food culture, helping them to "see and eat like a Hanoian," as the company slogan avers.
The Hanoi Street Food Tour is guided by local Hanoians, who provide some history about the sights as well as taking those on the tour to the best urban kitchens. The tour has a focus beyond the Vietnamese dishes that have spread beyond the Southeast Asian nation, eschewing pho, banh mi, and Vietnamese coffee in favor of truly novel and local fare.
