We ( family of 4) did the vegetarian street food tour w Jasmine. Amazing day. Great food as well as loads of information / history about Hanoi. We loved it. Jasmine was great and gave us so many tips for Hanoi , going above and beyond ! You won’t regret this tour.
Our two guides were SO incredibly nice and lovely, it was our first day it Asia at all, we were jetlagged as can be and still had such a good time.
We are very thankful. They even provided some locations after the tour.
Absolute recommendation, maybe even the first thing when you arrive (as we did), so you know more about the city.
This tour was amazing from start to finish. I’ll admit I’m not normally a tour person but walking around the streets of Hanoi tasting the amazing vegan options the city has to offer was like an evening out with a friend. Vu is an excellent storyteller and shares his passion of food and his country so beautifully. The food is incredible and visiting local spots means short conversations with locals too. I would say if you love vegan food and local life, this tour is a must do when you visit Hanoi - thank you Vu!
Show up hungry - I went on the same evening as another solo traveller so we shared everything and it was still a lot of (great) food. What makes it 5 stars for me is that it isn't just eating - its the information sharing in between restaurants - we learned a lot!
The tour with Kien and An was really nice.
They showed us corners of the old town that we would probably never have seen alone.
The choice of food was also great and we went home full. We always learned a little bit about the history of each restaurant and the food, which we really liked.
Kien and An are super personable and nice. We had a lot of fun together and would recommend the tour 100%.
Best regards, Flo & Natalie
We had a really cool afternoon and ate super delicious. The atmosphere was super relaxed, we felt like we were traveling with friends, learned a lot and had fun. I can only recommend to anyone!
Had a great time with Vu and Rose 🙂 they took us to some great local food places and customised it based on our requirements. Also great conversation and insights into the local culture. Highly recommended.
This tour was the highlight of my trip to the Northern Vietnam. Kien is friendly, hospitable and helpful.
Not only we went to different places and tried out a lot of unique dishes but also immersed ourselves in many interesting stories of the ancient city told by our guide.

Easier
Vegan and vegetarian food and drinks
For guests who eat meat, many food tours have a lot of dishes to pick from. But it’s not always easy for vegetarians to find a food tour that fits their diet. That’s why we make sure that everyone can have a great food tour experience, no matter what they eat. We make it easy too, by giving vegetarian-friendly options so everyone can have a great time.
More than 10+ locations
Small group
The maximum group size is 8 people (though usually, we have 4-6 participants). Smaller groups make it easier to explore hidden gems, ask the host questions, and engage in meaningful conversations about history and politics. This is not possible with larger tour groups.

Yến was a wonderful guide through the local spots of Hanoi. We ate a range of delicious treats, including local delicacies and tasty desserts. Yến was friendly, insightful and funny, she answered all of our questions and gave us some wonderful tips. I would highly recommend this vegan food tour.
Martyn verified
I’d definitely recommend this tour. Took us to some lovely local restaurants which didn’t look vegan friendly but actually had some amazing food. Add to the amazing food some great information about Hanoi/Vietnam history and some interesting locations you wouldn’t find, then this tour is definitely worth it.
