Old Quarter Nightlife : Other parts of Hanoi might quiet down at night but the Old Quarter is where night owls head to. Street food & drink vendors, ( Night market on Friday, Saterday, Sunday), live music, discos, clubs and bars as well as decent karaoke joints are the norm here.Though the numbers might be limited compared to other large Asian cities, what’s on offer here is well enough to keep people from all walks of life happy and university students, office staff and expats are among the friendly crowds.

Really enjoyed this tour. We had 7 stops at small local eateries having taste's of different Vietnamese food including local pancake, beef noodle soup, sweet donuts and egg coffee. It gave us the chance to visit the type of places we might not have visited on our own.
The tour was well led by our host, Sarah who was friendly and knowledgeable. We had a couple of Europeans on the tour who were also good company which made for a pleasant evening. Plenty of good food and some interesting insights into Vietnamese life from Sarah.

My partner and I had the best day ever in Hanoi because of this tour. Our tour guide Summi took us to such awesome spots that we would not have known about and she explained so much to us about the wonderful history of Hanoi. We felt like locals for the day :) I will definitely be recommending this tour to friends and family who are wanting to visit Vietnam! Thanks again Summi, you were amazing!!!

My partner and I booked a private tour with Sunni. I am definitely not someone with experience on a scooter so I was somewhat apprehensive before beginning our tour… however wanted to explore all Hanoi had to offer. From the very first moment, Sunni made me me feel comfortable and at ease. I instantly felt safe travelling by scooter (in fact safer than walking as a pedestrian) not a detail was missed throughout the tour! Not only did we try amazing local street food which we would never of discovered alone however it felt as if we had a private sightseeing tour. It was honestly one of the most incredible experiences of my life. Such a highlight of our trip and it’s only been day 2! I highly recommend this your to anyone wanting to explore the city like a true local. Thank you so much Sunni and Tracey!!!

Excellent Guide, food was interesting and enjoyable including the sand worms! Worthwhile tour and the food did vary but mostly enjoyable.

It started fishy and just went bed.
We started the tour at some fishy tour agency, the tour guide was not knowledgeable at all and walk with her pajama.
We just went from one place to place, no explanation and barley any interaction from the guide.
One of our friends could not have pork, and mentioned it again and again. However, in the end with one of the dishes had pork…

Tour company was not did not reply to any communication at all. Had to meet them at their office in a busy area. Tour guide did her best but only 1 noodle place was good. The rest wasn’t great at all.

Whilst we live in Hanoi, we thought it would be fun to explore the city on a food tour and check out some of the places we might not be brave enough to try on our own! Our English speaking guide was called Moon, and she was awesome.
Think we ended up going to 7 different places, and we were left super happy, full, and with loads of great insights. So recommended both for tourists (whenever COVID travel restrictions are lifted), and those who live here.
.... we have pre-teen kids. They loved some of the dishes, but a few weren’t to their taste. However, our guide was great at finding other options that worked for them

We arrived in Hanoi and our first night we started with this street food tour. When you just arrive in the old quarter, it is difficult to choose the good options for dinner. This tour was the perfect solution.
Violet, our guide, showed as around in the old quarter and let us taste some of the best street food dishes. We did seven or eight stops, and the food was everywhere excellent.
Besides this, Violet also teached us how to cross the streets in Vietnam, which was a great help the next couple of days! :)
