    5 Star Experience

    My husband and I booked this tour after being referred by a family friend. Not only did this tour not disappoint, it actually exceeded every expectation of the tour we originally had. Bob, our guide, was absolutely fantastic. He showed us the most incredible food and restaurants in Hanoi and went out of his way to ensure we were getting a fully authentic Vietnamese experience. After spending the day with him, we shared a lot of laughs, and we now consider him a friend. This food tour was a highlight of our two week trip through Vietnam. Don't hesitate to book it and request Bob as your guide.

    Great variety of food....

    Great variety of food. All very flavorful. We went out to a few places after, and none as good as the places we went on this tour. Very knowledgeable guide. 10/10 would recommend.

    Lovely way to spend a few hours

    Thoroughly enjoyed this tour. Olaf was our guide and she was absolutely adorable. We went to 3 restaurants and a coffee place The first meal was Beef Pho, the 2nd was a dry pho with chicken (i loved it) and the 3rd was deep fried eel soup. We then tasted a lovely sweet creamy egg coffee. We Were with a lovely gang or people!

    Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hanoi.

    How much does Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $33 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hanoi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hanoi is not rushed.

    Is Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hanoi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hanoi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hanoi and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hanoi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Hanoi?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Hanoi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ha Giang Loop 3-Day Small Group - from Hanoi, (Group/Individual) HANOI STREET FOOD TOUR, Incense Village Quang Phu Cau, Hat Village and Hanoi City Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Hanoi?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Hanoi?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour?

    +

    Included: Bottled water provided during the tour to keep you hydrated; Private guide knowledgeable about Michelin-selected eateries and Vietnamese cuisine; and Tastings 6 to 8 different food stops (Cha Ca, Bun Cha, Pho, Egg Coffee, and more). Not included: Personal Expenses: Any additional food or drinks not specified in the itinerary; Gratuities: Tips for the tour, at your discretion; and Alcoholic Beverages: Any alcoholic drinks consumed during the tour. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 906 listed pickup locations in and around Hanoi. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Hanoi Michelin Selected Walking Food Tour if the weather is bad?

    +
