Private Street food tour Hanoi with Duy.

Two couples had a private street food tour . Our guide, Duy, was so polite and kind. He took us to places we would never have found. We had 6 different food items and coffee at Train Street . All different and delicious. We went down a secret alley to find a hidden gem of the most delicious chicken pho . He provided local knowledge and discussed Vietnamese culture. Cam om Duy.

Response from the operator: Dear sir, Thank you so much for joining our services. Your nice words for us as the incentive that help us to maintain and improve our high qualities of tours. All the best regards, VTH Travel team

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic Private Food Tour with Duy in Hanoi!

We had an incredible private food tour in Hanoi with Duy as our guide. From start to finish, he was friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel completely looked after. Duy took us to some amazing local spots we would never have found or thought to try on our own — every single dish was delicious! His passion for Vietnamese cuisine really shone through, and he made the experience fun, relaxed, and authentic. We learned so much about the food and local culture while enjoying some of the best meals we had in Vietnam. If you’re visiting Hanoi and want to experience the real local flavors, we highly recommend booking a tour with Duy — you won’t be disappointed!

NOAH, Your no 1 choice for a guide everytime.

Arrived in Hanoi and decided straight off to book a tour. We lucked out and had Noah as a guide. What a fabulous introduction to Hanoi and Vietnam. Our food needs were catered for (gluten free and dairy free) and we had the best time ever. I feel we were taken the extra mile. Nothing was a problem, we visited all sorts of nooks and crannies. If I go back to Hanoi, I will track you down Noah, you are so warm and welcoming, making us feel more like family than visitors.

Delicious food and amazing guide.

Châu was amazing, we ate over 7 types of traditional cuisines at 5 different traditional eateries in Hanoi. The food was delicious, very fresh and also at reputable establishments that have been run by many generations of families. Our guide tailored the experience to our tastes and also needs as my daughter has allergies. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the restaurants, the dishes and the local area. We learnt a lot about Vietnam and his experiences which gave the tour a very friendly feel. Châu is very good at English and is very lively and funny. I recommend taking this tour at the beginning of your stay so that you become accustomed to the dishes and learn what to order if you are not familiar with Vietnamese cuisine.

Response from the operator: HI there, thank you very much for your fabulous review on our product. Your comment is our incentive to make services even better! best regards, VTH Travel team

HANOI SPECIAL CUISINE PRIVATE TOUR (Beyond your expectation! -Top notch cuisine): questions travelers ask

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

How much does HANOI SPECIAL CUISINE PRIVATE TOUR (Beyond your expectation! -Top notch cuisine) cost?

+

Prices start at $39 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 SPECIAL CUISINE PRIVATE TOUR (Beyond your expectation! -Top notch cuisine) take?

+

Plan for about 3 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 SPECIAL CUISINE PRIVATE TOUR (Beyond your expectation! -Top notch cuisine) worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 14 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 SPECIAL CUISINE PRIVATE TOUR (Beyond your expectation! -Top notch cuisine)?

+

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 SPECIAL CUISINE PRIVATE TOUR (Beyond your expectation! -Top notch cuisine) suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 3-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book HANOI SPECIAL CUISINE PRIVATE TOUR (Beyond your expectation! -Top notch cuisine)?

+

Around 5 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does HANOI SPECIAL CUISINE PRIVATE TOUR (Beyond your expectation! -Top notch cuisine) 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 SPECIAL CUISINE PRIVATE TOUR (Beyond your expectation! -Top notch cuisine)?

+
