    Poor street food experience

    My feedback to the company Feedback: I have done 3 street food tours in Hanoi and Ho Chi Min this being my second visit to your beautiful country. Last nights street food /train tour was the worst I have done. The train experience was great but the eateries we went to were simply awfull. To have spent so much money for 4 people on what turned out to be extremely poor was a shame. The first restaurants main ( and only) dish was pork. We do not eat pork so was given a tasteless egg alternative. We then had to walk 15-20 min to go to the shopping centre to catch a taxi to get to the train street. We needed 2 taxis and we were dropped off at the “wrong” shop so had to buy our own drinks. We then waited to get taxis back to the shopping centre, walk another 15 min and have an average second dish. After that we walked back past the shopping centre to the final eaterie where again the bread Bahn was full of air and tasteless. To pay $64 per person for this experience was terrible. Clearly you need to improve your choices of eateries. It was nothing like we experienced before. I can not recommend your service

    Hanoi Street Food Tour with Train Street Visit: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Hanoi Street Food Tour with Train Street Visit cost?

    +

    Prices start at $20 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 Street Food Tour with Train Street Visit 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 Street Food Tour with Train Street Visit worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 8 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 Street Food Tour with Train Street Visit?

    +

    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 Street Food Tour with Train Street Visit suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Hanoi Street Food Tour with Train Street Visit?

    +

    Around 3 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 Street Food Tour with Train Street Visit 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.
