Must try!
I enjoyed our class! Pa was a great guide and explains the class well. We were 12 in the class so the discussion was more focused. The class took around 2 hours. We tried 4 drinks and 3 flavors of rice wine. Definitely a must try when in Vietnam!

10/10 Recommended! Worth the time and money!
Instructor was really great and can communicate really well. Has a good sense of humor and makes the session more interesting and fun. Learnt a lot about coffee. It’s also great that she encourages everyone to engage and talk to each other. I enjoyed the overall session and would recommend it to my friends who’ll visit Hanoi.

Why this scores 92
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hanoi Tea Workshop: 3 Signature Teas, 6 Recipes & 10 Tastings: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hanoi.
How much does Hanoi Tea Workshop: 3 Signature Teas, 6 Recipes & 10 Tastings cost?
+
Prices start at $10 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 Tea Workshop: 3 Signature Teas, 6 Recipes & 10 Tastings take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 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 Tea Workshop: 3 Signature Teas, 6 Recipes & 10 Tastings worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 92 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 507 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Hanoi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hanoi Tea Workshop: 3 Signature Teas, 6 Recipes & 10 Tastings?
+
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 Tea Workshop: 3 Signature Teas, 6 Recipes & 10 Tastings suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hanoi Tea Workshop: 3 Signature Teas, 6 Recipes & 10 Tastings?
+
Around 177 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 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hanoi Tea Workshop: 3 Signature Teas, 6 Recipes & 10 Tastings 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.
