What you'll see and do
Hanoi
Our lunchtime food tour invites guests on a culinary experience around Hanoi. It's a carefully curated food adventure, led by our team of professional food guides. Before we get started, our tour reflects the local cuisine, & the limitations of street food vendors means we unfortunately cannot cater for every dietary restriction. Here's an honest appraisal for the tour, so no-one is disappointed: ✘ Unsuitable for vegetarian diets sorry, as there would be 4-5 less tastings. ✖️ Unsuitable for severe allergies, halal and celiac diets, due to the risk of traces & cross-contamination. If you are feeling adventurous for a foodie journey, read on!

Hanoi
We'll meet at the historic Old Quarter, navigating through street food vendors, decades-old eateries and family-owned recipes that have been passed down generations. We'll crunch on crispy handmade pillow cakes, translucent tapioca dumplings, and caramelized pork belly. We can't miss a Hanoian classic -Chả Cá Lã Vọng, a turmeric-spiked fish dish with dill at a century-old original joint, before a steamy hot bowl of pho at a Michelin-rated eatery. Next up, bánh cuon rice rolls are rolled expertly over the griddle, and later grilled bun cha pork patties are doused over stringy vermicelli noodles and fresh herbs, whilst young green rice flakes are bundled over banana leaves, washed down with dracontomelon juice. There's many more surprises amongst 15+ tastings over the course of 7-8 stops of our moveable feast.

Hungry Hanoi Tour Review
This tour was a great way to try a great variety of food that Hanoi has to offer. Lot of places you would likely pass by if not on the tour. Our guide Tùng was great! Very enthusiastic and educational!

Great tour
Tung did a great job! Good walking tour of the old quarter with lots of tasty street food bites.

Yummy food tour
Great food tour - we tried lots of delicious food and left very full! Visited spots we wouldn’t have found otherwise so found it very helpful. We wish there had been more time for informal conversation about living in Vietnam like we have experienced on food tours in other places.

Hungry Hanoi Food Tour with 15+ Tastings: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hanoi.
How much does Hungry Hanoi Food Tour with 15+ Tastings cost?
+
Prices start at $23 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 Hungry Hanoi Food Tour with 15+ Tastings take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Hungry Hanoi Food Tour with 15+ Tastings worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 97 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 Hungry Hanoi Food Tour with 15+ 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 Hungry Hanoi Food Tour with 15+ Tastings suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hungry Hanoi Food Tour with 15+ Tastings?
+
Around 34 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hungry Hanoi Food Tour with 15+ 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.
