    Michelin food tour

    Our street food tour went quite well as guide brought us go through small alleys for the eateries that probably only locals will be able to find. He was quite attentive and chatty especially when it comes to the food background and Vietnam history. We couldn’t finish the whole things because it’s too much for our limited stomach space even though they are all quite tasty.

    Disappointed

    This tour was not for us. We visited 3 Michelin star restaurants. The cleanliness of the toilets let the restaurants. The first restaurant we sat across the road there was a cue and food was brought to us which ok. I’ve have copious amounts of Pho and this didn’t meet the what I’ve eaten before. 2nd restaurant the broth was delicious and same with the pork but the cleanliness let it down. They also didn’t use bottled water to make our drinks so we didn’t drink them. The 3rd restaurant the eel was tasteless didn’t this restaurant at all. The 4th restaurant I couldn’t find on the Michelin app the egg pancakes was just ok as I’ve had better in Hanoi. All in all I wouldn’t recommend this tour.

    Response from the operator: Dear Mrs Sue Kannis, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations. We’d like to clarify that this is a Michelin-recommended street food tour, not a visit to Michelin-starred fine dining restaurants. The local eateries we include are family-run stalls and small venues that have been recognized by the Michelin Guide for their authenticity, quality, and popularity—not for luxury or formality. We understand that local street food experiences can be quite different from traditional restaurant dining, especially in terms of setting and environment. We always strive to select vendors that offer clean, safe, and flavorful food, and we regularly visit these spots ourselves to ensure quality. Regarding the use of bottled water and overall cleanliness, we appreciate your feedback and will share it with our partners to see where improvements can be made. That said, many of our past guests have enjoyed the unique flavors and cultural immersion this tour offers, and we’re sorry it didn’t align with your preferences. Thank you again for joining us and for helping us improve. Warm regards, Rose

    Michelin Street Food Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Michelin Street Food Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $35 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 Michelin Street Food Tour 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 Michelin Street Food Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 12 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 Michelin Street 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 Michelin Street Food Tour 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 Michelin Street Food Tour?

    +

    Around 4 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 Michelin Street 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 Michelin Street Food Tour?

    +

    Included: Walking in the old quarter for 3 hours; Beer or coffee/ other drinks; Some dishes for the lunch or dinner; Pick up hotels in the old quarter/ Hoan Kiem lake area; and English speaking tour guide. Not included: Tips (not compulsory); Luxury restaurants; and Stay outside the old quarter. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Michelin Street Food Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 549 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 Michelin Street 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 Michelin Street 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 Michelin Street Food Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Michelin Street Food Tour if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.

    What do travelers say about Michelin Street Food Tour?
