Stop at: Old Quarter
Details: You can join the tour twice a day:
- 11am - 2pm
- 6 - 9pm
Meeting point (walk distance around the old quarter) will be provided before the tour.
We walk around Hanoi Old Quarter, out of the beaten track, where we may sit on small plastic chairs and use chopsticks like local people. Unlike big cities all around the world, street food in Hanoi is not just hot dog carts and pretzel stands.
You will try around 8 - 10 most authentic dishes of Hanoi cuisine cooked by skillful chefs in local restaurants. Those families keep heritage recipes passed down through generations. The thing is most of those places are in small alleys or hidden houses, even without any signs, hard to find for tourists
The rotating menu is thoroughly chosen basing on guests' preferences to present the variety of delicious options.
