Hello dear friends. I'm Nam. I'm a Hanoi citizen. I love this stunning city and I well know the history, culture and lifestyle of Hanoi people. I have been working as a tourist guide for almost 15 years. However, I’m a new Guru, holding a Guru Hobby Account, and that’s why you don’t see many reviews on my tour program, but I guarantee to provide qualified walking programs. It has been always my pleasure to show people around Hanoi, especially the Old Quarter. Besides, one of the things that always give goosebumps to people and make them wow is Hanoi cuisine. My big hobby is to make people's trip to Hanoi an unforgettable one. So, contact me and discover charming Hanoi with me.

Tour description

Tourists can do a lot of activities in Hanoi, but one thing they shouldn't miss is the opportunity to experience and taste local street food. This is the excellent way to learn and feel the local culture and lifestyle.

I will walk you, starting from Thang Long Water Puppet Theatre, through small and shady streets in the Old Quarter such as Bao Khanh, Hang Trong, Nha Tho, Ly Quoc Su, Hang Gai, Hang Thiec, Hang Buom, Ma May, etc.

Along the way we will stop over in street food shops for you to enjoy the dishes such as (may not be all, depend on your stomach space):
1. Banh Tom: A locally traditional deep-fried dish using shrimps as main ingredient, served with fresh herbs and sweet sour dipping sauce.
2. Banh Goi: A pillow-shaped dish filled with minced pork, glass noodle, wood-ear mushroom, carrot sticks, served with fresh herbs and sweet sour dipping sauce.
3. Banh Mi: A Hanoi style bread filled with options of pork, beef, chicken, duck combined with chilly sauce, fresh herbs, cucumber.
4. Bun Ca is fish noodle soup. Crunchy deep-fried fillet fish chunks served with noodle soup cooked with tomato, onion, green mustard, dill.
5. Bun Rieu Cua: Another special version of noodle soup. The dish is an excellent combination of crab extract, fried tofu, rice vinegar, beef and herbs.
6. Egg Coffee: A signature drink originated from Hanoi with an incredible story
7. Bia Hoi: Hanoi locally brewed draught beer.

Besides explaining to you the ingredients and the way the dishes are prepared and cooked, I will introduce to you all the information of local living style.

The tour will end with some Bia Hoi.

With all my passion to be a cultural ambassador, I warmly welcome all of you to my country and Hanoi.

So, please don't hesitate to book me. Thank you!

***Note: Vegetarian food is available. Food is paid on spot on travelers' account and costs around $10 each.
