Hanoi Food Tours & Local Experiences
Welcome to A Taste of Hanoi
At A Taste of Hanoi, we believe the best way to discover Vietnam is through its people, culture, and unforgettable food. Our team is passionate about creating authentic Hanoi tours that connect travelers with the real spirit of the city. From the vibrant streets of the Hanoi Old Quarter to hidden family-run eateries and local craft breweries, our experiences are designed to show you a side of Hanoi that most visitors never see.
Our tours are built around three guiding pillars: Guests, Guides, and Community. Every experience we offer is thoughtfully crafted so guests can enjoy meaningful Vietnam travel experiences while exploring the city with knowledgeable local guides. Whether you join one of our signature Hanoi food tours, explore historic neighborhoods, or discover the growing craft beer scene, our goal is simple—create memorable experiences that bring Hanoi to life.
Our local guides are the heart of A Taste of Hanoi. Each guide brings their own passion, knowledge, and personal stories to every tour. Through their eyes, guests experience the culture, traditions, and daily life that define Hanoi. From tasting traditional dishes on a Hanoi Old Quarter food tour to exploring the vibrant world of Vietnam street food, our guides create experiences that go far beyond a typical sightseeing tour.
We are also deeply committed to supporting the communities that make Hanoi so special. By working closely with small local restaurants, family-owned street food vendors, and independent brewers, our tours help sustain the neighborhoods we explore. Every meal, drink, and stop along the way contributes directly to the local economy and preserves the traditions that define Hanoi’s rich culinary culture.
Beyond our daily tours, we also specialize in private custom travel experiences and multi-day tours throughout Vietnam. From tailored journeys that begin in Hanoi and travel south through the country to Ho Chi Minh City, our team works closely with guests to design meaningful adventures while continuing to support local communities along the way.
For travelers looking to explore more deeply in Hanoi, we also offer private custom tours and curated local experiences across the city. Whether it’s a personalized street food adventure, a cultural walk through historic neighborhoods, or a craft beer discovery tour, our experiences are designed to connect visitors with the authentic spirit of the capital.
Whether you are visiting Vietnam for the first time or returning to explore more deeply, A Taste of Hanoi invites you to experience the country through its flavors, stories, and people.

Can’t thank Brian enough for the perfect balance of eating, drinking, beautiful views, Hanoi cultural info, basic Vietnamese phrases... you name it, it was perfect! We did “one Night in Hanoi”, after such a great night we’ve just booked the “Craft Beer Tour”. So much laughing and great memories, just an amazing night!

The beers were great but what was even better was the tour guide, Nikita! She was so passionate about craft beer in Hanoi, everything she said was gold. Other than that, I enjoyed the long ride through Hanoi. A must try for beer lovers, for sure.

We had so much fun with Cong on our food tour. His choices in food were excellent and he also taught us so much about Hanoi, the culture, and showed us more than just food. I highly recommend this tour. Brian was very attentive and accommodating in organizing our dream tour!

I had a morning walking tour with my guide Cong, he was great, fantastic English, and very knowledgeable. The tour combines food, history and different sights which you would not find in a travel guide. It was a great experience, if you are a foodie do not miss it
