Hanoi Food Tours and Cooking Classes
Twenty-nine experiences, a median of 25 EUR for an evening walk, and a rating of 5.0 across 31,059 reviews. What you are paying for is not the food. It is the price of the food.
Hanoi has the cheapest guided eating anywhere on this site and the highest ratings on it. Twenty street food walks hold a straight 5.0 across 31,059 reviews, which is the kind of number that usually means a small sample. It is not: this is the largest pool of reviews of any Asian city in the catalogue.
The Old Quarter is small, dense and legible, and finding good food in it takes no skill at all. Which raises the obvious question about why anybody books a tour here. The answer is below, and it is not the one the operators put in their titles.
