Explore The Backstreets of Hanoi This is more than just a food tour, it’s a cultural immersion into the flavors, sights, and soul of Hanoi. Together with the Hanoi food adventure, It is culture adventure! Hop on a Jeep, Motorbike or Vespa and ride through the hidden maze of backstreets, narrow alleys, and bustling local markets that pulse with the real rhythm of Hanoi. Witness the REAL Hanoi behind the scenes, featuring the good, the bad, and the weird sides of the city, all at close range. Immerse yourself in the Living Museum of Hanoi, where local people live and work. Meet locals in their daily lives, from street vendors to artisans, from families to school students, or discover local markets, temples, playgrounds, and random cafés. This is more than sightseeing: it’s about building genuine connections and experiencing the city with all your senses: touching, watching, hearing, tasting, smelling and feeling the city as it truly is.

Traveler reviews
Best way to see and taste Hanoi
Amazing evening with Oggy and the crew. Booking process was seamless. Instructions and explanation was very easy. On the day of the tour Oggy contacted us through WhatsApp and sent very good instructions on where to meet since we were staying outside of the old quarter. The drivers were very experienced, professional and safe. The traffic was so busy but they were expert navigators. The food and explanation of the food experience far exceeded our expectations. We saw so much, ate so much and had an experience of a lifetime. Highly highly recommend this tour company.

Great food and Oggy and his group were amazing guides
Really enjoyable food tour in downtown Hanoi
This is the second time I'm doing this food tour. This time we visited some different stops and places than the first time. Doanh our guide was very knowledgeable about the Vietnamese and Hanoiain cuisine and culture so we learned really a lot of interesting facts and things about Vietnam. We had really delicious ban xeo, banh khuc and sine other really delicious local dishes. It was really very nice Friday evening in downtown Hanoi and we really recommend it. We might do it again.
Great food tour on Vespas
John our guide was great. Friendly and very knowledgable. Gave us lots of interesting information. We went to various places to eat and tried many different Vietnamese foods and drinks. Good to tour on the back of Vespa bikes too. Would recommend the tour and our guide John
