Hanoi Street Food Tour

Hanoi Street Food Tour is a walking experience through the old quarters of the city where visitors taste local dishes at street stalls and hidden eateries. The route passes small vendors preparing traditional Vietnamese foods such as pho, bun cha, banh cuon, and bun rieu cua, each representing different flavors and cooking styles from the region.

The tour was established in 2013 and focuses on preserving authentic Vietnamese street food traditions. The dishes themselves span generations, reflecting how Hanoi has maintained eating practices as a core part of daily culture for over a century.

The tour's name refers to Hanoi's streets, where food has been central to daily life for generations. Visitors observe locals eating their meals outdoors, vendors calling out their offerings, and a city where meals and customs shape community life.

The tour lasts about three hours covering roughly 2.5 kilometers (1.5 miles), with small groups of no more than twelve people to keep the experience personal. Different options are available including walking, cycling, or scooter rides, and booking should be made directly through the official website to avoid imitations.

A highlight is visiting a hidden cafe tucked inside the old quarter where you can try egg coffee, a creamy drink made with whisked eggs blended into coffee. This specialty has been prepared in the city for many years and offers a distinctive taste in a quiet retreat amid the busy streets.
