Vietnam, Unscripted.

“Our tour guide Paul was an amazing guide to the foods in Hanoi, bringing us to local establishments that we would not have found ourselves, while also sharing insights into both the historical and current city affairs”

“The friendliness of the staff. The staff are also very close to each other. It was a really fun time. They were happy to accommodate my somewhat unreasonable request to be able to make the dishes at home, and everything we ate was delicious. I’m really glad I chose this cooking class!! Shopping at the market and harvesting in the fields. I’ll definitely come back!”

“Lana was our tour guide during the private drive around Ninh Binh. We were two families with 5 kids from ages 3-11. It was super convenient to travel with a private driver as we could leave items in the van and not have to lug it around. We could also take our time and travel at our own pace. She gave us choices for tours around Ninh Binh, helped us with the Trang A booking, and accommodated evening travel into Hoa Lu old town.”

“Diamond, our guide, was amazing. Before our tour she reached out to organize our pick up from the hotel. At the designated time she arrived promptly, and then managed our transportation through Grab. While on the tour she customized our stops according to our likes/dislikes. During the experience we tried authentic Vietnamese dishes that I’d never heard of or saw showcased on other tours. She even managed to organize the barista at that coffee shop to privately demonstrate the making of our egg coffees. She went way above and beyond, and on top of that she was so fun to talk to.”

“Great, well-organized day trip to Ninh Binh! We had a very nice day exploring beautiful Ninh Binh. The operator contacted us beforehand with a clear overview: no delays, hidden costs, or surprises. Pickup was perfectly on time, and the car was clean and comfortable. Our guide, Hieu, was friendly and knowledgeable, sharing history and fun facts. It was great that he joined us on all activities. Our thoughts on the itinerary (we chose ourself): Trang An boat ride: Absolutely amazing, the highlight of the day. Bai Dinh pagoda: A massive site, made easy with the electric shuttle. Waterfall restaurant: A scenic spot for lunch in Tam Coc. Thai Vi temple: A small, beautiful, and peaceful stop. Duck feeding: Different from Insta-reels but fun. The ducks roam free, meaning cyclists or traffic might pass between you. Overall, a well-spent day with a smooth schedule and great guidance. Recommended for a hassle-free trip!”

“Diamond was my tour guide. I found her to be very friendly, it really did feel more like hanging out with a new friend. She really personalized the tour for me and went above and beyond even taking my glasses shopping! 😆 food was such a great experience.”

“Absolutely brilliant tour! Diamond is a fab guide, very funny and witty, lots of knowledge about the food and culture to share with us all. She introduced us to foods we wouldn’t have tried usually and even pointed out some extra spots she recommends we try ourselves in our own time. All the food was great, highly appreciated the care and attention given to my dietary requirements (vegetarian) Ending the tour on train street was fantastic too, would highly recommend this tour if you’re in Hanoi!”

“What a fabulous tour! We loved the choice of food and drinks and also talking with Diamond. She had a lot of information for us and her English is impeccable, making the conversation really lively and fun. We absolutely recommend the tour. Even my daughter (12), who is a picky eater tried everything and enjoyed the food. The choices were more original than the usual Pho or Banh mi. The show at the temple of literature was also a nice ending of the evening. There are some workshops to do (calligraphy and ancient printing) which the kids enjoyed. The temple gardens and the architecture of the building is beautiful.”

“Very fun and enjoyable trip. Everything well organized. The guide Mai and the driver Hung are very friendly and helpful. We talked a lot in the car about the history, food and language of Vietnam. We took the boat at Trang An, hiked the 500 steps of Mua Cave for the view over Tam Coc, fed the ducks and finished at Bich Dong. Mai was very helpful taking photos and videos for me. Don’t hesitate — this is worth the money!”

“Our guides were very freindly and passionate about local agriculture and the community based farming model on which it runs. They both spoke fairly good English, and helped translate with a local farmer who helped us cook and showed us how to harvest the local vegetables they grow there. overall a great day out and would recommend to anyone visiting hanoi that would like to gain a deeper insight to local life.”

“We enjoyed every minute of the ATV trip! Our Guide Diamond did an amazing job entertaining us and telling us useful information about Hanoi. The following food tour was nice to get to try different and discover new dishes. Diamond did an extraordinary job and we felt comfortable with her from the start to the end! We wish Diamond the very best and can recommend her to everyone!”

“Sehr tolle Aktivität! Die Farm wird von einer super netten Familie betrieben und die einzelnen Aktivitäten waren richtig toll! Mir wurde super viel erklärt und gezeigt. Tatsächlich fand ich am besten den Reis zu ernten und die Körner von den Stämmen zu trennen. Der Snack war richtig lecker. Wie gesagt alle waren super super lieb! Wenn ihr euer eigenes Fahrrad bringt, seid euch sicher das es richtig funktioniert 🤍”

“This was the most amazing excursion we booked. Lana is a very bright and motivated woman who takes care of all the aspects of the tour by herself. The activity is very new as we were the third visitors, but everything went super smooth. We harvested our own food and prepared an amazing meal. We also learned how to weave a hammock, very interesting. This trip is perfect for people who want something else than all the touristic highlights of Hanoi and for those who want to experience the local life of Hanoi farmers. 100% would recommend!!”

“This tour was truly life changing. The beauty of the farm and the work the farmers do every single day is humbling. The care for seasonal, local product is inspiring and we will carry this experience with us forever. The tour guides and the local farmers were all very educating and passionate about what they were doing. From getting our hands dirty planting and harvesting vegetables, to working the fields and sweating underneath the beating Việt Nam sun. We were eating fruits straight off the vine and peeling and cooking fresh local corn. We couldn’t recommend this experience enough.”
