One of the highlights was taking a detour through the 24 hour flower market and discovering how silk was made from the stem of a lotus flower. Our guide was so knowledgeable and made sure that all our needs were catered for. My family has said so far the best tour they've had in Vietnam. If you get to go in this tour ask for Thin”

“We highly recommend this tour. It was pouring rain when the tour was scheduled to begin, but Grace offered to delay as long as needed to begin after rain if we desired. Very accommodating. We decided to take a chance and use the provided rain ponchos. But the time we got the ponchos on, the rain slowed considerably. By the time we arrived at the first stop, the rain ended. I believe there were about 6 stops with 10 dishes total. They were all delicious and it was difficult to rate which was best. We had been in Vietnam for about a week with another street food tour in Hanoi…”
