However the company was great about reaching out and I did an even better one with the same company. I went on the Hanoi Train Food Tour and it was AMAZING!!!! My guide Pietro was so knowledgable and knew some of the best spots in town. He gave amazing city tidbits while also giving us info on Hanoi food culture and history. He was the best and truly made the tour. By the end of the trip he made a group of strangers friends all through his foodie humor and fun…”
