Experience Details

If you prefer the Anthony Bourdain style of travel, experiencing local drinking culture, eating good food, drinking at some hidden watering holes outside of the touristy Old Quarter, talking about everything (lifestyle, history, sports, politics, culture, literature), then this is the tour for you.


I've spent more than 18 years searching for the best Bia Hơi in Hanoi. Even though it's the drink that has represented Hanoi culture for over 50 years and you can see "Bia Hơi" sign at every conner but sadly there are only few places serve proper "Hanoi Bia Hơi" nowadays.


So join me in a journey through some of the most special, enjoyable, hidden places to taste the real Hanoi Bia Hơi and delicious local drinking food.


* I can only host this beer tour twice a week so please send me a message if you have any date inquiry


* THIS TOUR CAN BE WELL ADAPTED TO VEGETARIAN

(This place closes on Sunday and public holiday so instead we'll go to another hidden Bia hơi hangout) - Go to a Bia Hơi place which was an anti aircraft base during Vietnam war and try their famous crispy pork belly and tasty beer. - Meet my most favourite street chef in town, taste some of his very special food (fish spring rolls for example) and some homemade plum or apricot rice wine. * I can only host this beer tour twice a week so please send me a message if you have any date inquiry. * THIS CAN BE WELL ADAPTED TO VEGETARIAN.
