Chi was a great guide extremely knowledgeable about Hoi An and the places we visited all with a smile 😁

It was great to get a different take on local food as most of our tour restaurants served the same type of meals. Every host was so passionate about what they did it was lovely to experience that genuine love for what they were doing.

Informative and delicious introduction to Hoi An’s culinary culture

Chi was a wonderful host for our food tour of Hoi An. Articulate and knowledgeable she took us to four eating spots each of which had its own unique local food and a host with a very interesting background story. Highly recommended.

My mom and I had an absolutely fantastic time on this tour, facilitated by the charismatic and knowledgeable Chi. We learned so much about the 'hidden' food scenes of Hoi An, meeting interesting locals who are stepping outside the bounds of the mass tourism market to create unique, sustainable and innovative new culinary traditions. The stories behind the food were fascinating and inspiring, and we came away with full bellies, engaged minds and open hearts. Highly recommended for those who want ...read more
