    If you have done a food tour already or are not interested in the usual format, this might just be the tour for you - you will learn about culture and modern Vietnamese foodies in Hoi An. While eating is always part of the itinerary this tour is so much more and really offers a glimpse in the Hoi An food scene that travelers wouldn't otherwise get - far beyond the usual dishes! The best part (besides the yummy food obiviously) is that you get a real glimpse into life in Vietnam, you are literally invited into people's home! A great trip for all foodies who want to dive deeper into Vietnamese food culture and visit places you would never find on your own.

    My wife and I have had the pleasure of doing the Modern Culinary Experience on two occasions, now. It is a MUST do while in Hoi an. It is not only a culinary experience, but a real Vietnamese culture experience. You will visit 4 amazing restaurants sampling an abundance of food from across Vietnam. The owners of the restaurants have a real and genuine passion, not only for the food they serve but also for Vietnamese culture. We were amazed that a few of the owners, not only remembered us but could remember our names and our own backstories. Tinh (Tim) your guide for the tour, is a wonderful host who speaks excellent English, he has some great and heart felt stories that he is happy to share with you. He has a great knowledge of Vietnam and its history. Because his English is so good he is great source of information, for any of those questions you have as a tourist. My wife and I will be back in Vietnam in December of 2024 and will be doing this tour for a third time. It is a must do while you are in Hoi an. We can't wait to meet these wonderful people once more.

    What a fantastic way to spend our New Year’s Day. The tour took us through hidden spots and experiences / meals that are specially curated just for us, to give a fresh look at the thriving culinary scene in Hoi An. Expect a mix between traditional and fusion, an adventure on an e - tuk tuk shuttle, lots of laughs, wonderful stories from the people , the chefs, the creatives of Hoi An and a tour that is unlike any other tours on the market!

    Fantastic. What an amazing tour. I wasn't keen on a food tour, but from the first introduction with Tim, I thought we were in for an experience, and that is what he delivered. There were five of us in the group, and he engaged with us all as he took us through four different venues, including some private residences, in both the city and the country. His knowledge of Vietnamese culture and history was amazing and his fabulous communication skills made it sound like a chat rather than a lesson. The stories behind the food were also amazing. Higly recommended. I would have given 6 stars if it was an option.

    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.

    Booking this tour was such a good decision. Our guide Tinh was so knowledgeable, warm and friendly. He took us around Hoi An to amazing spots I'd never found by myself. The food was amazing, but the highlight was hearing the stories behind it, the love and care that goes into these businesses and how the city has changed while honouring its traditions. I'd recommend this and all other Secret Experiences tours to anyone visiting Vietnam. As a solo traveller, it made my experience of the city much easier and enjoyable.

    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 to leave the tourist hordes behind and experience something unique and worthwhile!
