Hanoi Morning
Discover local daily life and street food - Best Selling
Tour code: HM1D
Price range: 45 USD
Get up early and begin this morning walking exploration of traditional local daily life. There is the chance to sample what probably could be termed Vietnam’s ‘national dish’ – the world renowned “pho”! The most popular choices are “pho bo” (beef noodle soup) or “Pho ga” (chicken noodle soup). Then visit to traditional market (wet markets) where a huge array of produce is sold. In the morning the market is abuzz with shoppers buying what they need for the day’s meals. Everything from fresh tropical fruits, an abundance of fragrant herbs, fresh meats, fresh flowers and even live fish and frogs are sold! Vietnamese cuisine is highly regarded as one of the world's best, but few realize the variations that are found in the cuisine. Then walk through the backstreets where small vendors set up their stalls along the road. Take a rest whilst enjoying a cup of Vietnamese coffee or tea. Continue exploring the lively small streets stopping to sample some of Hanoi’s favorite street food including "Bun Cha" - A Hanoi noodle soup which is served with fried "Nem’ (spring-rolls filled with pork or crab) or “Banh Cuon” - Thin steamed rice flour pancakes filled with minced pork and cloud ear mushrooms are served piping hot, still soft and delicate, before returning to your hotel by taxi.
