Knowledgeable and friendly

My family and I really enjoyed our time with Linh. She personalized the activities for us and was great at communicating. She also showed us some delicious food spots and provided a lot of local knowledge about Nha Trang.

Great experience

Mai came and picked me up at the hotel, she took me on a short tour on her scooter and showed me the nice city of Nha Trang. Then we went for the food adventure. Mai took me to places I would not have found by myself, it was a non-touristic area. The food was excellent and it was plenty of it, she picked the best and most interesting food from the menu. We visited several places and all was a new experience, the three hours went by really fast. Mai is very nice and easy to talk to, speaks very good English. I would really recommend to book a tour with Mai.

Most memorable experience of our vacation

We were lucky enough to come upon this tasting tour with Linh. As Vietnamese-Canadians returning to Vietnam for our first visit in fifty years, we wanted to have an authentic experience. Much of the food we had already tried felt catered for tourists. Until we met Linh. She took us to little out-of-the-way places that served incredible dishes, with each specializing in a very specific dish. Every dish was a winner and we are picky foodies. The food was great but our interactions with Linh are what set the tour apart. She was extremely thoughtful, prepared and flexible. She customized the tour according to our tastes as the tour went along. She intertwined historical information with personal stories of the people who we met with throughout our travels. We learned more in our short time with her over the three days we trekked it alone. She really went above and beyond for us. We could not be more grateful for Linh and the time we had with her.

Amazing cultural food experience!!

Linh was the most amazing guide. Such a sweet soul. Her passion for the food and city of nha trang is amazing. She took us to 9 of her favourite spots around the beautiful city of Nha Trang (didn’t have enough stomach space to fit in the last restaurant 😅). The food was amazing, and so different to anything we have experienced before. We met linh in the foyer of our hotel where we were welcomed with fresh cane sugar juice. It was a warm night and linh took it upon herself to organise Taxis so we didn’t have to walk in the scorching Nha Trang heat. Linh made Nha Trang feel like a second home to us and I can’t wait to come back to do it all again. Linh’s English was perfect and had such rich insight into what we were eating and the history behind some of the restaurants we were eating at (even providing me with recipes of some of the meals/sauce’s I enjoyed) If you are looking for a food tour to book while in Nha Trang, I couldn’t recommend a better person, as she is extremely friendly and accomodating. See you next time Linh !!!! Love, Jonathon & Carinna.
