What To Expect

Your detailed Itinerary

Your expedition begins with a personal greeting at your hotel lobby by our native food enthusiast. We immediately dive into the quiet backstreets of the Ancient Town to discover the roots of Hoi An’s food culture.

We start with the world-famous Banh Mi and delicate White Rose dumplings at spots hidden away from the main tourist thoroughfares.

As the evening progresses, we sit down for the “Big Three” of Hoi An: the legendary Cao Lau, crispy Banh Khot (savory pancakes), and Banh Cuon (steamed rice rolls with grilled pork). As the thousands of lanterns begin to light up the town, we transition to the riverside to enjoy a traditional Vietnamese Coffee or local herbal tea. We conclude our journey with a sweet finale of Tofu Pudding and other signature local desserts, leaving you perfectly positioned in the heart of the Ancient Town to explore the night market or enjoy a romantic stroll by the water.
