♡ Save


Join a local foodie to explore hidden alleys and authentic flavors of Hoi An. Skip the scripts for genuine vibes, local stories, and the city’s best bites. It’s an easy, savory stroll through the heart of Vietnam.
Hi! I’m THAO (means "herbs") – your local companion. Tired of "robotic" tours? If you want to feel the soul of Hoi An through its flavors and unique language, you’ve found the right friend!
What we'll do in 2 hours:
The "Un-Plugged" Walk: We’ll stroll through charming alleys, away from digital noise. I’ll share "hidden stories" behind the yellow walls that you won't find on Google.
Language Fun: I’ll teach you "cool" Vietnamese phrases to make locals smile. You'll learn the logic and art behind our daily words.
Street Food Break: No exhausting walks! We’ll stop at hidden gems for Banh Mi, savory snacks, or herbal drinks. (Food costs are on you, but I’ll ensure local prices!).
Real Connection: A chat between friends by the river about culture and life. No scripts, just vibes.
Why join me?
Education at heart: I’m patient and love explaining the "Why". Digital Detox: Let’s put phones away and enjoy the moment.
Note: Wear comfortable shoes & bring a hungry stomach! Food cost not included. God bless you for a wonderful experience!
