We've done a number of street food tours around the world, and the one we did in Da Nang tonight may be the best one we've ever experienced. You can't beat eating local specialities while walking around and learning about the city and its history from our passionate local guide Anh. I can't recommend coming to Da Nang enough just for this tour.
P.S. I had the best banh mi I've ever had in my life, and it wasn't even close to the best food we ate walking around tonight.
This is how food tours should be run. Anh clearly cares about food and walks you through each dish in detail. He adds context when/why you eat, who usually eats it and most importantly he has a genuine passion for food. Quiz him on any ingredient, street stall or dish and he will most likely know. I love cooking / trying new things and was blown away by his knowledge of food.
Not only that but Anh gave us an overview of many things in Da Nang like the history of the city / where to go for certain dishes / how the foods came about to Da Nang and basically any other topic under the sun.
Hands down try and book with Anh - he made the entire experience.
This should be the ONLY food tour to consider when in Da Nang. We have lived in Vietnam for over six months and may be a bit jaded; we certainly know Vietnamese food by now.
We heard lots of positive things about this tour and decided to give it a try even though it is not cheap. Our guide took us to places we would have otherwise never discovered. He did not rush us and we sampled so much food that we otherwise would never have considered.
This is a great evening out and you learn a lot in the process. Reserve your space in advance!
