What I found really useful from a previous Hanoi food tour, was that the guide communicated after the tour by WhatsApp, and sent us the street addresses of places we had visited, along with some other recommendations and some group photos. This made it easy for us to find the places we wanted to return to, and was a valuable add on.”
