Female Riders Vespa Night Street Food + Train Street food 4 Hours

About this tour

Female Vespa riders guide you through Hanoi's nocturnal food scene, whisking you between family-run stalls serving dishes most visitors miss. Over 4.5 hours, you'll taste bun cha, banh cuon, pho cuon, banh xeo and banh mi whilst weaving past the city's glowing shopfronts and bustling night markets. Stop at Train Street for local colour, sip egg coffee and beer hoi, and watch Hanoi's after-dark rhythms unfold from the seat of a vintage scooter.

What to expect

You'll mount a Vespa with a female driver who navigates Hanoi's chaotic night traffic with practiced ease. Expect to stop frequently—sometimes pulling over abruptly when your guide spots a good pho vendor or a crowded banh mi stand. Food arrives quickly, portions are modest, and you'll eat standing or perched on plastic stools. Train Street offers respite: a narrow railway corridor lined with cafés and locals unwinding after dark. The riding itself is steady rather than thrilling; the draw is the intimate, unfiltered view of how Hanoi eats when the sun goes down.

Good to know

Wear long sleeves and trousers; roads are unforgiving. Bring a light jacket for evening breezes. The pace is leisurely but not for those with back or heart complaints, or pregnant travellers. Infant seats available on request. All food, drinks and fuel included; guide and driver tips are separate.
