Hanoi Food & Culture Tour (7 Days)

A flavour-filled, hands-on journey through Vietnam’s cultural heart — thoughtfully designed for mums and families who want to feel supported while experiencing the very best of Hanoi and Halong Bay.

This is Pepper’s most immersive food and culture experience. From street-food evenings in the Old Quarter to a hands-on Vietnamese cooking class, from crafting traditional Tò He figurines to drifting through the limestone magic of Halong Bay, every moment is curated for connection, ease, and unforgettable memories.

Hosted by two Pepper guides alongside our trusted local Vietnamese team, this is travel that feels warm, safe, and beautifully organised — exactly how family travel should be.
