The Rose Kitchen Hanoi Food, Market, Cooking & Culture Tour lasts four and a half hours and begins with a free pickup within Hanoi’s Old Quarter. The tour starts with a visit to a local market where participants select fresh ingredients under the guidance of a professional English-speaking storyteller trained by the former Head Chef and Training Director of Sofitel Metropole. After the market visit, the group moves to two air-conditioned garden villas covering 250 square meters, featuring lush courtyards and greenery. Here, guests use 5-star cooking tools and equipment to prepare authentic Vietnamese dishes. A friendly tour escort and on-site host assist throughout the cooking class to ensure comfort. Upon finishing the cooking, participants enjoy a full Vietnamese lunch or dinner depending on the session, accompanied by fresh seasonal fruit and a tasting of homemade fruit wine. Unlimited mineral water and a welcome herbal tea are provided during the experience. The tour includes free luggage storage for up to three days and offers digital local guides. A digital certificate is available on request after completing the course. Booking this tour supports a community program that provides stable employment for elder women from rural areas.

Itinerary
Welcome to Vietnam: where every dish carries memory, and every flavor holds a piece of our soul. After pickup, you’ll wander through a lively local market to choose fresh ingredients and feel the daily rhythm of Hanoi. Here, scents, colors, and conversations weave together the story of how Vietnamese families cook, gather, and care for one another. Back at our charming villa with a 500m² garden, you’ll learn to prepare iconic Vietnamese dishes while uncovering the traditions and family stories behind each recipe. As you chop, wrap, and season, you’re not just cooking, you’re stepping into the heart of Vietnam’s culinary spirit. Then sit down in the peaceful garden to enjoy the dishes you’ve created, surrounded by warmth and laughter. As part of giving back to the community, we welcome elder women from small rural towns into stable, respectful roles in our kitchen. Their gentle presence, life experience, and quiet strength add a depth of love and authenticity that no cookbook can teach. Private classes are available, and our spacious villa can host up to 85 guests, ideal for friends, families, or heartfelt group gatherings.
