We had a very tasty and informative late afternoon walk with Bon/Flora, our fun and friendly guide, who took us to taste some great local bites in the alleys of Hoi An. I recommend to arrive with an empty stomach since all the food you taste is delicious. Definitely recommended!

The weather was atrocious but the tour went ahead anyways and we and our guide made the most of it. He even ended us taking us out for a few drinks after in the locals spot
