Hue guards its own kitchen, from fiery bun bo Hue to the delicate banh beo the royal court once ate. A good food tour walks you to the stalls locals trust and orders the dishes you’d never find alone. Here are the best food tours in Hue: how many tastings, on foot or by scooter, day or evening, and what each costs.
