Unique cocktail, culinary and cultural experiences

Cocktail, culinary and photography experiences across Vietnam's most compelling cities.

Our Signature experiences

Join our authentic experiences in Ho Chi Minh City, Hoi An, Da Nang, and Hanoi, Vietnam

Cocktail & Culinary
Experiences

Vietnam's cocktail and food cultures run deeper than most visitors ever discover. We take you into the spaces, the stories, and the people behind them.

Art & Photography
Experiences

The best photographs of these cities aren't taken from the obvious spots. Our hosts know the light, the neighbourhoods, and the moments worth capturing.

Private
Experiences

The same quality, shaped entirely around your group. Birthdays, corporate events, honeymoons, or simply a reason to celebrate, we build the experience around you.

Our Story

Launched in late 2018, Secret Experiences quickly became the most unique thing to do in Vietnam.

We started our journey by launching a Secret Cocktail Experience in Hoi An that was featured in The New York Times, Harper’s Bazaar, and many popular travel blogs.

A year later, we created our online experiences and private virtual workshops.

In 2022, we restarted our in-person experiences in Hoi An and launched a new exciting experience in Ho Chi Minh City. In 2024, we expanded to Hanoi.

We organized honeymoons, bachelor parties, and friend gatherings. We hosted team buildings and corporate parties for Google, Apple, Instagram, Deloitte, Airbnb, and many others.

We also hosted customized private mixology classes and craft alcohol tastings.

A fantastic night that really felt like we got to experience a few of the city’s secrets. Revisited a few of the places after the tour because they were just so fantastic. Would definitely recommend.

Rhiannon
Such a fun experience! Khieu was a fabulous host! Went to bars that I probably wouldn’t have sought out on my own. The cocktail and food bite at each was really, really good! Highly recommend, especially for solo travellers. Do this early in your trip to Hoi An, so you can go back to the bars visited.

Chloe
The venues were impressive, and the host was friendly and knowledgeable, sharing interesting stories about the city's history. We loved the cocktails made with local ingredients at each stop, and the simple bites were a nice touch. We even revisited a couple of the locations we visited on the tour. Highly recommended!

Damien
This was an incredible tour that took us to so many non-touristy locations in Hoi An! I feel like I really got to know the city and what lay just steps away from old town where others wandered. Khieu was a great guide and a great companion for the night overall. She really facilitated our group discussions and knew so much about the city - it's her hometown! The cocktails were all so great and the accompanying food was also so tasty. Would definitely do this again!

Larissa
5 stars hands down! A great experience I would highly recommend to travellers, expats or perhaps even locals in HCM city. Met some great people and had amazing cocktails at unforgettable venues. Thank you to Julie and Natalya for hosting and storytelling, great evening.

Lucas
Fantastic fun tour with Julie. Loved going to bars that we just wouldn’t have found on our own. All of them quiet and secluded which gave a really nice atmosphere to the tour. Good mix of talking about Vietnam culture and the drinks themselves. Would highly recommend to couples and / singles looking for a fun start to a night out.
