Itinerary
Start the night with Nha Trang’s signature noodle soup. Choose from fresh fish, beef, or crab, served with plenty of herbs and crisp greens. This small, family-run spot is a true local favorite — simple, authentic, and full of coastal flavor.
Next, enjoy Bánh Xèo straight from the pan. You’ll hear it sizzling as it cooks — crispy on the outside, filled with shrimp, squid, mushrooms, and more (we can adjust the toppings to your preference). Wrap it with herbs and dip it in sauce for the perfect bite.
Try green papaya salad topped with homemade beef jerky, served with crunchy shrimp crackers and a refreshing fresh tofu drink. This is one of those places locals have been coming to for years.
You’ll also taste Vietnamese grilled sausage (nem nướng) wrapped in fresh spring rolls, or grilled beef wrapped in betel leaves — smoky, flavorful, and very typical of Central Vietnam.
Finish the evening with a local dessert: candied palm seeds in coconut milk, seasonal tropical fruits, or longan and lotus sweet soup — light, comforting, and the perfect way to end the night.

We had an amazing food tour in Nha Trang! It was one of the highlights of our trip. Our guides, Lala and Rey were friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing the local food culture. We visited five authentic local eateries and sampled a great variety of Vietnamese dishes, from seafood and savory street food to delicious desserts. Every stop felt unique, and I learned the stories and traditions behind each dish, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The pace of the tour was perfect, the portions were generous, and we never felt rushed. We traveled on scooters and it was a fantastic way to explore the city while tasting food I probably would have never found on my own. I highly recommend this food tour to anyone visiting Nha Trang. Whether you're a foodie or simply want to experience authentic Vietnamese cuisine, this tour is absolutely worth it, we already miss our guides Lala and Rey - they are a Five Star crew!
Very nice tour with great food. Very good drivers, Tee and Ling and collega’s. Safe driving and lost of information. Thank you!
I had a fantastic time on the tour! My guide, Ray, was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. I was impressed with his sensible driving and always felt safe, even in the busiest streets and traffic. The food was tasty and authentic and the tour shows you the best places to eat. Would highly recommend!
I had a fantastic time on this food tour. The food was delicious, the food places authentic and the guides were incredibly friendly. My guide was Bach and he was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable, helpful and funny- the driving was also very good so I felt super safe. Would highly recommend this tour!!
This tour was truly fabulous, our guides Lala, Rey, Dolly and Claire were very friendly, informative and spoke very clear English. Doing the tour on the back of scooters is such a buzz and an excellent way to see the city. The food was delicious at every stop, but best not to eat anything the day of the Tour because there’s a lot of food, Highly recommend 👍
We had a great evening with guide LaLa, Bach, and Cong who guided us & transported us on the back of their motorbikes around Nha Trang to introduce us to delicious & authentic local Vietnamese food. We got to experience many delicious dishes while enjoying the company of vibrant locals. Thank you for your great hospitality, flexibility and care. Annette, Danny & Ricky
We had an amazing and local experience with Lala and Bach! We ate lots of amazing food over a number of stops. They also dropped us off at our preferred location which was very thoughtful.
I had an amazing time on this tour! Anna was my guide and she was the sweetest. We stopped at 5 different places to experience local food, all being very delicious. The Bánh Xèo was my favourite! Each stop, Anna explained the food and showed me how to eat it. We also talked about so many other things and she taught me a lot about Vietnamese culture and life. She was a great driver and made me feel safe and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this tour if you want to eat like a local!
Really good food tour with local food expert Johnson.
I had a fantastic time on this food tour with Lala! As someone who isn't used to riding on a scooter, I really appreciated how safe and considerate she was. She rode carefully, adjusted her speed to make me comfortable, and made the entire experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. The food selections were excellent and clearly well thought out. In fact, I enjoyed several of the places so much that I went back to revisit them after the tour. It was a great introduction to authentic Vietnamese food beyond the usual tourist spots. Lala was also wonderful company. She was friendly, easy to talk to, and shared lots of interesting insights throughout the evening. I would highly recommend choosing Lala if you're looking for a fun, authentic, and delicious way to explore Vietnamese cuisine. Just one piece of advice: arrive with an empty stomach—you'll need the extra space!
