"Gỏi đu đủ"- papaya salad is originally offered in my tour since 2018. The plate of papaya salad included long strands of thinly cut green papaya, roasted peanuts, some type of what I think was beef jerky (the black stuff on the left side of my plate), a wonderful addition of sliced Vietnamese coriander, and finally a handful of extra crispy fritters, kind of like fried crackers, on the very top. *fresh, yummy and a must try
Nguyen Thien Thuat apartment buildings have existed for about half of the century, where we will have Hue beef soup. Most of the people who have been living there do not want to leave their familiar living place. Some of them have been neighbors since the Vietnam War.
Ho Thi Ky is the largest flower market in Ho Chi Minh City, supplies flowers to the city and some provinces in the South of Vietnam. Founded in the 1980s, this is a rare place that upholds the characteristic of the old Saigon.
One of the popular street foods which you shouldn’t miss when you visit Vietnam for the first time. Banh xeo refers to sizzling pancake which contains different ingredients including pork, shrimp, onion, bean sprouts, mung beans.
The journey includes an end. Your guides will ride back to your hotel or your requested places (within district 1, 3 & 4). Looking forward to your next trip! Love you!

This food tour by motorbike is an absolute must do when visiting HCMC! What an amazing experience both on the back of the motos zipping through streets and narrow alleyways and also the magnificent range of local foods! Our guides, Mac and An made us feel both safeand comfortable at all times. They were very friendly and knowledgeable and went out of their way to ensure we enjoyed our trip. Thanks guys!! We loved this experience!
Our family shares a night with 5 lovely young men in Saigon showing us the sights and amazing food of the area on motorbikes, we would have tasted over 10 different foods starting with a refreshing drink on the side of the road, then the food started with bike rides in between. Our guides were absolutely lovely, lead by Rodger who was happy to accommodate any food issues. We had the best afternoon/night exploring the local areas and would highly recommended this tour to anyone.
The food tour was excellent. All of the food was of great quality and tasted very good,m. Our guides were friendly, fun and gave lots of info about Ho Chi Minh and the food scene. Would highly recommend

Down to earth guides. Took us to many places outside the usual food tourgroups which felt personal. Great knowledge and happy to share their culture which is what we were looking for. Recommend to anyone wanting a more personal tour.
We had such a nice experience. If you really want to have a local food tour, take it. Our guides were Roger and Will, very kind and gentle! We hey took us to local places and explain to us everything about the food. So recommended the tour.
Excellent food great vibes and the motorbike ride was great
Absolutely our favorite thing we did in Saigon! We did all the normal tourist sights before this food tour, but we actually felt like we experienced the city the most when riding around the city on mopeds trying all these authentic restaurants and street food away from the beaten tourist path. Our guides were also absolutely fantastic. They were so funny and energetic and happy to answer all our questions. Their English is also great. Would recommend them to anyone going to Saigon!
Tuấn and Nam showed us around so many spots in Vietnam, all local and yummy food. We went home full and satisfied. Thank you so much! It was amazing
