5.00Ryan and Nina were excellent guides. Zipping in and out of traffic through district 3, 5 and 10 to show us how the locals eat at local businesses away from the tourist areas. Great value, yummy food and excellent experience. Thank you so much for your knowledge and guide.

5.00Great introduction to the unique dishes of Saigon. It was low season so I had a private tour and was able to go at my own pace. The host was also very accommodating when I requested a special dish I wanted to try. My guide was Anna and it was a lot of fun talking to her and she gave me more recommendations for food and shopping after the tour.
Excellent tour!

Amazing Street Food Experience

5.00Ryan and Alice picked us up from our hotel promptly. An exciting scooter ride around Ho Chi Min City eating a varied selection of delicious street food. Ryan and Alice were full of very interesting historical facts about Ho Chi Min City, the food, the culture and everything in between. They were delightful company and eager to share their knowledge about food with us. There was plenty of food and drinks, we were so full. Ryan also messaged us with many recommendations of other places to eat and drink in the city. This was definitely an unexpected bonus. 10/10. I would definitely recommend this tour. Thank you for an amazing afternoon!!
Mango the Magnificent

5.00This was such a great tour and the booking team and my amazing guide - the Magnificent Mango, went above and beyond. When they found out that I had been in Vietnam for a while and tried many foods, they made sure to find me some hidden gems that I hadn’t tried or some with a twist that you wouldn’t expect. When a vendor was unexpectedly closed, Mango could immediately identify somewhere else to take me. I was entirely satisfied (full to the bream lol) at the end of the tour. And felt safe with Mango in the hectic traffic. I would 100% recommend this tour and also Mango as the guide.
Magnificent Mango gave me the best tour!

5.00Such a fantastic food tour. My guide Mango was magnificent. He arranged for me to try some different things that I hadn’t tried (which was a challenge - seeing as I’d been all over Vietnam for the past month). He stepped up and took me to places that served the most delicious foods and for items I had tried before the ones he brought me to were better or with a bit of a different twist. Who would have thought of steamed Banh Mi? When a planned vendor was closed early - he immediately had another option for us to go to. Mango also took the time to tell me about different aspects of the neighbourhoods and areas. He kept me safe in the hectic Saigon traffic and we had an absolute ball!!! Highly recommend the tour and Mango as the guide.
Good experience with Sophia and Alice 😎

5.00It was fun to go on this tour, try new things, and see other parts of the city with Sophia and Alice as our tour guides on motorcycles. They were young, but given their profession, they have a wealth of experience. Highly recommended.
Would 100% recommend, super nice food!
