Traveler reviews
Delicious Food.
I’ve come to Saigon to experience the food and the people. This tour certainly didn’t disappoint. The people were so hospitable and the food was of the highest quality. My taste buds were still ticking, long after the tour had finished. Thank you Thang, for presenting such a memorable tour. I was captivated from start to finish by your food knowledge and your unique traffic skills.
Authentic Street Food Experience with a Knowledgeable Local Guide
We had a delightful experience on this food tour with Daniel. The itinerary offered an impressive variety of street food—we sampled a total of 12 dishes, each showcasing a different aspect of the local cuisine. My personal favorite was the Bún Cá (fish noodle soup), which stood out for its flavor and freshness. The tour was very filling and well-paced, and having a knowledgeable local like Daniel made a big difference. He not only guided us to great food spots but also shared helpful context about the dishes and the area. Overall, a highly enjoyable and worthwhile experience.
Daniel was a great tour guide.
Daniel was our guide. He was top notch. Very helpful and wonderful company to spend the night with. Explained all the different dishes and gave us a feel for the areas we visited. Help us push our boundaries on food choices 🙂🙂
Meh, nothing special…….
We did a private tour during the Tet holiday week so some of the stops were closed when we arrived so on the fly changes had to be made. We wondered, if this was known, perhaps the operator shouldn’t have offered the tour at all? Flower street was closed down so we basically just walked through some dark side roads with all the shops closed down. We found the tour wasn’t anything special. 4 food stops with plenty of walking the back areas of the city. Interesting to see but nothing really too exciting as most street vendors were closed. A little pricey for the tour considering the timing. Perhaps it’d be better outside of the Tet but we wouldn’t have been disappointed if we didn’t do this.
