Best evening in Saigon - My daughter was a little scared at the idea of riding a motorbike around the city, but we had a lot of fun! The girls are reliable and affable. It feels safe. The tour was exceptional both for the food and the scenic route of the city. 10 and praise to these girls!! Thanks Cici.

The best to I ever had - Diving into the "Street Food by Night" tour with Little Saigonese Tours was like being part of an exclusive journey through Ho Chi Minh City's best-kept culinary secrets. Here’s the quick scoop, just like I'd chat about it over coffee with friends: Amazing Guides: It felt more like hanging out with a food-savvy buddy than a formal tour. They had all the cool stories and took us to the spots you'd never find on your own. Incredible Food: Every dish was a hit. From crispy Banh Xeo to the best Banh Mi I’ve ever tasted, it was a non-stop flavor party. Totally Taken Care Of: The team really looked out for us, choosing spots that were not just delicious but super clean. Made the whole street food experience worry-free. Pro Tip: Go hungry, wear comfy clothes, and if you're vegetarian, give them a heads-up—they're super accommodating! In short, Little Saigonese Tours knocked it out of the park. It was an unforgettable night filled with great food, stories, and vibes. Totally recommend it if you're looking to experience the real taste of Ho Chi Minh City!

Delicious food, lovely tour guide! - We loved our food tour with Mya. Her English is great and she shared lots of interesting information about the food and its origins. The food was all delicious with a good variety of dishes, both common and a few we’d not come across before. We especially loved the Banh Mi. By the end of the evening we were both really full from the 6 dishes, so we highly recommend fasting before starting the tour. We particularly liked the pace and flow of the tour. We spent some time walking the streets and exploring the neighbourhoods and learning about local life. This gave us time to digest the food before moving onto the next. At the end of the night they drove us around the city to experience it all lit up from across the river. It was the perfect way to end the evening. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend! - We had an awesome time on this tour! The food was absolutely incredible and we were so full by the end. We were taken to a few hidden gems that we definitely wouldn't have discovered on our own. Our hosts were so friendly, attentive and informative. They are really experienced riders and we always felt safe navigating the overwhelming streets of Saigon. Highly recommend!
