I really loved this tour.... - I really loved this tour. First of all, our tour guide Christian was very welcoming and polite. He even told us some of Ho Chi Minh’s history. Not only was the food delicious but it was also abundant. I was so full by the end of the tour. My friends and I really enjoyed our time eating Vietnamese street food.

13 Tasting Tour - The 13 tasting tour was fantastic. The food and drinks were delicious throughout. Our guide, Kim, was friendly and informative and provided unique insights from a local perspective. Key highlights were the noodle soup and sweet potato balloons, but honestly, it was all tasty. Kim provided a great night out for our family and an easy way to navigate the Saigon street food scene. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Great experience! - We had such a good time on this tour!! Jayson was a 10/10 guide and was so engaged throughout the tour, teaching us so much about the food, city, and culture. Walking around the city and getting a bit of history really helped us digest between stops. All the food and drinks were beyond amazing and we were so full by the end of it! Couldn’t recommend this experience enough, especially if you get Jayson as your guide!

Delicious Walking Food Tour! - We had an amazing time on this walking food tour! I went with my friends and our tour guide Jayson was so informative and helpful in introducing us not only to the food but the culture and community in Saigon. We tried so many delicious items and drinks and were sooo full at the end! We also loved the fun souvenirs that they gave us at the end of the tour. I could not recommend this tour enough (and you should ask for Jayson because he’s awesome)!

Amazing Food Tour! - This was the first thing we did when we got to Ho Chi Minh City and it was so great!! We got to try so many different foods and drinks and got some history on the areas we walked through too. Our guide Jayson was amazing and made the whole tour a lot of fun!! I would highly recommend you do this while you’re here, it is so worth the money!

Fantastic guides showed us a great time! - We had such a fun evening with Kelvin and Dan as our guides. They spoke excellent English, had great local knowledge and such great sense of humour. If you do this tour be prepared to be full! We didn’t eat lunch in preparation and we were struggling halfway through. Culturally we didn’t want to be rude by not eating what was put in front of us, but Kelvin and Dan assured us it was ok. My advice if you want to try everything would be to enjoy a few small bites of all you are offered so you can make it to the end.
