Emma made our food tour amazing We had such a great experience on our private local food tour with Emma! She was incredibly knowledgeable, super friendly and professional, and made us feel comfortable from start to finish. Emma took us to some amazing local spots and introduced us to authentic Vietnamese cuisine that we probably wouldn’t have discovered on our own. We loved getting to experience the real local food scene and would definitely recommend Emma to anyone wanting a genuine taste of Vietnam

The Best Way to Experience Ho Chi Minh City & Local Food If you’re coming to Ho Chi Minh City and want to see the city while experiencing the local food, you must try a motorcycle food tour! My guide, John, was an excellent driver and guide. He gave me lots of interesting and informative insights about the local food, culture, and the city. He made the whole experience so much fun and truly memorable. Highly recommended!

Excellent food tour! Had a fantastic food tour with Emma, Levi and Milo. Very friendly and helpful and informative guides! Felt very safe on the bikes. And the food was all absolutely amazing. Plus there is a lot of it - don't eat on the day of this trip before it starts. Would thoroughly recommend this tour!

Charming Walking Tour Review We had an awesome time with Emma. She was friendly, polite and was a tour pro! Each food stop was delicious and she provided background information for each one. Wear walking shoes! It was raining during our tour and ponchos were provided along with wet wipes. Would highly recommend.

Amazing HIGHLY recommend! My friend & I, had tour guide Emma. She was amazing!! Besides the food tour itself, which was soooo good, Emma went above and beyond. Such as, cleaning our cutlery/chopsticks for us before we ate, to providing hand sanitizer, to safely helping me cross the roads (which I definitely needed help with 😂). Her English is amazing & her knowledge of the area, with a hint a humour was second to none. Love, love, love! 🧡

Great tour with Kelly! My fiance and I did a private tour with Kelly. She was incredible guide and it felt like we knew her for years. She was very personable and thoughtful. Kelly's personality is so energizing it was so fun to be around her! During the tour she taught us a lot about Vietnamese culture and traditions. The food choices and stops were such a huge addition to our trip. They allowed us to eat food at places that we wouldn't have without the tour. Thank you Kelly! From Hannah and Joshua

Kelly made my day! Joining the food tour with Kelly was the absolute highlight of my trip to Ho Chi Minh City! From start to finish, her warmth, caring nature, and incredible knowledge made the whole experience unforgettable. She didn't just show me amazing local dishes; she brought the vibrant food culture of the city to life with her thoughtful explanations. Kelly truly goes the extra mile for me, her attention to detail and genuine hospitality made me fall completely in love with Saigon. If you're coming to HCM City, booking a tour with Kelly is an absolute must!

Super niche food tour What a great tour, It was pouring down but we were provided with ponchos. The rain and water actually created a great atmosphere down the narrow laneways and back streets. We are 10 different meals and snacks at a variety of stalls at different locations. Don't eat for the day as there is tons of food. Our guide Kelly was great, such a character and grew up in the area. Very knowledgeable and made sure we knew what we were eating and enjoyed it. Thoroughly recommend.

We really loved our tour! We were 3 and we had one scooter driver and guide each which was fantastic. Ricky, Jhon and Bryan were amazing. It was great to discover authentic food from Vietnam and learn everything about Vietnamese life and life at HCMC. Our guides were fantastic and had suck a fun and great time and riding around HCMC was one of the highlights of our trip in Vietnam. 🇻🇳 Thank you so so much for an amazing experience ✨ We strongly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the city :)

C’est la deuxième fois que nous faisons ce tour en famille et avec nos enfants, et c’était une fois de plus génial. Peter et ses amis nous ont fait découvrir des lieux de Saigon que nous n’aurions pas pu connaître par nous-même. Ils nous ont fait goûter à des plats originaux locaux. Ils nous ont appris beaucoup et sont vraiment sympa. Et le tour en moto dans les rues de la ville est tout simplement génial. Vraiment une belle équipe et un excellent food tour ! Merci pour ce moment.

OMG Jon (Dung), Linh and Loc were truly amazing. Super hospitable, warm and welcoming. I love how they know to carefully explain all of the simple things , which could be new to foreigners, when it comes to customs and the way of life in Vietnam. I also love the explanation of the food culture and why the names for the dishes as well. This was a very well thought out and truly amazing food tour. Not only did I leave with my stomach completely full but also I felt like I was able to connect with the tour host as if we had known each other already. Jon (Dung) is super funny and all of the host were always laughing with us, making jokes and smiling which is super important. No one was afraid to talk to each other about who we are and where we come from. So glad to have had this experience.

One of the best food tours I’ve been on. Not only was the food options a great way to showcase Vietnamese cuisine, but riding the motorbikes through the busy streets of HCMC also allows you to really experience the city. Our tour guides truly made our trip unforgettable! You can tell right away that they genuinely love what they do. Their enthusiasm, deep knowledge of the area, and infectious energy made this tour even more enjoyable! They went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable, engaged, and having a great time. From start to finish we had so much fun and laughed a lot. I would definitely do this tour again. HIGHLY recommended.
