SaigonVibes
23 June 2026
Saigon Vibes has been ranked the #1 food tour Ho Chi Minh on Tripadvisor, holding the top spot among 1632 Food & Drink experiences with a perfect 5.0 rating from over 4,100 traveler reviews.
The ranking is based on the volume and consistency of reviews left by travelers who have taken a Saigon Vibes tour over time. Because Tripadvisor rankings are shaped directly by traveler feedback rather than an outside judging panel, the result reflects what guests have actually experienced firsthand, meal by meal, alley by alley.

Saigon Vibes built its tours around a simple idea: skip the usual tourist stops and walk guests through the narrow alleys and neighborhoods where the city actually eats. Many of the stalls and street vendors featured on a tour have been run by the same families for decades, serving dishes that rarely make it onto a typical visitor’s radar. One recent guest summed it up simply, praising the tour for “things we wouldn’t have been able to find on our own.” Groups are kept small by design, which gives local guides room to slow down, answer questions, and share the story behind each dish instead of rushing from one stop to the next.

Its recognitions include a nomination for the World’s Best Culinary Award 2026, the #1 Airbnb host ranking in Vietnam, the top position on TripAdvisor, and the Best of the Best 2026 award from TripAdvisor.

Absolutely fantastic experience and wonderful guides We had an absolutely fantastic food tour by bike with Top Notch in Ho Chi Minh City. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! A huge thank you to our wonderful guides Kelly, Kevin, Michael and Nam. They were all friendly, energetic, knowledgeable and incredibly attentive. We felt completely safe riding through the busy streets of Ho Chi Minh City, and they made the whole experience relaxed, fun and enjoyable. The food was amazing, and we loved being taken to local places that we would never have discovered on our own. Our two favourites were Bò Kho and Bánh Xèo — both were absolutely delicious! 😋 We also really enjoyed learning about the local food, culture and way of life from our guides along the way. What really made the tour special, though, was the guides. Kelly, Kevin, Michael and Nam were fantastic hosts — their enthusiasm, humour and genuine hospitality made us feel like we were exploring the city with friends rather than simply joining a tour. If you are visiting Ho Chi Minh City, we highly recommend Top Notch’s bike food tour. It’s a fantastic way to see the city, eat great food and experience the local culture from a completely different perspective. Thank you again, Kelly, Kevin, Michael and Nam, for such a memorable evening! We had a wonderful time and will definitely recommend you to our friends and family.

Ho Chi Minh City Street Food Walking Tour Emma was our tour guide. We were very lucky to have her. Emma was very energetic, knowledgeable, professional, personable and engaging through out the whole tour. We all had a great time and tasted some wonderful local food. But the tour would not have been the same without Emma. She was just a lot of fun to hangout with.

Bike food tour Great experience from start to finish. As a solo traveller it was a great way to meet people, experience authentic Vietmanese food and also see the city. The four guides that I met were fantastic, very friendly and knowledgable. Highly recommend!

The best street food tour in Ho Chi Minh City, without exception. Kelly and Andy’s street food tour was more than just a way to show tourists the best local places to eat. They are true ambassadors for Ho Chi Minh City and Vietnam. Not only did we get a taste of the local cuisine (10 magnificent dishes in total), but we also got a taste of the local culture in a way that only a native of this beautiful country could help us discover. Even a brief, torrential downpour halfway through the tour didn't dampen the experience. Kelly kindly bought us all ponchos and guided us to a dry place, while Andy waited and hand-delivered our food afterwards. Thank you both for showing us the Super-Niche street food spot in Ho Chi Minh City.

Highly recommend if you’re new to HCM Such a fantastic food tour! Kelly picked us up from our hotel, and then we walked across to our first stop. We made a total of 6 stops with 4x mains, 2x desserts, 3x snacks and 1x drink. Most dishes were local, unique and new to us, and all super delicious. Kelly also shared some cool facts around the neighbourhood. highly recommend if you’re new to Vietnam and want to try dishes other than Pho and Banh Xeo.

Walking food tour My wife and I spent a delightful afternoon with our guide Emma, she was informative, attentive and safe, which was greatly appreciated in the chaotic neighborhood traffic, we did the 1:00pm tour which included more than enough food to satisfy even the hungriest for both lunch and diner. There’s no way we could have ever have found these local spots.

An excellent food tour in Ho Chi Minh City that we really enjoyed. Emma and Will are very serious, dynamic, and professional. They are excellent drivers, very attentive, careful, and confident. Jeanne: It was my first time riding a motorbike, at 70 years old, but Emma reassured me and I really enjoyed it. They treated us to delicious meals, juices, and desserts (10 in total). We brought back a banh mi made with whole-grain fresh bread to the hotel; it was my favorite of the 10. We highly recommend them! John & Jeanne from France.
