Our tour guy Mac is THE MAN ! He knows his stuff. We did the vegan tour and Mac’s knowledge was fabulous. We experienced things we never would have found unless we had inside knowledge from Mac. We really did get amongst the locals, it was just brilliant ! Thank you Mac !🙏

Jack was an amazing tour guide who showed me so many amazing food spots. I loved the experience and learned so much about Vietnamese culture and food. Riding around the city on a motorbike taking in the sights was a was great. Would absolutely do this tour again. Highly recommended.

Such a fun tour to do on day one of our Vietnam holiday! Despite being our fourth time here, this vegan street food tour showed us parts of Ho Chi Minh City that we were unfamiliar with. The food options were exceptional – way more than we could eat (such a shame!), and my garlic intolerance was easily and happily accommodated. Our guides Jack and Rachel were fun, knowledgeable and exceptionally safe drivers – 10/10 recommend! Thank you again!
