Tan and Richie were incredibly friendly and welcoming… The vegan food was amazing, and we loved the engaging conversations. They were very attentive to our dietary preferences, ensuring everything was perfect. Best bike tour hosts! We learned more about Vietnam and its people during this tour than throughout most of our trip. I’d definitely recommend it to more of my friends!

One of the absolute best ways to get to know Ho Chi Minh. My sister and I participated in this food tour in August 2024 and had a ball of a time. Our guides Kelly and Ricky brought us to vegetarian/vegan spots that we would not have been able to locate on our own, including in a residential neighbourhood in the city. besides pho, banh mi and hu theiu, we had a really refreshing papaya salad, coconut water… these are not even half the number of dishes that we had that evening. They were knowledgeable, and (importantly) skillful in navigating the busy roads of HCM on their bikes 😉 I learnt so much about Vietnamese culture through conversation with Kelly and Ricky. highly recommend this!

This would have to be one of the best Street Food Tours I have done and would highly recommend to ANYONE who wants to experience the vibe of HCMC on the back of a motorbike/scooter topped with the experience of the amazing Street Food available on offer here.Save space…lots of space before hand as you will definitely not be left hungry! All the food we sampled was delicious and the atmosphere made by not only the locals and thier food but by our wonderful guides Kris and Steven who were the ‘GOAT’s for us. They made the night for us with their knowledge, kindness, feeling safe, good banter and overall top notch service that they provided on this tour. We are ever so grateful.

What an incredible experience! My husband and I went on the tour with Kris and Emma, and it felt like a fun night out with new friends. We loved every moment—from the thrill of navigating Ho Chi Minh City’s traffic to discovering the hidden sides of the city and, of course, the amazing food. Truly, wow! We highly recommend doing this at the start of your trip so you can try all the traditional dishes and pick up tips on how to enjoy them even more. Our guides were the best part, going above and beyond to make it unforgettable. Thank you, Kris and Emma, for giving us a night we’ll never forget!

This was THE BEST way to explore Saigon. We went to places we would never have made it to on our own and tried the most delicious vegan food! Kris and Ricky were so friendly and knowledgable and we learnt a lot about Vietnamese culture which was wonderful ❤️ it was an epic journey on mopeds that made us feel like locals and felt like we were being exposed to the best tastes of the town! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others but maybe next time we would do a couple of days into our trip instead of the first day so our bellies have time to adjust to Vietnamese delights!
