This was an awesome experience. The lead coordinator Jackie and his team made the evening so much fun. There were 14 of us and they took us all around the city to experience the various local eateries from drinks to desserts. Every thing was delicious. Being on the motorbikes and riding through the crazy streets amongst the traffic was so fun. All the drivers were very hospitable, attentive and made sure we were safe and watched over us. We enjoyed their company as they were very fun to converse with. This was a great experience and highly recommended.

This was the highlight of our visit! Group of 12 (4 adults 7 teens & 11 year old) took to the streets on scooters, it was a thrill to experience the Ho Chin Minh City traffic, we all felt safe and in good hands. Our tour guide leaders Jack, Mac. Rachel, Linh together with the rest of their team lead us through a culinary delight through the back streets of the many districts. The food was delicious and so much so dont eat before hand. We had so many laughs, they were a great bunch to hang out with for 3 hours. We also did the walking tour previously and we appreciated that they changed part of their tour so we didn’t have the same food. Highly recommend this tour

Such a fun time exploring local areas of HCMC on scooters. We were a family with children aged 13, 11, 9. My kids loved it. Enjoyed all the famous, traditional foods of the city without having to track it down ourselves. Was all so delicious! Cheese, Loc, cong, bao were fabulous guides! Had a fantastic time. Highly recommended!

Kelly, Thai and Ricky were our guides for the day, and let me say this was probably the BEST tour I have ever been on in ANY COUNTRY I have travelled thus far. At first, I was a little scared to get on the scooter with Kelly, but she instantly made me feel comfortable and at ease by talking with me during the entire ride, and it was great to have conversations about local culture with her. It felt like spending the day with close friends. They never pressured us to finish any of the dishes if we were too full (which I became stuffed pretty early on), but each and every dish was something new, intriguing, and best of all delicious. I recommend this tour to alll those who visit HCMC/Saigon. I love you Kelly, Thai and Ricky, take care!!
