For most first-time guests, the haste of Ho Chi Minh City can be a overwhelming prospect. In the event that there’s one thing to be experienced on the roads of Ho Chi Minh City, it’s the nourishment. Leaded by a local guide, you’ll encounter six famous and true dishes, a few hailing straightforwardly from Vietnam’s southern locale for a genuine sense of Saigon. From bun thit nuong to banh xeo to kem dua, you’ll taste Anthony Bourdain’s favorite cuisine—direct from locals’ favorite home bases.

WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1.
Your local street food tour guide, who is extremely passionate about Vietnamese street cuisine, will pick you up from your hotel by taxi before taking you on your culinary excursion to a non-tourist sector and our first stop will be at a famous local restaurant (over 30 years opening) in district 3, which got the Michelin award, specialising in "Bò lá lốt” (beef in wild betel leaves) and “Bún Thịt Nướng” (The advance rice paper rolls & Special rice noodles with grilled pork).
2.
Take a stroll down a street where "all kinds of street foods" are sold before going to a popular restaurant with the neighbourhood to taste "Bánh xèo" and “Bánh Khọt” (South and Central rice pancakes), one of the most popular and extremely traditional dishes in southern of Vietnam , and learn how they are made from a chef with over 20 years experience.
3.
You continue to immerse yourself in delectable cuisine as you make your way to the food alleys in the centre of the street food district, where you can sample a tasty "Bột Chiên" pan-fried rice cakes with egg and spring onions, prepared by a local chef with more than 25 years of experience, and then quench your thirst with sugar cane juice blended with a Vietnamese kumquat. Next up on your food adventure is "Bánh Cuốn" - Steamed rice rolls. Inside each piece of rolls, the sweet aroma of the mixture of pork, chopped onions, Jicama, mushrooms, salt, fish sauce, and black pepper, all lightly stir-fried before steaming will tantalize the taste eaters’ buds. You will experience the perfect fusion of 4 delicious flavors just after the first bite.
4.
At the night flower market, round up your Saigon street food walking tour with a delicious dessert like coconut ice cream, longan ice cream, or coconut ice cream blended with an avocado smoothie. Your local guide will ride in a cab with you so you may return to your lodging.

Tony is a total dude. Great to be shown the best local flavours from an expert guide. Really night walk to see the sights of District 3. Good value too. I’d recommend doing this on your first night in Saigon.

I really enjoyed this evening sampling different street foods around HCMC with Tony.

He is very well-informed and has curated an excellent selection of food and drink from his personal experiences as someone who clearly knows the city well. We visited a variety of stalls that I would not have known existed without Tony’s local knowledge, including the best Bánh Mì of my trip so far.

His English is excellent and he also kindly arranged a cab from my hotel to and from the tour area. I felt safe and comfortable throughout. I would highly recommend his tour to everyone and wish him all the best!

The food was delicious!
I wasn't a fan of the sandwich "ban mi", but everything else was great, especially the beef stew "bo kho"!

Tony, the guide, was friendly, spoke English quite well, and was great at explaining everything and answering questions.

Definitely recommend, especially if you've never had Vietnamese food before or if you have limited time in Vietnam and want to try as many local dishes as possible 🙂

Tony is an excellent host. Well spoken, accurate, attractive and passionate about food and Ho Chi Minh street food scene.
If you want a real home grown experience and live like a local this is the tour for you. See the back streets and secluded street food market.
Excellent food choices.
I Highly recommend this tour.
Thank you Tony for your hospitality!

Tony our motorbike street food tour guide was amazing. He took us to locations we would never have gone to and eaten from. The traditional Vietnamese food was amazing. Tony was very informative and interactive which made the experience all the better. Highly recommend!

I was picked up by Tony on time from my hotel and taken straight to District 3 where we walked for the rest of the tour. I got to try 5 different dishes whilst walking around this great part of town. I wouldn't have known where to go or what to eat here without Tony's help. I much preferred walking and being immersed in this part of town than the scooter tour option offered by others. It was also great to meet Tony and learn about him, his family and Vietnam as well as lots about the food. Great thing to do on my first night in Vietnam!

We absolutely loved the street food tour with Tony. Delicious food from a diverse range of locations, including walking through the intensely lively night food markets, the Nguyen Thien Thuat Apartment Buildings, and other areas in District 3.

Tony was a fantastic guide, knowledgeable, friendly and a great communicator, who made things very easy for us with our two youngish kids.

The tour gave us a glimpse of a food culture and way of life so unlike our own, and we feel fortunate to have been able to experience it.

We had an excellent food tour with Tony. He took us to some out of the way places we could never have found on our own. Tony was very knowledgeable about all the food styles we tried , extremely friendly and lovely guide. I would highly recommend this food tour.
