BEST EXPERIENCE EVER

Published on Feb, 2025

OMG! This was the best freaking experience ever. My friends and I did this food tour around a month ago and we still can’t stop talking about it. We are traveling around the world and so far it has been our favorite experience. I would highly recommend this to anyone. Harry was absolutely amazing and made it so Comfortable and fun for us. Thank you guys so much. We would love to come back one day.

Something for everyone!

Published on Jan, 2025

This was the highlight of our time in HCMC. Our group was hard to please - 2 kids under the age of 12, 2 adults over the age of 70, and the couple in the middle! There was something for everyone to enjoy. The hosts were lovely, friendly, and always put our safety first. I cannot recommend this tour more.

You won’t regret it!

I had an amazing time. I was picked up by Gracie from my hotel. I was a little worried about travelling around on a moped but even though the roads are super busy, everyone drives at quite safe speeds and Gracie was an excellent driver. She took me to a few different food places around the city. The food choices were excellent and they were able to accommodate all of my dietary requirements with no problem at all. Gracie took the time to explain every dish and the best way to eat them. Everything was super fresh and so delicious. My favourite dishes were the banh khot (little deep fried rice and coconut pancakes with a prawn in each one). So yummy and moreish. A highly recommended tour and Gracie was a lovely tour guide!

Tasty and fun night out in Saigon

Published on Jan, 2025

Albert, Bailey, and Joseph were our wonderful drivers, guides, hosts, and friends for a night. My family of four including two kids enjoyed scootering around Saigon, the best way to experience the pulsating nightlife, especially with all the colors, flowers, and energy pre-Têt. We had unique dishes like young jackfruit salad and delicious beef stew (bò kho gánh) since 1975 that just got its Michelin Bib Gourmand. In addition to the fun and diverse food, we appreciated getting to know several sweet and young professionals to learn about their lives.

A Wonderful Blend of Food and Culture in Ho Chi Minh City

Published on Jan, 2025

We had an incredible experience with Thuy and Albert on their motorcycle street food tour in Ho Chi Minh City! From start to finish, their hospitality, enthusiasm, and knowledge made this an unforgettable evening. Riding through the city on motorcycles was such a fun and unique way to explore, and the food stops were absolutely amazing – each dish was more delicious than the last! What sets this tour apart is that it’s not only about tasting great food but also about immersing yourself in the local culture. Thuy and Albert shared fascinating stories and insights about the city and its food, which made the experience even more special. On top of that, they were incredibly patient and accommodating with our daughter, making sure the experience was enjoyable for our whole family. If you're looking for an authentic and enjoyable way to discover the best food spots and get a true sense of Ho Chi Minh City's vibrant culture, this tour is a must-do. Thank you, Thuy and Albert, for the wonderful memories!
