A bucket list experience. Saigon at night on the back of a motorcycle visiting street food spots around Saigon. Our guides Kim and Hoang were excellent riders, had great English and gave us a great tour. They picked us up from our hotel during a tropical storm but provided us with rain coats and reassuringly negotiated the insane traffic and flooded streets to give us an experience of a lifetime. All the food was excellent especially the Bahn Mi and Bun Thit nuong. A word of warning, don’t eat everything at the early stops as you will be struggling to eat the last dishes by the end of the night. …

We booked a Street Food 101 evening tour with Saigon Street Eats. This was a very enjoyable and tasty introduction to the street food of Ho Chi Minh City. Our guides were helpful, friendly and knowledgeable and we learnt a lot not just about the food but history and culture along the way. We had 5 food stops, plus desert and all the food was delicious. We sampled a variety of traditional Vietnamese dishes, and tried some special dishes such as Conch Shell at the seafood stall. New to me and something I wouldn’t pick on my own. Be brave and try everything!! It really is yummy. It is clear that the food stalls we visited were selected as the best in their speciality dishes. We even had some tips on how to pick the best food stalls from the many available. There was plenty (more than enough!) food for a full stomach. So be warned - make sure you pace yourself to last the distance! Beer, water, soft drinks and some local specials were provided too. We travelled to the foodie neighbourhood from our hotel, and a couple of food stops by motorbike. That was an experience in itself! Thoroughly enjoyable and I felt safer on the bike than I would crossing the road! Not to be missed. A point to bear in mind is that the weather can be hot and humid for those not used to it so be prepared. Highly recommend this tour. …

A delicious and extremely fun way to see Ho Chi Minh City! Felt comfortable and completely safe riding with our guides on their scooters through several districts stopping for very generous portions of authentic Vietnamese street food stands. Come hungry and try to get guides Michelle, Minh and Trung. They are awesome!! …

This really is a must to do. The traffic here is crazy and it's definitely not something we wanted to navigate, even crossing the road is very difficult. Our host Phuc picked us up from our airbnb and took us to the night market. He was very knowledgeable and was a great host. We ate the most wonderful food. So much that we couldn't eat everything and had to take some home with us. If you are thinking about doing a food tour I would recommend this.…
