This food tasting tour was the highlight of our time in Ho Chi Minh. The food selections were excellent and delicious. The street foods gave us a good sense of how locals eat in the city. Grace was our personal tour guide. This is a private tour with no other groups. Grace was so gracious and friendly. As a Viet Namese resident she spoke from experience. She led us through street food sites in sections 3 and 10. We would have never found on our own. Thank you Grace for a truly memorable experience.
