5.00I had the most incredible day on my motorbike food tour with Thai! He looked after me so beautifully from start to finish - making the whole experience easy, fun, and completely unforgettable. Thai took me to the most authentic local spots that I never would have found on my own, each one more delicious than the last. His knowledge of Ho Chi Minh City and its food culture was amazing, and he shared so many fascinating stories along the way. I really appreciated his time, energy, and company - such a great guide and genuinely lovely person. If you’re visiting HCMC, this tour (and Thai!) are an absolute must.
Excellent food tour with Vibes

5.00I went on a food tour with Emma today, and it was a great experience. She showed me around areas where local people usually eat and explained the food and history, which was very informative. She also drove me to different districts, and I really enjoyed the views—not just the touristy spots. Overall, it felt like a local friend was taking me out on a tour.
Very successful food tour !

5.00What a way to start off our 10-day trip to Vietnam. The experience exceeded expectations and offered us a sneak peek into Ho Chi Min City's street food scene. It was impossible to pick the top 3 dishes as all of them were amazing! Sitting on the back of a scooter as you scoot through HCMC was exhilarating. The drivers are experienced, and everyone seems to know what's going on via unspoken traffic rules. It was truly an unforgettable experience. Our first day in Vietnam with Emma and the rest of the crew (Lihn, Jakie & Kelvin) set the scene for the rest of our journey in Vietnam. The people we met along the way were the icing on the cake!
