4.00This was our first night in Vietnam so we were looking to experience some local food. Our guide Daniel was very knowledgeable on the local herbs and cuisine and how to eat Vietnamese food. We walked to several vibrant neighborhoods navigating through lots of bustling streets and traffic so just prepare yourself for a one of a kind experience.
The best way to learn about the wonderful Vietnamese food.

5.00Daniel was amazing. His English was great. His rapport with us and each restaurant was incredible. I am certain we would not have had such an extensive experience with Vietnamese food, even if we stayed another week. He showed us many of the foods on his phone. It was close to the New Year. The streets were decorated and Daniel gave us an above the street view. He went over and above to get us across the bustling streets of HCMC. I was always a bit nervous!! He was solid and safe! A great adventure.
Great guide, great food, great experience!

5.00Daniel was an incredible guide, very knowledgable about Ho Chi Minh City and the local food. As someone who does not enjoy motorbikes this walking tour was perfect. I tried some tasty food I wouldn’t have tried otherwise and Daniel was very considerate, taking my food preferences into account. I did the tour on my first night and it was a great way to learn more about the city and the food and Daniel gave me some excellent recommendations for food and activities to try during my stay. 10/10 would recommend!
Excellent Experience

5.00The food tour was an impromptu plan and I loved it. Mostly, because of the guide Mr. Bob. He was energetic and enthusiastic in explaining about the food and the country. The food we tried were unique to Vietnam and the choice was great

5.00I did the street food tour with Vũ Tuấn Anh. He was an amazing host. His English was perfect and his personality was funny, happy and kind! It was raining really heavily, but he asked us if we wanted to continue and was still happy to do so. He took us to places I would have never found on my own and taught us how to corrdlectly eat the food (like wrapping the crispy pancakes!) A girl in our group was vegetarian and he also catered to her needs. He had a real talent being a tour guide and made my LAST night in vietnam a special memory! I recommend to everyone.
