What you can expect

Join a private, guided 4-hour walking food tour in Saigon with your own dedicated local guide. You’ll savour 12 authentic dishes at 7–8 carefully selected stops, ranging from hidden street stalls to beloved area favourites. This experience is perfect for families and anyone wanting a personalised, intimate journey through the city’s culinary heart.

The adventure begins at a hidden gem in District 1, where you’ll dive into a steaming bowl of Bún Bò Huế, a rich and flavourful beef noodle soup. Prefer chicken or pork? No problem—there’s something for everyone! Next, try Chuoi Nuong, Vietnam’s top dessert: coconut milk grilled plantain, sweet and salty with coconut milk sauce, tapioca, and toasted sesame seeds.

You’ll continue to the vibrant Nguyễn Thiện Thuật area for Bánh Khọt, crispy savoury pancakes topped with shrimp, served with fresh herbs and dipping sauce. After a short walk to the flower and Cambodian markets, you’ll sample BBQ beef wrapped in betel leaf, fresh spring rolls, grilled oysters (or Vietnamese pizza if you prefer), and local snacks like banana or coconut crackers.

Refresh yourself with cold sugarcane juice with kumquat before hopping in a taxi to District 10, where the tour culminates at a famous local hangout. Here, you’ll enjoy Saigon’s iconic Bánh Mì, the city’s best-known baguette, and finish with classic desserts like egg and milk flan or sweet black bean soup, along with iced jasmine tea and cold Saigon beer.

Menus can change slightly depending on lunch or dinner times, and for lighter appetites, there’s an option with 7 tastings plus cultural exploration. This tour skips fancy restaurants and touristy spots, focusing instead on genuine local experiences and authentic flavours.

With flexible departure times every hour from 1:00 PM to 7:00 PM, this tour is ideal for anyone seeking a true taste of Saigon.
