A Great Experience! - I had an absolutely amazing time on this tour. I went with 1 other friend, so it was just us 2 and our guides. Our guides Mia and Ngân were so the eat! They were kind, knowledgeable, and explained everything we ate and experienced really well! They were excellent drivers, and I loved all the places we stopped. I also loved how they made it feel personal, and we never had a dull moment. Thanks for amazing memories!

Highly recommend this food tour - We had a fabulous night food tour with the team at Little Saigonese led by Elly, Jessica and Lih (probably spelled wrong-apologies). They happily met the needs of a vegetarian, slightly picky teen and someone willing to try everything. I felt completely safe and confident with them as scooter drivers and they combined food tasting with sightseeing perfectly. The tour lasted nearly 3 and a half hours and they chatted and talked about the city as we were on the move. I would highly recommend the tour.

Book this food tour in Saigon - I had an amazing experience with Elly from Little Saigonese Tour! She promptly picked me up from my accommodation and took me on a motorbike tour around the city—not only to try delicious traditional drinks and foods but also to explore some great sightseeing spots. Elly is an expert driver, speaks excellent English, and is incredibly friendly, making the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. I loved learning more about Saigon from her, and she even took some great pictures during the tour, which she kindly sent to me afterward. I wouldn’t hesitate to book another tour with this company. Thank you so much, Elly, for such a fantastic time!

Great experience for solo travellers or for anyone! - The tour was fantastic! My tour guide Elly was so knowledgeable and kind! As a solo female traveller I’m always looking for activities where I don’t feel alone and the kindness of the all female team made me know it would be brilliant! I would recommend doing it early in your Saigon visit as the sightseeing tour gave me great ideas on where to visit the next day! The food was all amazing! Elly also took loads of great photos of me so I can always remember the experience!

A delicious immersion in Saigon's culture - We booked this tour because we were interested in exploring the vietnamese culture. We really enjoyed it! Rosi and Elly were lovely girls and perfect tour guides. They took us to scenic spots where we took nice pictures, they drove safely, they stopped by eateries where we tasted delicious food, they made us feel comfortable and great all the time. Thanks to this tour we had the opportunity to appreciate the vietnamese culture and cuisine. Thank you girls, we had lot of fun!

Hi, Ly! - There were eleven of them. They went to our place to meet us at the exact time. I don't think I should spoil every specific detail, but it was a fun food tour. They brought us to great food places that show the uniqueness of Vietnamese food. It was very educational and mouthwatering. I loved the motorbike rides. They gave us a tour during the rush hour. It was extremely fun because of how much suspense you'd feel in contrast to how relaxed they are while driving. I think most of them were comfortable speaking the English language. But the one who accompanied me(Hi, Ly!) had a hard time speaking and understanding English. She told me I was her first client, so it was pretty understandable. I actually felt glad to know about that because it became an opportunity to help her feel more at ease with talking to foreigners, which is something that seemed really awesome to do. Ly is a really good driver. It was my first time being driven for by a woman on a motorbike. Of course they can do that. I just can't help but feel surprised in a good way. I thought I was able to connect with her in a friendly way. It's ifferent when you are talking to a tour guide and when you are talking to an average local, and I felt like I was simply talking to a regular Vietnamese girl. It was so raw and authentic. We even got to talk about unrelated things like Korean entertainment along the way. And despite the difficulty in communication, she was still able to teach me a lot of things. Thank you for teaching me words and phrases, and culture, Ly. You got me more interested in learning Vietnamese language. To every guide who accompanied us, thank you so much! We had a wonderful visit because of you girls!

Best thing to do in Ho Chi Mihn. You should not miss this! - The scooter food tour was absolutely unforgettable! The local guides were not only skilled riders but also the kindest and most accommodating people you could meet. They made us feel safe and welcomed as we explored hidden gems, savored authentic local dishes, and experienced the vibrant streets like a true local. Their warmth and genuine hospitality made this tour an absolute highlight of our trip! Each and every one of the guides was kind, fun, and absolutely amazing, leaving such a great impression that all the members of our group wanted to mention them by name: Mia, Rosie, Jenny, Serein, Ha, Tien, Pu, Ly, Chung, and Uyen. Elly, their leader, ensured everything was perfectly organized and made the experience incredibly fun from start to finish. Truly an unforgettable team!
