Delicious, authentic and informative walking food tour - A wonderful and informative evening through the streets of HCMC. Everything you could want in a Vietnamese food tour. We would never have found these places on our own nor knew what to order. A great way to get to know the city. Absolutely delicious!

Awesome street food tour with kids - Tony was a great host. He took us to some neat little food stalls we never would have tried on our own. He had lots of interesting information to share and was very personable. He was very honest and quick to help fix an issue with our payment. I highly recommend doing a food tour in Ho Chi Minh!

He had a lovely relationship with all the vendors and was very relaxed . Nothing was a trouble to him. It was a truly delightful experience. Delicious and interesting food and a delightful experience walking down old lanes with unique food stalls. The Street Food markets was a unique experience. Thank you Tony.

Street Food Fun - Was an interesting assortment of street vendors — one stand alone in an alley that had the best ban minh and others near the 24-hour flower market. My guide, Tippy, was great in showing me how to put together a rice pancake, identifying all the greens and herbs that were included with it. Also enjoyed the sugar cane juice!

Pure trash - Tony refused to refund my money despite heavy rain and he had to cancel the tour. So unethical!! I hope you sleep well taking my money that does not belong to you.
