Amazing experience not to be missed with Vy and Levi! - My husband and I had the most amazing time on the tour with Vy and Hung (Levi)! Being my first time on a motorbike, I was quite nervous at first, but Vy very quickly put me at ease, and I always felt incredibly safe and well looked after! They took us to delicious food spots in the outer districts and showed us iconic places within the city as well, even going out of their way to take me to the apartment Cafe and Notre Dame which I hadn't had a chance to see yet. We met as strangers and parted as friends! I'd highly recommend them both to anyone as a must do experience when in Saigon! They truly do go over and above to make your trip a memorable one!

Cheers to Kieran and the team. My Saigon trip is complete. - It made my saigon trip extra special. Im coming back to my country tomorrow and decided to have tour to experience Saigon one last time and it didn’t disappoint. I was so full I got sleepy and have to do takeouts 😭🤣. The boss was so pretty and she even come to give me the food they were looking coz the store has closed since it’s night time. The guide, Kieran, OMG he’s just the best. So friendly and knowledgeable plus so nice. I’ll definitely come back here next time and I’ll look for Kieran. The best tour guide I ever had 👌❤️

Tourguides with wholeheart - Our tour guides and their friends were absolutely amazing! This is a must-try experience in Saigon. Our tour guides spoke excellent English and not only gave us a fantastic food tour but also provided us with a rich cultural experience. The places we visited served incredibly delicious food (in our opinion), and our tour guides even took us to the local flower market. Overall, it was a truly wonderful and unforgettable experience that we will always treasure.

Fantastic HCMC food tour - We had a very enjoyable time with Tien Tien, Minh, Dat as our tour guides. Our young and enthusiastic guides took us on their motorbikes around areas of HCMC we hadn’t seen before and places we wouldn’t have found by ourselves. We tried some delicious food and were very full by the end. Our guides were very knowledgeable and spoke fluent English. It was a fun experience and definitely recommended when visiting HCMC.

Best food tour ever - This was such a great experience. Four hours of exploring HCMC city and trying several traditional meals, historical areas, and markets. My guide Vy was super knowledgeable and friendly and it was fun being a scooter passenger through the traffic, being taken to each food location and learning about the story of the different meals. Definitely worth it and the best way to try delicious local food and see some unique places. It was also convenient to meet at the opera house and get dropped back to my accommodation with a full stomach.

Lovely local food tour - We did a lovely food tour with Yen and V. They were so kind, and also were sensitive about our food preferences. They took us to places we wouldn’t have gone on our own. They are both excellent bike drivers and we really enjoyed the tour despite the rain. Thanks Yen and V!
