Hold it tight! After hotel pickup by scooter, zoom off your first stop for an appetizer.

Then, take a walk around the street food heaven in District 10 to taste 4#shredded pork crispy rice and 5#fried bao buns. At the next stop, immerse yourself in the biggest flower market of Saigon and try the best 6#Vietnamese pizza, 7#grilled crackers, and challenge yourself with 8#snails stuffed with pork. Next, venture into the oldest apartment area to enjoy sugarcane juice and 9#Hue beef noodle soup before stopping for fantastic 10#Banh mi. Finally, head for 11#dessert with different flavored caramel flans and jellies before heading back to your hotel. Especially your guides(also your drivers) are local students who are excellent licensed drivers, well-trained and fluent in English

Take this tour!

Published on Jan, 2025

Great kids (we were their grandparents age) driving the scooters, personable, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. Tried foods we normally wouldn't have known about,. Superb way to learn about HCMC and the range of foods.

Great food, friendly guides. Highly recommended experience.

We highly recommend the 11 course seafood tour of Saigon by scooter which we did with Kelvin, Brian, Daniel and Chloe. It was like hanging out with local friends showing us around town to their favourite local spots which we would never have found on our own. We were all given helmets and once we got over the initial chaos of traffic, the scooter felt safe and fun to ride. Our guides were super friendly, kind and helpful. They taught us about the history of each district, the ingredients and preparation of each dish and how to eat them like a local. Our favourite dish was the banh xeo, which was delicious, and we even got to try and make them ourselves! We really appreciated that the tour description listed all the ingredients and gave us a detailed itinerary of which district we were going to. We all learnt so much about Vietnamese food and had a super fun time with our hosts. Even though we have had a lot of Vietnamese food in the past, we were still introduced to new, interesting and delicious dishes that we have never tried before. At the end of the night we were rolling out of the restaurants, stuffed with delicious food! Thank you for the fantastic tour!! We would recommend this tour to everyone!

Scoot around town for a great time.

Fantastic tour - best way to see the city. Tour guides were amazing and what a great experience on the scooters!! Would highly recommend this tour.

Excellent tour!

Published on Jan, 2025

The tour was fantastic. Our main tour guide was Kelvin and my scooter driver was Paul. Kelvin explained about each place and food well. Everything was interesting and I enjoyed listing to Kelvin's explanation at each place. We visited so many places and tasted 11 different local foods with drinks that I would never find myself. Paul always made us laugh with his jokes and his story like he has many different kinds of pets. It was fun talking with him too. Kelvin and all the other scooter drivers were great team work. I highly recommend this tour for all tourist who visit HCM. Thanks to Kelvin and Paul for the great experience and fun. Regards, Takako

Great Saigon Experience

Published on Jan, 2025

What a wonderful experience to try so many kinds of street food and learn about them from young Vietnamese student guides. I was a bit uneasy at first getting on the back of a motorbike, but found it exciting to travel around to different areas of Saigon with an experienced driver/guide who spoke good English.
