Saigon is famous for street food, but finding the best spots takes hours of research. We'll take you straight to food stalls and local restaurants serving southern flavours passed down for generations. This tour is just $29, including 8 varieties of dishes, 1 beer, 1 dessert, and hotel pickup. We focus strictly on the quality of the food - our Vietnamese beef stew is even better than the Michelin one, but at a third of the price!

We're a licensed international tour operator (License No. 79-2744/2026/CDLQGVN-GP). We provide travel insurance coverage up to $5,000 on this tour.

HCMC Food Tour on Motorbike
Don’t be afraid of the motorbike!! 😎. I had a great time: it was fun buzzing through traffic, and it was definitely cooler than the walker good tour. My tour guide, Ricky, did a great job explaining what I was eating, where we were at and who the proprietors were, and most of all—he didn’t rush me along. His English skills were way above average; during our second stop for instance he talked all about his favorite American actors (Tom Hanks, Vin Diesel, etc) and their movies. Great tour—go for the motorbikes!

Super fun experience even in the rain!
Super experience - even with the rain!! 4 hours scooting around Saigon in the back of bikes tasting fantastic flavours from Vietnam - not the usual! We had a ball even if the rain was bucketing down. Was like a fun water park at times. Guides were great fun - great chats with them. Thoroughly recommend!

Why this scores 77
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Street Food Tour by Motorbike in Ho Chi Minh City: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ho Chi Minh City.
How much does Private Street Food Tour by Motorbike in Ho Chi Minh City cost?
+
Prices start at $32 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ho Chi Minh City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Street Food Tour by Motorbike in Ho Chi Minh City take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ho Chi Minh City is not rushed.
Is Private Street Food Tour by Motorbike in Ho Chi Minh City worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 84 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ho Chi Minh City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Street Food Tour by Motorbike in Ho Chi Minh City?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Street Food Tour by Motorbike in Ho Chi Minh City suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Street Food Tour by Motorbike in Ho Chi Minh City?
+
Around 29 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ho Chi Minh City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ho Chi Minh City and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Street Food Tour by Motorbike in Ho Chi Minh City start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ho Chi Minh City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Ho Chi Minh City?
+
On Outty we rank every Ho Chi Minh City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cai Be Mekong Delta Tour: Cooking Class, Cycling & Craft Villages, Adventure Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta Tour From HCM, Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta 1 Day Tour With Small Group. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Ho Chi Minh City?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Ho Chi Minh City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
