Great fun, good food and good company
This tour was such fun showing our family of four (including two teenagers) around the city with some great street food choices. The guides customised our tour to suit two vegetarians and a pescatarian. All the guides had excellent English and interesting to talk too, and we felt safe on the motorbikes. Would definitely recommend.

Max to the Max
Amazing tour experience in Vietnam. Max and friends were great at giving us a tour to local hotspots in Saigon. We always find Max every time we visit saigon. This would be our fourth visit and fourth time touring new places in Saigon. Would recommend.

This is much more than a tour. It's something that can change your life.
Some things in our lives do not happen by chance... After spending some time in Asia, I decided to go to Saigon. I was willing to take a tour and had the privilege of being with Henry on a night tour in the city. In addition to showing me the city through an incredible look, Henry told me about something that made all the difference in my company. Our conversation went beyond the tour, we talked about life, ate delicious food, talked about human attitudes and business. After talking about what I was doing to make money, he gave me a tip, suggesting me to sell monks' miniatures to my clients. He told me about the little monks and their significance in Vietnamese culture. Today this product is one of the best selling in my store. And I'm very happy because apart from selling I'm making other people happy through this learning. Thank you Henry for showing me your amazing city and food and making my business grow even further. If you are thinking of doing this tour, do not think twice. Just do it! It will be very worthwhile and you will get a lot of insights into things that can change your life. Again: Thank you Henry! Bruno
Response from the operator: Hi Bruno, Thank you so much for sharing your feeling. I appreciate it. I love the way you enjoy your life. Contact me when you go to Vietnam again. Keep in touch and Best wish for your business! Best Regard, Henry.

Why this scores 53
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Explore Saigon Food with Local Foodie: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ho Chi Minh City.
How much does Explore Saigon Food with Local Foodie cost?
+
Prices start at $600000 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 Explore Saigon Food with Local Foodie take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Explore Saigon Food with Local Foodie worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 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 Explore Saigon Food with Local Foodie?
+
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 Explore Saigon Food with Local Foodie suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Explore Saigon Food with Local Foodie?
+
Around 1 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Explore Saigon Food with Local Foodie 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 Adventure Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta Tour From HCM, Cu Chi Tunnels Small-Group Tour: Vietnam War Underground Network, Cu Chi underground tour - Learn Vietnam war with others. 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.
