As you know, Vietnam is called “kitchen of the world” where we have many yummy dishes, not only Pho but also Banh Mi. While Saigon is the biggest dynamic city in our country, you can easily find every specialty foods if you know exactly where it is. Our locals do believe the most delicious food is originally served at street vendors or small local restaurants but not at touristy fancy restaurants with lazy long menu.

    Evening foodie tour of Saigon's back streets.

    We did a foodie tour with Tim, a local boy who was friendly, knowledgeable and very enthusiastic. His spoken English was excellent. He took us to places that we would never have dreamed of finding on our own. He described the food and ingredients with fascinating detail. None of the street food we tried can we find in Australia. All freshly made on the spot and super delicious. Felt like a local for a brief moment in time. Would not hesitate to do the tour again with Tim. The private tour was booked through the hotel we were staying.

    Informative, funny, engaging, fun for all ages

    We had a fantastic afternoon with Hao. We had 2 families on the tour, and he went out of his way to make sure every one of us enjoyed ourselves. It was such a great way to experience Saigon and so glad we did it. Hao had lots of really interesting information to share, and the way he did it with humour and energy was brilliant! Thanks again for a great afternoon!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're so glad to hear that you had a fantastic afternoon with Hao and that he made sure everyone in your group enjoyed the experience. It’s great to know that Hao’s interesting information, humor, and energy added to your Saigon adventure. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you again for another unforgettable tour in the future!

    Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ho Chi Minh City.

    How much does Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car cost?

    +

    Prices start at $39 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 Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car 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 Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 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 Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car?

    +

    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 Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car 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 Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car?

    +

    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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car 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.

    What is included in Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car?

    +

    Included: AC car or mini van; 4 food stops with Unlimited meal and drinks; Free pick-up and drop off in Saigon; and Friendly English speaking (surcharge for other languages). Not included: Tips and personal expenses. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2588 listed pickup locations in and around Ho Chi Minh City. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car offered in?

    +

    It is offered in German, Russian, Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, English, Italian, French and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Saigon Street Food Tour by Private Car if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
