Eat Like a Local on a Saigon Scooter Food Tour through Hidden Districts
There are a zillion food tours in Saigon — but this is the only one where you won’t see a single other tourist. Within minutes, you’re off the typical routes and riding pillion through 6 different districts, including hidden alleys and local ‘hoods you’d never find on your own. It’s not just about food (though you’ll eat very, very well) — it’s about seeing Saigon like a local, with locals.Unlike most food tours that stick around District 1 and visit the same well-known spots, this one dives deep into the city’s real day-to-day — suburban markets, backstreets, family-run eateries, and even the most personal stop of all: your guide’s very own home. This is where you’ll end the tour with fresh seasonal fruit and proper Vietnamese hospitality. Every bite is curated from over 300 places, with seasonal dishes, lesser-known street food gems (like duck turmeric noodles), and a variety of styles — from grilled to steamed to sweet treats you’ve probably never tried before.The guides are what make this experience truly unforgettable — warm, funny, and all born and raised in Saigon. They've crafted this non-touristy, small-group experience to feel more like being out with local friends, not following a flag on a stick. Whether it's your first time in Vietnam or your fifth, this isn't just a food tour — it's an insider’s ride through the city's soul.What to ExpectRide on the back of a scooter through 6 diverse, non-touristy districts of SaigonSample 7–8 authentic dishes, desserts, and drinks – tailored to any dietary needsDiscover unique local eats like duck turmeric noodle soup, BBQ lemongrass beef, and moreExperience a variety of cooking styles, from grill and steam to deep-fried and boiledVisit alleyways and communities that even most locals haven’t exploredEnd the tour with a rare visit to your guide’s home in District 8 — share seasonal fruits and a slice of real local life

Meet your host
Phuc is one of those hosts who instantly makes you feel at ease. Starting out as a freelance tour guide, he teamed up with friends in 2022 to create something a bit different — small group tours that really reflect the spirit of Saigon. He’s all about showing travellers the real city, the way locals live it. Born and raised here, Phuc brings a genuine connection to every experience, whether it’s chatting with market vendors or introducing you to neighbourhoods tourists often miss. His name means “Happy”, and it fits — he’s all smiles, full of energy, and clearly loves what he does. With a fresh, thoughtful style, Phuc’s tours feel more like hanging out with a local friend than ticking off sights.
