Ho Chi Minh City Food Tour Itinerary

Your guide will pick you up from your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City. You'll travel on a motorbike to explore the best food trucks, stalls, and shops. The routes vary depending on whether you choose a morning, lunchtime, or nighttime tour.

Morning and Lunchtime Food Tour

The tour begins with a typical Vietnamese dish; broken rice, served with barbecue pork, vegetables, pickled carrots, and fish sauce. You'll see the old quarter of the city and enjoy a local coffee before visiting the Flower Market, the largest in the country, where you can learn about flower-buying traditions.

Next, explore Chinatown, visiting the Chinese Lantern Market, Chinese Medicine Market, and the oldest Chinese temple in Vietnam. You will then try local crepes filled with Asian vegetables, meats, and seafood.

Afterward, visit the floating market and enjoy fresh coconut water. The tour concludes with a traditional Vietnamese beef noodle soup, before returning to your hotel.

Nighttime Food Tour

The nighttime tour follows a similar route but adapts for evening dining. It starts with broken rice and a visit to the Flower Market, skipping coffee. You'll ride through mafia territory and enjoy Vietnamese crepes. The tour then features banh mi, a Vietnamese baguette filled with exotic flavors.

The final stop is for BBQ fish and seafood, paired with a Vietnamese beer. After this, you will be returned to your hotel.
