About this activity
Visit: Tiger Tours, Bock C 109 Ly Van Phuc street, Tan Dinh Ward, District 1 Ly Van Phuc apartment, Ho Chi Minh City 700000 Vietnam

At 5:00 p.m., greet your guide at the lobby of your hotel, then take a (grab) taxi to a secret alley. Here we will start the tour to not only enjoy great foods but also to learn so much about local life in Saigon!

You will try 3 different kinds of fresh spring-rolls at the first stop. We promise these will be the best of the best spring-rolls you’ve ever had. Especially we remix your spring-rolls with new ingredients that you would never think of, but it still tastes amazing!

Walking through the lesser-known parts of Saigon and visit these interesting places:
•A hand-made sedge & bamboo bags shop,
•A tailor-made hat shop that’s stayed open since 1960s.
•A martial art school that teaches Vietnamese traditional martial art.
•A local pagoda that lies inside a deep and quiet alley.

Get a detailed commentary about these places from your guide. She is also happy to answer any of your question regarding the culture, religion, cuisine, etc. Just simply ask anything make you curious about our country.

After the walking part, stop to rest and enjoy the two popular dishes “Com tam” – Broken rice served with BBQ pork and “Bot Chien” – deep-fried taro cakes served with papaya salad. A highly recommended drink here is a cup of cool kumquat or lemon tea to see why the locals love it so much!

Continue the walk to cross a big canal, from here you can take some nice pictures and enjoy the cool atmosphere at nighttime. Leave district 1 behind and step into a new district, then visit one of the most well-known food paradises of Saigoneers.

Here you will have chance to try “Banh Trang nuong” – Vietnamese street pizza, “Ha cao” – Vietnamese style dumplings, “Bo Ne” – Street style beefsteak, “Banh can” – Mini-size savory pancakes. Wait a bit, that’s not all, we’ve not even counted all types of snacks that you may feel interested to try.

Now you’re about to have a food coma so an exercise is much needed. Walking through a maze of alleys and find yourself standing in another new district – Phu Nhuan district. This is a newly developed area that attract a lot of young people hanging. Here we take you to enjoy all the Vietnamese traditional desserts in a local dessert shop. If you’re a fan of coffee, then the egg-coffee is not to be missed!

The tour ends at 9:00 a.m. Your lovely tour guide will help to arrange the taxis back to your hotel. Or you can decide to continue your own exploration with recommendations from your local friend.

This’s going to be one of your best nights in Vietnam. So, what are you waiting for, let’s check it out!
