Food On Foot Tour In Ho Chi Minh City

08.30 AM - ViTravel’s food expert will pick you up at your hotel or any location in the city center. Our food expert will brief you about what to expect while sightseeing and safety instructions before the food tour start.

09.00 AM - We begin at Nguyen Thien Thuat backstreet – The Lively Saigon. You will pass through one of the typical streets of the city with constructions dating back to the 1960s. Along the street are many Vietnamese guitar makers’ stores. There are also many interesting eateries. Mass residential apartment buildings are on the back street. Wandering around here gives you an idea of how lively Ho Chi Minh City is. Get your camera ready for many special moments that come suddenly on the streets. This first walk starts from Nguyen Thien Thuat street and ends at Ban Co market. You will have a chance to try a Vietnamese popular sweetened soup (the desserts made of beans, sticky rice, taro, longan fruit and coconut milk…).

10.00 AM - Travel to districts 10 and 5 to stroll through more typical residential apartment buildings. And again, you will witness Ho Chi Minh city from another angle: the lifestyles on the streets with shops, street food stalls and rickshaws passing.

11.30 AM – Following Hai Thuong Lang Ong & Trieu Quang Phuc streets - the traditional medicine streets in China Town. This is an area concentrated with traditional clinics and medicine herb stores. Walking along the streets, you can smell the herbs and watch the shop owners do their business. Visit Thien Hau Temple (built by Chinese people to worship Ocean Goddess - an important god in their culture).

12.00 PM - Go to a local restaurant for lunch then come back to the hotel around 1.00 pm.

Tour ends.
