Free Tour of Ho Chi Minh: Golden Hour in Saigon
Overview
When the sun sets, Saigon lights up and so does its street food scene. Join a local guide for an evening walking tour through hidden alleys, lively markets, and buzzing street corners where the city’s real flavours live.
This isn't your typical food tour. Along the way, we’ll uncover untold stories, visit spots you won’t find in guidebooks, and meet the people behind the food. From sizzling Banh Xeo to soul-warming noodle soup, every bite tells a story, and we’re here to share it.
We’ll also explore a slice of local life: old flat blocks, secret food stalls, and corners where history and culture meet flavour.
Ready to walk, talk, and eat like a local? Let’s hit the streets and discover Saigon after dark, one delicious step at a time.
