Add this to your ‘Must Do’ list! - Loved this street food tour through Saigon with Nancy. Excellent English, so knowledgeable and extra compassionate to the young travellers on our tour who were out on their own for the first time and were a bit anxious. Food was amazing, absolutely a must do.

Authentic backstreet food - This a tour hosted by I tepid tour company around various small vendors in the back streets away from tourist spots We ate 6 dishes and toured some interesting places. The last stop was beer street. The food was typical Vietnamese food with one or two dishes I had not tried before. Our guide was Nancy who was enthusiastic and happy the whole time.
