About this tour
A four-hour guided motorbike tour through Saigon's vegetarian food culture and local neighbourhoods. You'll ride pillion through Nguyen Thien Thuat, the city's largest flower market, Chinatown, a floating market, and District 4, stopping to eat vegan noodles, spring rolls, mushroom hotpot, and tea with jam at local spots.

What to expect
You'll meet your guide and be fitted with a high-quality helmet, then climb on the back of a motorbike. The route starts in Nguyen Thien Thuat with a short walk to absorb local street life, then moves through the flower market on two wheels. Chinatown (District 5) comes next, including a stop at Thien Hau temple and a local coffee shop for tea. You'll head to a floating market for coconut juice and a guided stroll along the water, hearing about river livelihoods.
Final stop is District 4, finishing at a mushroom hotpot restaurant where you'll eat before the ride back to your hotel or your chosen drop-off point. The whole arc is four hours, with motorbike transit between locations and walking breaks at markets and temples.
