What to expect

Prepare to delve into the heart of Saigon, tasting and uncovering its hidden gems. Your adventure starts with a serving of Cơm Tấm – a city favourite of broken rice topped with succulent BBQ pork and a golden fried egg. This dish encapsulates the story of Saigon's humble yet rich culinary heritage. Venture into history as you meander through one of Saigon’s oldest apartment blocks. The crumbling facades and timeworn staircases echo tales of bygone eras. Indulge in the sweet, comforting flavours of banana sticky rice cake, a local delicacy, before immersing yourself in the bustling flower market. Here, an eruption of colour and fragrant blooms invigorate your senses.

No exploration of Saigon is complete without sampling bánh mì—the iconic baguette filled with rich flavours and crunchy pickles. Enjoy robust Vietnamese coffee at a historic café, observing life on Fashion Street, where Saigon’s energy is palpable. Find tranquillity at Thieu Hau Temple, one of Chinatown’s most sacred pagodas, where incense wafts through ancient corridors. Then, partake in a hands-on feast with crispy rice pancakes, "Bánh Xèo", wrapped in fresh greens for you to dip and savour each bite.

Conclude your day at renowned locations such as Ben Thanh Market, the lively Walking Street or the charming Pink Church. Each offers a glimpse into Saigon’s diverse charm. Saigon’s hidden gems beckon—a harmonious blend of food, culture, and unforgettable experiences awaits you!
