Amazing Ho Chi Minh Experience - a must do! - Wow, this tour was just awesome. Zipping around Ho Chi Minh on the back of a scooter was such an experience, our group of 12 all felt safe every time we were on the scooters. We even had the experience of being in a rainstorm and even then our drivers made us feel so safe. The BOTB team were so much fun. We had 5 food stops throughout the night and all food options were great, and we had a couple of people with food allergies and they were all catered for.
I wish the ratings went up to 10 stars as i cannot stop raving about this tour/company to all my friends.
Thanks BOTB team, such an amazing night!

Such a memorable evening with friends and family - This has been my 3rd time on a food bike tour like this, every time with a different company, so I was interested to see how different or similar it would be to the others. I was not disappointed. What I loved about the food options was that they were very different from the others that I have had before. 10/10 for this. So tasty!
This time was also the first time I took my 7 and 10 year old on such a tour. They absolutely loved it. We were a group of 8 with friends visiting from the UK (with teens) and they have never been on bikes so needless to say they were nervous. We expressed our concerns at the beginning with the staff and they were great in reassuring us. All the staff spoke very good English so communication was straight forward. They were so friendly and were able to engage both old and young in conversation. We finished the evening with full tums and everyone had a great evening! I would highly recommend this tour.

Best food tour we've ever done! - The Back of the Bike Tours was the best food tour we've ever done! It was so much fun sitting on the back of the bike weaving through Ho Chi Minh City traffic. Our guides Hoa and Ai were absolutely amazing. They thought us so much about HCMC and all the districts while driving through. This was definitely a highlight of the tour (apart from the food), seeing all these areas of the city we would've otherwise not have gone to.
Food was absolutely delicious and we even got the chance to make 2 of the dishes ourselves! What an amazing experience. The guides introduced us to so many new dishes which was great for the rest of our travels through Vietnam.
Thanks again team! Highly recommend booking this tour!

Great evening - street food and bikes - We had a wonderful evening hosted by Kim, Trinh, Tham and Nhung - a wild ride on scooters, fantastic street food and hands on cooking experience and great conversation about Ho Chi Minh City and Vietnam. Thank you very much for a great experience.

The most fun you will have on a food tour - This tour was so much fun, I would have never tried all the food spots they took us too on my own, as they drove our group all around the city. My tour guide Muy (Sorry I forgot the spelling) was so lovely and very friendly. The food was delicious and they made sure we had plenty to eat, I was so full by the end.

Amazing food tour- simply the best!!! - I cannot say enough good things about this tour. I was skeptical about the price at first. It is higher than other food tours. But it is worth EVERY cent. Not only is there more than enough food. You learn how to make a couple different small dishes. We loved being on the back of the scooters. We learned so much about day-to-day life from our tour guides who answered all of our questions and shared so much about themselves. I am really pleased with this tour and will probably book another one (not food but with the same company) before I leave!

Highlight of our trip - This was a highlight of our 2 week trip. Wonderful drivers - we appreciated having female bikers to ride with as 2 young women. Food was delicious, the whole evening was so fun and also informative. Don’t hesitate - book!

If you’re a foodie.. do this! - This was absolutely a blast! I am super leery of eating from “street vendors”, and being assured these stops were not I signed on. My driver was Diep and she was super conscientious and a great “cook” as well. We had a small group and that made it even better. Keep up the good work!

One of the highlights of our trip. - I did this the very first night in HCMC and I recommend you do too. First off, it was so fun riding through the traffic with the experienced drivers, such a great experience, and safe!. Each guests has their own driver and mine was awesome and I liked him a lot. The restaurants they bring us to are very Vietnamese and it's great to taste the local flavor and dishes with the expertise of the tour hosts (they know a lot). You even get to make some of your own and try some foods you thought you might never try (Balut?!). Pace yourself along the way, don't eat too much in the first couple of places or you might not truly enjoy everything! Only thing I wish they done is introduce all the guests more formally before starting the tour. In any case, I would 100% do this! Have fun!

Exhilarating!! - What a great night!!!
We were picked up promptly by our lovely guides and whisked around HCMC on the back of their bikes. Our guides were friendly, extremely knowledgeable, funny and just so lovely! We visited places to eat in different Districts (1, 3, 5 & 10) that we would never have visited otherwise. It was so exhilarating on the bikes and I felt completely safe the whole evening. The food was amazing, delicious and plentiful and the whole evening was a highlight of our holiday!🛵🍲🍺😘
