Saigon food tours and city tours led by women

We are the first all-female motorbike tour company in Vietnam, offering the most unique and highest ranked tours in Vietnam since 2010. Our “XO Foodie” tour is the original Vietnam street food tour and was voted one of the top 9 food tours in the world by Forbes, one of the 10 best city tours by USA Today, the best food tour in Vietnam by Food & Wine, and one of the top things to do in Ho Chi Minh City by the New York Times! We are also proud to have provided thousands of women the opportunity to work in the Vietnamese tourism industry.

Whether you are interested in food, culture, or sightseeing, book one of our acclaimed Vietnam tours led by women and see why over 100,000 guests have chosen XO Tours to provide them with their best memories in Vietnam!

Due to our success, XO Tours is the most copied tour operator in Vietnam. Be aware that 95% of the motorbike tour providers in Vietnam are operating illegally without a tour operator licence. If you book with another scooter tour and get into an accident, most likely no insurance policy will cover you, even if the provider says they offer insurance.

Unlike the copycats, the tours that XO offers cannot be booked on TripAdvisor, Viator, Airbnb, Klook or any other online travel agent. Our unique tours are entirely exclusive and can only be booked via our official website. Accept no substitutes! Book your scooter tour with the best and safest tour operator in Vietnam.

We believe that in order to see, smell and experience the real Vietnam, you must do it from the back of a motorbike, not inside a car or bus!

All questions answered

We offer adventure tours led by women on the back of motorbikes in Ho Chi Minh City.

  1. The Sights of Saigon: a fun sightseeing tour of both old and new Saigon, offering a good mixture of major attractions and lesser-known sites.
  2. Saigon by Night: this exhilarating scooter tour is one of the most fun things to do in Saigon at night, combining delicious street food with a tour through 4 unique districts.
  3. The XO Foodie: a gastronomic adventure that will both excite you and fill up your belly! You will be able to eat and drink without limitation (yes, unlimited servings of food and beer!). This is our most popular tour of Saigon food and the most acclaimed Saigon food tour in Vietnam!
  4. Saigon Through the Lens: a photography tour of the city’s hidden corners with our resident photography expert [confirm: one part of the current site says three tours are offered, another lists four].

Because we believe that Vietnamese women are the safest drivers in the country! Not only that, we feel that the women in Vietnam are some of the hardest working but yet most underappreciated in the world!

Most of the street vendors in Vietnam are women and many of these women work from 4 am until midnight every single day! Women are involved in all aspects of Vietnamese life, from doing the daily shopping at the markets, to running the household and even the family business! They are also responsible for serving up most of the delicious Vietnamese food found in the country!

In our opinion, the best way to learn about Vietnamese life is to talk to a Vietnamese woman!

1. XO Tours focus on Vietnamese people, the culture and the amazing Vietnamese food! Each of our tours is designed to offer you a peek into the living, working and eating habits of locals. These are meant to be immersive, so not only will you get to see parts of the city most tourists do not get to see, you will often find yourselves sitting among the locals and eating where only locals do!

2. We care about your safety! Of the many tours in Saigon, we are the only one to include accident insurance with all our tours! When you book with us, you are automatically covered for up to $10,000 per person, per tour, for any injuries that you sustain while riding on our motorbikes.

3. Our employees are highly trained. All our employees work full time and are fully focused on providing the best service. Unlike other tour operators, we do not hire student drivers. To us, it is not worth risking your safety to save a few dollars. Our guides also have the ability to communicate fluently in English, can explain how to make all the dishes you eat, and have a high understanding of Vietnamese food!

4. We go the extra distance to make your tours memorable! We take pictures of the entire journey and email them to you later for no extra cost! For a small additional fee, we also offer high definition video cameras which we can use to film and edit a fun memento of your adventure in Vietnam!
