This walk is for the urban explorer who yearns for authentic local experiences. Our original tour takes you out of the city centre and into lesser visited local neighbourhoods around Phu Nhuan where tourists rarely venture. You will get a chance to enjoy two wonderful vintage cafes, check out some street art, walk alongside railway tracks, wander through a lively local market and visit an historic communal house.
Our unique walking tours are small & personalised, created & curated by us to share our love of this vibrant, ever-evolving city with you.
To check out our other walking tours, go to our Upcoming Events calendar, or join our Very Ngon Homewares Facebook page for updates.

* The cafes that we start and end at for this walk require visitors to purchase a drink. They are both really interesting, independently owned cafes, full of vintage items from Vietnam collected over many years, so they are definitely places worth supporting and spending some time in.
