Duong Dong Market Food Tour: Private Breakfast Morning in Phu Quoc

It runs 4 hours door to door, starting with 6:30 am hotel pickup. Most mornings you are back at your hotel by about half past ten, before the midday heat.

Because the market does. Stalls are trading from about four or five in the morning, the best of the catch has gone by mid-morning, and the noodle stalls islanders eat at serve breakfast, not lunch. If the start is too early for your group, tell us: a later pickup is possible, with a quieter market.

At your own hotel anywhere in Duong Dong, Long Beach (including Bai Truong and Sonasea) or Ong Lang, at no extra cost. From the north of the island (Bai Dai, Grand World, Ganh Dau, Cua Can) or the south (An Thoi, Sunset Town, Bai Khem, Bai Sao) we collect you earlier, by however long the drive takes, and a transfer surcharge shown at checkout applies once per booking. Your guide waits in the lobby for 20 minutes.

Yes. This is a sample morning and every part of it can be adjusted: add a stop, skip one, or spend longer in the market. Tell us before you book and we confirm the plan and an all-inclusive price in writing.

Yes. Your guide is a licensed Phu Quoc local who speaks fluent English, knows the stallholders by name, orders for you in Vietnamese and explains how and why islanders eat each dish as you go.

Yes, and the three menus share no dish. The sunset and seafood night runs in the evening and the Ham Ninh crab and Long Beach tour crosses to the east coast in the afternoon, so a morning and an evening tour fit comfortably into the same day. Each is booked on its own page.

For the whole group, from one to four guests: the figure shown for two people is the total for both, so the cost per head falls as the group grows. Children under 5 eat with you free and do not count towards the group size; from 5 a child counts as one guest. For five or more, message us on WhatsApp for a quote.

Two ways: pay the full price online by card, or pay a 30% deposit online and the rest in cash on the day of the tour, in US dollars or Vietnamese dong. We can also send a secure payment link on WhatsApp. The booking is confirmed once the online payment goes through, and your pickup time and guide’s name arrive in writing.

Free cancellation up to 3 days before departure for a full refund, and free rescheduling subject to availability. Within 3 days of departure, 30% of the tour price is charged because the car and guide are already committed.

Partly vegetarian as written: the fruit, coffee, palm-sugar cake and pepper already are, and with notice the two noodle bowls move to a vegetarian kitchen in Duong Dong; without notice we cannot make the whole morning vegetarian. Vegetarian and Jain guests, tell us when you book so your guide can plan; of our three tours this one suits you best. For Muslim guests we plan a Muslim-friendly morning: your guide checks each broth for pork bones and moves to a fish-only bowl where needed; we cannot promise halal-certified stalls. Both bowls contain fish or shellfish as written, so tell us about allergies and they are replaced. Market kitchens share pots and boards, so we cannot guarantee food free of allergen traces.

Your guide keeps the breakfast stops under a roof or awning when it rains, so a shower changes little. Rain does not stop the tours: you travel by private car and the tastings move under a roof. A wet evening does not change the price and there are no partial refunds, but you can also move the tour to another date free of charge. Clouds can hide the sunset at Dinh Cau or on Long Beach; that is not a reason for a refund. If an official storm or rough-weather warning affects Phu Quoc, we move your tour to another date, and if no date works for you, you get a full refund.

Sandals or shoes you do not mind getting wet in the market aisles, a hat, and a little cash if you want to buy fish sauce, pepper or fruit to take home. Nothing on the menu needs paying on the morning, and you bring the balance in cash only if you chose to pay that way.
