Best tour we have ever done
So much fun. Food was amazing, drivers were so friendly and fun to be with. Very informative and fantastic experience. Highly recommend it. Been to a lot of places around the world doing different tours and this would have to be the best night time food tour ever. So much fun

Wonderful day with SST travel
Had a wonderful day visiting sites out of Ho Chi Minh. The bus was luxurious and had more than ample space with extremely comfortable seats. The guide was excellent and made sure we didn’t have to wait at any of the attractions. I highly recommend this tour.

We made this trip with our well-named guide 'big handsome david', he will make you spend an unforgettable moment by exploring the different places with his humor and his relevant explanations about the history, culture and heritage of Vietnam. highly recommended!

Touristy but worthwhile
Our guide Ms Monie was delightful, providing us with lots of information about life in the country and in the delta in particular. Her knowledge was awesome and her humour infectious which added to the experience. She paced the tour well and we never felt in a rush.
There were lots of food samples to try and lunch was amazing, too much in fact for 6 people.
Designed for tourists but all in all an interesting and fun day out. Good value for what was delivered.

Tunnels of Cu Chi Private Tour
Our Guide (Toan) was very knowledgeable and helpful; he spoke great English and was the perfect host and guide. both my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the excursion and would highly recommend this tour. The pickup and drop off were on time and the vehicle was very comfortable with a very safe driver. Thanks, Toan for a very insightful and enjoyable tour.

An experience worth...
An experience worth experiencing on a tour.
Easy from start to finish. Don’t be afraid to talk to the guide. They are very nice and knowledgeable. Professional service and really adds control, context, and depth to an otherwise already great historical museum. Dress for warm weather and maybe pack some wet towels so you are more comfortable during the tour.

Long day but great experience!!
This is a wonderful experience but it is a very long day. Even with normal traffic you are about 11 hours.
That being said, the tunnels are very educational but 2.5 hours outside the city.
Next, we were 2 hour drive to the Mekong River. We also had a nice Cultural experience with several local communities on an island in the Mekong River.
I would recommend this tour but be prepared for a long day. Our guide Emily was excellent!!

Great experience
It was a unique experience in an old US army jeep, covering some of Saigon’s main attractions. There’s quite a bit of climbing in and out and the jeep is exposed to the elements but it was interesting and a great introduction to Ho Chi Minh. Our guide Hoa was friendly and knowledgeable.

Awesome Tour!
Anna was wonderful. We had a great time eating, laughing and talking about some history of Ho Chi Minh. We had some great dishes that we would not have had the opportunity to try if we didn’t do the food tour. Highly recommended doing this while you are here.

Well organized, personal tour.
Great personal VIP experience. We booked the trip the day before and were contacted by the tour guide on WhatsApp the evening before to confirm pick up time and place, and what to take. Hannah was a very good tour guide and looked after us well. Lunch was included which to our surprise was a large banquet for two at a private table. It was a very enjoyable day.

A must-do Ho Chi Minh City experience for people of any age.
Our Motorbike drivers were amazing. My Driver, Ruby, was a delight. She made me (age 77) feel at ease as she maneuvered the streets of the city with bikes, cars, vans, busses, etc going this way and that with ease. She never once made me feel unsafe. The stops that we made as a group were perfect. The Burning Monk monument was something we would have missed on our trip without these guides. Our treats in the market were delicious. Anthony, who was my husband's driver, was a perfect city guide as well as driver. He answered all questions. All of the guides spoke excellent English which made us feel at ease. The traffic in Ho Chi Minh city is truly organized chaos, but even though we were right in the middle of it, our experience was spectacular and truly a highlight of our Southeast Asia trip. Thank you Ruby, Anthony, and our other two drivers for this amazing and fun way to see the city.
