An Exceptional Tour with an Exceptional Guide

David_B, Jan 2026

Wonderful tour with an exceptional guide. Lucy was incredibly kind, generous with her time, and truly passionate about sharing her country and culture with us. She made the experience feel personal, thoughtful, and deeply meaningful, and we came away with a much richer understanding of the place and its people. Highly recommended!

A Pleasant Experience with Guide Lily

Horacio_L, Nov 2025

This was a good and enjoyable tour, and a nice way to explore parts of Saigon that most visitors don’t usually see. Our guide, Lily, was friendly and made a real effort to ensure we understood everything. The tour includes interesting spots, that allowed us to have a great look into everyday life in Saigon. Just keep in mind that this experience involves some walking, so it’s best suited for those who are comfortable moving around on foot. Overall, a pleasant and insightful way to see a more authentic side of the city.

Great guide, a glimse of local life and morning walk was oerfect before it go too hot

Really enjoyed the guides knowledge about Vietnam and the events which occurred during the Vietnam war. The market visit was great and we managed to purchase some fresh produce. Secret weapons cellar was fabulous

Great insight

A very informative experience walking the central city sights with Tyson. Lots of info we wouldn't have known if we had done it on our own. The coffee was amazing too 🙏👍🏻

Nice walk

It was a nice way to see some of the highlights of Ho Chi Min. Andrea did a good job explaining everything to us. Since it was just my wife and I we got her full attention.
