Extraordinary Experience - I have a business guest to visit my company for half day and the 2nd half of day will be free. I tried to look for some good activity/ experience so that my business guests will have pleasure time. It is my luckiness to find this fantastic tour. The day, our group is with 12 people, the tour conducted greatly by three nice girls with good English and outgoing characteristics. We had great time with a very unique local coffee shop- opened 80 years ago; the most breakthrough event was a last part of the tour, we went to art studio, tried good tea and traditional cake & remarkable outstanding local musical performance. The last music show was really a tipping point for this tour's success. My customer was really happy and gave good feedback. One thing I think the tour need to improve is: the represented picture of tour (The lady is wearing ao dai and serving tea) is so nice, that attract the audience's attention; but, we dont see her or someone serving tea in aodai during the tour; I think it is better if the tour can arrange someone doing this tea serving with Ao dai. It could be great.

Highlight of my Saigon trip - I booked this tour being my first time in HCM, I thought it was a joined tour but to my surprise it was a private tour and I was picked up from my hotel. My tour guide An was superb! She is very knowledgeable with coffee and tea. Never a dull moment. Tour includes, a face to face demo using an old traditional way of making vietnamese coffee at the oldest coffee shop in HCM. The coffee class for making phin coffee was amazing too, they also taught me how to make coconut coffee, egg coffee. Lastly the tea session was beyond I imagined it to be. I was literally full from all the tea served by Thanh the tea master, she is so passionate about the tea culture and did a tea 101 and learned so much even for a short period of time. And oh, Thanh takes great photo too! Will def recommend to someone who wants to know learn about coffee and tea culture of Saigon, taking this tour is a great start to learn more about the culture of Saigon.

(Not Just) For Coffee and Tea Lovers - Recommended this tour to all our family and friends! It’s best to start your vacation in Vietnam with this tour to really experience their coffee and tea culture in the most authentic way. We really enjoyed the positive vibe that this tour brings from start to finish. The nice dinner (we took the afternoon session) with An and Tham at the end of the tour was the perfect finale. It felt like hanging out with good friends, rather than local tour guides.

Coffee and Tea Culture = Vietnamese Culture - What an enriching and caffeinating experience learning about the Vietnamese culture of coffee and tea. Our guides were really passionate about every aspect. An and Katie helped us live in the present, by teaching us about the past.

A different kind of tour - Great experience. The locations of the tour were well chosen and the logistics ran smoothly. The two coffee places were very different and the staff was knowledgeable and friendly. The vegan lunch was delicious! Our tour guide helped translate when necessary and share about Vietnam's coffee culture.

Experience Saigon Culture thru their famous Phin Coffee and Tea. - I booked this Coffee and Tea tour and to my surprise, I was picked up at the hotel by a car with An, my tour guide, Hung, my private photographer, and of course, the driver. I was greeted with the traditional scarf around my neck. Then we went to the oldest caphe' in Saigon and were shown how the traditional Vietnamese phin coffee was made. That was quite a treat! Then we went to the Tea place and were shown the tea ceremony.. interesting! From there we went to the coffee place where I finally learned how to make the Vietnamese phin coffee. An and Hung were the best team to show me around Saigon. They even waited with me till my next tour guide picked me up with a motorbike. I am so happy with their tour company, WEAW, and the service they rendered. I highly recommend WEAW via Tripadvisor, to tourists looking for a reliable company to book their tours in Saigon. I hope you get my tour guide, An, and Hung, my photographer, with the tour you book with Tripadvisor and WEAW. They are the best! 💕

Coffee tea experience - Highly recommended! The tour guide spoke excellent English and it is a private tour so it’s personal and warm. You can ask any questions and learn so much more. The local coffee scene is vibrant and the baristas are passionate about their craft. The tea ceremony is gracious whilst simple and we are encouraged to brew the tea too. The veg lunch is also a good end to the half day tour so you can try healthy cuisine . Love it! Time well spent
