Great tour - Tony exceeded our expectations with an introduction to Ho Chi Minh City/Saigon. It's great to visit a new city, look around and know that you're one of the few tourists present. Great guides!

A great tour made better by our guide Tony - Tony has been the best guide of all tours we did. Moved slightly off the program and customized it to make it very relevant for us and much more interesting. Also shared a great deal of info for us to learn beyond the standard things you read or told by any guide. I’d recommend absolutely to book a tour here and asking for Tony to be your guide.

HCMC 101 - The tour Tony organized completely changed our vision of the city: lively, warm and authentic. He made everything easy and gave us amazing context, history and food lessons. We learnt more in a few hours with him about Vietnamese history and culture than in the previous days combined. Fantastic experience, do not miss!!

Great - Denny was great and knowledgeable! The driver was helpful too, picking me up outside of the pickup zone for a small fee.
