Historical sightseeing tour - Today we completed our 4th tour during our stay in Vietnam with AN tours . We booked this tour just yesterday whilst on one of their other tours . We did the historical sightseeing tour on motorcycles. We had an awesome tour yet again with our amazing guides Henry, An,Win & Steve. Our tour guides took us to places where there were no other tourists . They were extremely knowledgeable and friendly. They were safe on the bikes and ensured we were comfortable. Beautiful An even used a fan on us to keep us cool . It was such a personal tour and we learnt so much about Ho Chi Minh . I highly recommend this company for anyone looking for an authentic tour company . Thankyou AN tours for making our stay in Vietnam far exceed our expectations. We look forward to seeing you all again next visit

All Day Siagon City Tour. - You get to see all of the places of interest. Unfortunately, the Notre Dame Cathedral is under renovation, and the pink church was closed between 1200 and 1400, so we did not get in. The China Town Market is a great place to buy anything you need except electronics. The lunch on the tour is fantastic.

Great experience - A great city tour on the back of two motorcycles. My wife and I are seniors yet found the tour easy and safe under the expert and safety conscious guidance of Nguyen and Chris. They took us to five different sites and knew the history of each. Their English is very good and they obviously knew the sites well. At one point in China Town they brought us to a traditional coffee place and we enjoyed the coffee! Overall, a good experience with their expert riding skills delivering us safely back to our hotel. Both are friendly, great sense of humour, and I would strongly recommend them. Thanks guys for a great morning!

A fantastic tour - My family of three have just had a fantastic morning with our tour guide Chris and driver Mr Hai. Chris was so personable and knowledgeable, he provided so much fascinating history about HCMC and Vietnam generally. And Mr Hai was a very safe, patient and confident driver. We couldn’t have asked for a better tour! We’ll be highly recommending to any friends and family who travel to Vietnam.

Bravo to Chris and his team! - This tour is an exciting introduction to Ho Chi Minh City. We saw historic buildings from the French period through the 1960s and learned a great deal about the local forces that shaped the city over the years. The best part of the trip was the insight added by our engaging guides, Chris, Linh, Sha Vang, and Lucie. We learned a lot about everyday life in the city from them and had fun, too. We felt like we were scooting around with friends. They were all terrific drivers and we felt very safe amidst the chaos that is traffic in this city!
