Nice Tour
I joined the tour with my brother. The tour brought me several hidden local places that a traveler cannot find easily. I have lived in HCMC for a year though, I didn't know several places. Tour guides are very flexible and good English speakers. Unfortunately, it was rainy so that I needed to wear the raincoat and my shoes and clothe was a mess after the tour. Next time, I would like to join with a sunny day.

A slightly different insight
The moped tour I can only recommend to everyone! You get insights into the city that you would never have on your own. Riding on a scooter in the middle of Saigon’s crazy traffic, see how Saigons live in the city’s oldest house, stroll through the flower market and finally enjoy the atmosphere on the Saigon River with a view of the skyline. I would always opt for the Tour and caught a particularly nice and striving rider with Lenna 😁
