Brilliant few hours walking and exploring Saigon, book it!!

Booked this trip so that I could see and find out more about Saigon and the different districts. Ky was my guide, I happened to be the only person booked in. He was a fantastic host, very informative and good fun, guiding me round the different districts explaining about the cultures and historical facts. Stopped for herbal tea, coffee, rice wine and coconut juice on the walk round. Would recommend this to anyone visiting the city as part of a group or solo. Thank you Ky!

Authentic Southern Vietnam: A Must!

Hoang, our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable, friendly with a great sense of humour. The 3 districts visited were an excellent insight into the real Vietnamese culture, as well as gaining a further understanding about the war & reunification of Vietnam. Highly recommend this tour & Hoang for those seeking an authentic cultural dive into southern Vietnam!

Great tour worth doing

This was a great tour and readily 5 stars for me. Ky was a wonderful guide who was generous with his time and information and cared about delivering a very enjoyable tour experience, all provided using his excellent English. We visited different parts of interest in three suburbs, such as markets, temples, a cafe, popular businesses, a museum and the narrow winding streets of interest where people live and work every day. Ky supported his tour using laminated A4 documents to provide useful information. It left me feeling I had a much better introduction to the city and how people live and work. This tour proved to be one of the better experiences I had during my several weeks as a tourist in Vietnam. Many thanks Ky!

Saigon by feet

Had the best time on this walking trip around parts of Saigon we would never have found ourselves. Ky was an excellent guide, informative and fun. The walking pace was good, with rest and refreshment stops included.

The tour was excellent!! ...

The tour was excellent!! Kyle was my guide, and he did a great job of providing information about the city and the different districts. Kyle took me to a cafe to have Vietnamese coffee and tea.(this cafe was an excellent choice. Nice local cafe away, with excellent service) Another huge standout for me, was the drive-thru market. This tour was great, and if I had more time, I would do it again. Thanks Kyle!!
