    Great tour of Hi Chi Minh back streets

    "We had a free day in HCM city, and had already done all the normal traditional tourist things. So we booked a tour of the districts, back streets, markets etc with Hieu. He was very knowledgeable and friendly, and spoke excellent English. We got a good background to Districtv10, and wandered through at a leisurely pace. We also went to the local markets, but didnt eat any toads. Highly recommended as a bit of an off the beaten track tour."

    Fantastic Walking Tour With Hieu

    "A spur of the moment booking which we thoroughly enjoyed. Hieu took us to places in Saigon which we would never have seen on our own, such as the communist apartment blocks and one of the oldest coffee houses. He provided us a great insight on life in the city and its history. Hieu has great spoken English, conversation with him is free flowing, he is easy going and good company. I would definitely be happy to recommend Hieu and this tour to my friends, and anyone else."

    The real McCoy of a guide🤩

    "Great experience with Thien again! We spent a great day in Saigon that I reviewed earlier and then on a second day we headed into the Cu Chi tunnels. What a unique and eye opening experience! Please don't miss it! Thien truly has an amazing knowledge and unique ability to share her culture and all the locals LOVE her as ❤️‍🩹 she took us to the tunnels that are a little farther and much less touristy so you can enjoy this unique experience without 50 people stepping on you while standing in the tunnel and ruining your picture!!! Me and my mom just loved her genuine approach. She made us feel like her family 🥰"

She was not only kind to us, but also the locals, meeting them eye to eye, joking witz them and making everyone comfortable. She has a unique talent for weaving personal stories together with places and history, all the while being entertaining and approachable. It was by far tge best tour we have done with withlocals so far! "

    Thien Is the Guide You Want in Saigon

    "We spent two great days exploring with Thien. She is incredibly friendly and generous in the way she shares her city. It is evident that she is well liked by everyone we encountered too. On our day in the Mekong Delta we met locals, made rice cakes, visited an old brick factory, stopped at a coconut candy factory, and were even welcomed with a traditional Thai performance. When she saw how enthusiastic we were abouthte food, Thien introduced us to her family and shared some traditional foods that are enjoyed during the New Year, which made the whole experience feel really personal and special. The next day we explored Ho Chi Minh City with her. She guided us through the landmarks and gave us some great insght to the history of Southern Vietnam. She showed us the wholesale market, the flower market (all those orchids!), the photography museum (so much history here), and the oldest coffee shop in Ho Chi Minh. Seeing it all through the eyes of someone who truly knows and loves the city made a big difference. It felt less like a tour and more like spending time with a local friend. We’d absolutely recommend exploring with her if you’re visiting Ho Chi Minh City."

    More than we expected!

    "4 Norwegians booked a private guided trip on in the Mekong delta with wonderful Xuan! We were so happy with both Xuan as a guide and the trip itself! A beautiful trip, away from all the tourists and a lot of interesting facts and stories from Xuan. We really reccomend him for other travellers. - Vegard "

    An incredible day in Ho Chi Min City

    "We had a fantastic day touring Chinatown in Ho Chi Min City with Thien. She is so full of energy, enthusiasm, and information. We learned much more than we had time to see. What a great way to get an education while having fun, eating, like local and sipping on fresh coconuts. Wherever Thien took us we were welcomed with open arms and warm hearts. If we ever get back to Saigon, we will surely be requesting another day with Thien. There is so much more that we want see, learn, and taste."

    Excellent local coffee journey with Huyen!

    "Huyen, was a great local host. She took us to several local coffee spots we never would’ve found and the coffee at all of them was excellent. Her storytelling, local and national history was also great. My wife and I highly recommend Huyen and would book her for the coffee tour and any other tour too. Thank you again and great job!"
