Experience the best of
Ho Chi Minh City with Withlocals

"Hieu hit all the highlights for me markets / local life / food and importantly the architecture that defines the differing eras of Saigon’s recent hitory. Great tour guide "

"Taking Thien’s photography tour felt like walking and chatting with a good friend. She has a warm, easygoing style that made the experience both comfortable and inspiring. We explored hidden gems across four different districts, and she shared rich historical context along the way that really brought the city to life. Her passion for storytelling and eye for beautiful, lesser-known spots made the tour unforgettable. I had an amazing time and would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone wanting to see Ho Chi Minh City, commonly known as Saigon to the locals, through a more authentic and artistic lens. "

"Spent a lovely 3 hours with Huyen, she was a delight. It was just about the right length of time in the heat. Stopped for delicious juice half way round. Learnt plenty of history, especially outside the Reunification Palace. Saw some beautiful little streets, the book market is a must see where every store has its own tree growing in it! Ended up at the War Museum which is an interesting, if sobering, place. Well worth the time."

"Huyen was a lot of fun. She was able to provide history and a great look at Saigon, too. I really enjoyed the trip"

"We enjoyed such a great trip to the Mekong with Thien. She was such a wonderful host - bright, vibrant and so entertaining. We felt really looked after the whole trip and the places we visited were authentic and definitely off the regular tourist track. The highlight was visiting the home of two lovely ladies, who showed us how to make sweet rice paper rolls. If you are looking to see a small slice of real Mekong Delta life - this is the trip for you. Thank you Thien"

"We went on a walking food tour of Ho Chi Minh City with Spring. Can't say enough good things. She is knowledgeable, friendly, cheerful. We felt a real connection. It was clearly more than just a job for her. Two of us needed vegetarian food, and she knew just where to go--places we'd never have found on our own. We miss her. Hieu took us on a historical-architectural walking tour. He's extremely knowledgeable, outgoing, flexible. We passed an optician's store that was inhabited by a number of cats, so our tour stopped to visit the cats. Hieu helped us understand some of the painful history of the North-South-American war. Both led us through some of the narrow alleys of Ho Chi Minh City, bringing us to a part of the city we'd never otherwise see--a whole world whose existence we'd never expect."

"Wind was an amazing guide, willing to answer any question and so easy to talk to. We were traveling with our 12 and 14 year olds, and she helped make sure they had a great time too."

"I booked my guided tour in the morning for a 10am meet. I was lucky to have Spring as my guide. I was able to personalise to what I wanted to see and do. Spring is super friendly, knowledgeable, interesting, funny and a great guide. "

"huyen is proudly very knowledgeable of vietnam’s history, best places for any particular cuisine and is super energetic! prior to our meeting, she even gave me tips to avoid common scams which actually proved useful. our tour was customized based on what i was looking to experience and she checked in with me to ensure i was pleased with how the tour was going, which i was. i would totally recommend her and would definitely utilize her should i return."
