Experience City tours in the best of
Ho Chi Minh City with Withlocals

"My wife and I could not have wished for a better guide around the quite overwhelming Ho Chi Minh city. She took us around places of interest with wonderful knowledge and at a perfect pace. We enjoyed the local culture with some great food and drink and loved her passion and sense of humour. Highly impressed with the with local service and structure and glad we have two more tours booked in other locations next week. "

"I had A truly standout experience with Huyen! She was warm, intuitive, and completely open to shaping the day around my interests rather than following a fixed itinerary. From pacing to food to where we explored, everything felt personalized and effortless. We went well off the beaten path, and she even helped me discover stylish clothing pieces from local designers —an unexpected highlight. What set her apart was the depth she brought—sharing thoughtful insights on Vietnam’s history, politics, and modern culture in a way that felt engaging and natural. If you want a guide who is flexible, insightful, and makes the experience feel entirely your own, she’s exceptional."

"The tour was basically just wandering around a neighborhood with Hieu, stopping here and there to discuss history or try something. Simple. Was fascinating. Hieu kept it interesting, listened to our questions and was guided by our conversations. We saw different parts of a community, an old coffee shop, flower market, a park and a Cambodian food market. Would go as late as you can in the afternoon to avoid the heat! 100% recommend "

"Our day in Saigon with Huyen was amplified by her enthusiasm and genuine love for what she does. He profile picture underscores her personality perfectly. Always a smile, always a laugh... Great fun. As to the tour, we were taken to the hide away spots which you would never encounter unless you were a local. As an example, we ended up going on a local bus ride to the end of the line. This is where there is a large market where only locals go. Not only that, there is no need to barter because the prices are genuine for locals. Not a chance you'd find this unless you knew someone. All in all, a great time and explanation of Saigon in the time we had."

"Our tour was a highlight of our time in Ho Chi Minh City, thanks to our fantastic guide, Thien. Warm and Welcoming: Thien has an incredibly friendly and easygoing nature. From the start, it felt less like a formal tour and more like exploring the city with a knowledgeable friend. Deep Insight: Her knowledge of the city's history and culture is impressive. She shared fascinating stories that added so much depth to everything we saw. A True Local Perspective: What we appreciated most was her expertise in showing us the "real" Saigon. She led us through quiet alleys and local spots that we never would have stumbled upon ourselves, giving us a genuine glimpse into daily life here. If you’re looking for a relaxed, insightful way to see a more authentic side of Ho Chi Minh City, we highly recommend spending a few hours with Thien. Thank you for a memorable day!"

"I had such a great day with Huyen in Ho Chi Minh. despite the fact that I only had one day to spend the city Huyen succeeded in making me have a good feel of Saigon both through local architecture, vibe of the city, key facts and great food! Do not hesitate to go wander around with her, she will know how to tell you a story and give you interesting fact about this wonderful city! Thank you so much for that day and being my friend for one day in Saigon!"

"I have been on walking tours twice with Thien now. She is great company, reliable and takes care of you. Couldn’t ask for a better guide in Saigon. Thanks!"

"Thien gave me a good personal experiece and showed me areas in Saigon based on my interrest and wishes. Thien was very open and honest about the history of Saigon."

"Thien was great! We learned so much about the city and the people, the life of the locals in the american apartement, in the flower market and chinatown. She showed us the best sugarcane juice in town. We visited two buddhust temples. It was 3 hours well spent! She was very entertaining and flexible! thank you "

"Jecky’s tour in Ho Chi Minh City was fantastic. We explored local shops and neighbourhoods and savoured a delicious coffee at an 80-year-old coffee brewery. We also enjoyed a wonderful Vietnamese lunch. Jecky is a highly-awarded photographer and he’s friendly, reliable and great at time management. He’s also knowledgeable about food and will introduce you to typical Asian fruits and dishes during the tour. It was a perfect day!"
