Not a good experience. Ended up not going. I checked the night before to confirm with the organizer and they were very rude and contentious. They had explained that they are just seeing the reservation and was scrambling around the last minute to try to find a coordinator to accommodate me. TripAdvisor was honorable and refunded me for the experience. I recommend using TripAdvisor and Viator for bookings as they are honorable, but I don’t recommend going on this trip organized by this rude end unprofessional organizer for this particular excursion.
Door pick up by Paul and he take me to china town, we were spend almost 2 hours walking around some different market ( the motorbike market is insane ). Bun bo - beef noodles soup for the lunch and couple minutes at Saigon Square worth it ! recommended
Hanah was great..she took me around and didn't rush.
This is the best way to really experience HCM. Anne was a wonderful guide with insanely good motorbike skills. She tailored the tour to my agenda which was fantastic. Highly recommended!
Paul has a pretty warm welcome and give us some quick recap and chattin w us a little bit while waiting for the car. All the spot for the tour today just being awesome with Paul as a leader. Thank you so much Paul and recommended everyone join
Paul was our tour guide and did a wonderful job showing us the cities highlights. Paul also made sure we did not get run over by a scooter, bonus! We are so happy we booked this tour on our first day visiting The. city! Paul’s English is perfect!
Ask for Paul if you want to have a wonderful overview and tour of the city. From the moment he met us at our hotel to the end of the tour, Paul was warm, gracious, and an expert with explaining the history and traditions of the city.
happy was amazing. absolutely wonderful if youbhaveca higher rating like 10 i would give. communication 100 percent great asset to your business was great experience
This is among the lesser reviewed ones so I wasn’t quite sure at first, but reading the description it hit the brief for what we need, a fully customised walking tour with a focus on architecture and culture, so I gave it a go and I’m very glad I did! I was given a guide who was confident and fully prepared for the subjects as I requested, and my companion was very pleased with the places we went to and the conversations we had. Shout out to Asa, great pleasure to go on the tour with her, and also the team behind this operation who really delivered.
Booked the trip for myself and it was perfect! Queeny is a great guide and safe driver! Unfortunately the time went by really fast, as I'm sure that there are plenty of hidden gems to visit in HCMC.
