enjoy like a local

I joined this tour because I wanted to feel local on my first trip to Vietnam. Our tour guides, Mallorie, had a great time showing us around. It was great to hear that he had suddenly asked to try durian. For first-time riders in Ho Chi Minh City, this bike tour is safer than regular bikes.

Explore local back alleys

kalyn showed me around. It was very nice to have detailed and accurate explanations. It was a half-day tour that I fully enjoyed, touching on the differences in culture and environment between Vietnam and Japan. We enjoyed stopping by cafes while strolling around the local city. Historic apartments are a rare spot not found in tourist information

Discovering HCMC by scooter was worth it with these guides!

Wonderful experience. It was the highlight of our vacation to Ho Chi Minh to cover so many interesting aspects of the city by scooter. Vincent, Valerie and Duc were so friendly and engaging. Totally worth going for.
