For nearly half a century, the Nguyen Thien Thuat apartment buildings have stood as a testament to time. Embracing their familiar abodes, the residents who call these buildings home share a deep-rooted attachment to their living spaces. In fact, a number of neighbors have formed enduring bonds that date back to the era of the Vietnam War.
Established in the 1980s, Ho Thi Ky stands tall as the largest flower market in Ho Chi Minh City, serving as the primary source of flowers not only for the city itself but also for various provinces in the southern region of Vietnam. This remarkable marketplace holds a treasured quality, preserving the unique essence of the old Saigon in a way that is seldom found elsewhere.

The only downside is you’re going to have plenty of delicious food that you likely won’t be able to finish 😂 Our guides Ken and Jo were very informative and safe drivers. It felt like we were hanging out with friends. Would definitely recommend to my friends! 10000/10
What a brilliant night of fun and food. The team who looked after us were so enthusiastic and professional from start to finish.Had great food all the way through and special thanks to Keley who made sure everyone had a great time with her infectious humour and tales of life in vietnam. Big big thank you to Paul who drove me around town safely and gave me some great tips along the way. I would highly recommend this tour if you visit ho chi minh
The whole experience was excellent. My driver’s name was Happy, she was very friendly and brought me to lots of great food spots. It was great to hangout with other tourists from different parts of the world and bond over great food. The other guides on the tour were also very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed as we ate. Especially Tan. The beef moddle stew was the best thing I’ve eaten in Vietnam so far. I didnt have enough cash on me for a proper tip, and I felt they really deserved one, so if you’re going on the trip and are a tipping kind of person don’t forget to check you’ve the right amount with you like I did.
Great way to savor the many different authentic Vietnamese foods & experiencing the sights, sounds & smells of Saigon. Our guide, Kelly Tran, was so knowledgeable & very professional. Truly enjoyed this trip. Stuffed to the max!!!
We had a wonderful trip with kris and Lexi a week or so ago and can definitely recommend. The traffic in Saigon is crazy so I was a bit nervous about being on a Vespa but after 10-15 mins or so I really relaxed into it. Lexi was a very safe and lovely driver and was telling me info as we zoomed around the city. We made a number of stops around the city taking in areas we would never have gone to and dishes we would never have ordered. A really highlight of our trip to Ho Chi Minh and I would recommend this to anyone visiting the city.
Superb - Great family fun. Riders/Guides were very safe in the controlled chaos of the HCM traffic and took us to different districts and food outlets that you simply couldn't walk between. Our guides/riders and all around legends were - Kelly, Jack, Daniel & Paul Loved this experience
Superb - Great fun for the evening. Felt very safe in the controlled chaos of the traffic all night and had a range of food experiences in different districts that you simply couldn't walk between. Our guides/riders and all around legends were - Kelly, Jack, Daniel & Paul Highly recommended
Kris was a fantastic host. He arrived at my hotel with ample time to formally meet and explain the evenings activities. He ensured I understood safety requirements for the motor bike and also for the rainy weather conditions. His knowledge of the local districts and the history helped make the tour even more interesting than I imagined. Warning- there’s so much food! Don’t eat lunch when you plan this or you’ll be stuffed!
Great way to explore the food districts of HCMC. Kris our guide was brilliant. His knowledge of the food and people were second to none. He kept us safe crossing streets and kept our bellies full. Ask him about his pet roster, that’s a story!
We had a fantastic time and so much fun. Jack, Liam and Happy are great people. It felt like going out with friends. The motorbike rides were fantastic we felt so safe. We tried food we otherwise would never have the confidence to try, so very tasty. We are so full and don't need to eat again today. Thank you guys we will definitely recommend your service. Top marks on all levels !!!!
