We did our half-day tour which covered the Presidential Palace, Notre Dame basilica (which was unfortunately covered over with renovations), and the old post office building. Linh, our guide, was a delight, knowledgable and helpful and spoke excellent English. She is an excellent representative for the organization. (She also had a terrific recommendation for a Saigon coconut milk coffee!) We were very pleased to be able to help Linh with her already strong English language skills and find and support this not-for-profit organization with a donation.

My husband and I enjoyed our city walking tour with Tuyet on 29th March in HCMC. Tuyet speaks good English so we had no issue understanding her. She answered our questions with her best ability and if she didn't know the answer she would say she doesn't know. It was good to see that the student guides are keen to continuous improve the guide material for any additional information they learn herself during the tour. For example, as my husband is an electrical engineer, he was able to explain thoroughly how the telecommunication machines work in the bunker at the Independence Place. Tuyet immediately said she would add this info to the guide material so all other student guides would be able to use for future tours. We learned a few things about Vietnamese culture and Saigon. Thank you.
