I was extremely fortunate to have a 1-to-1 tour with Thomas as my guide who was excellent throughout. The tour itself was great giving me the chance to explore some new unknown spots and try new dishes which had previously gone under the radar. As for Thomas, he demonstrated his experience and knowledge for delivering the tour while also being personable throughout; with his ease at making conversation about a range of topics both related and unrelated to the stops. I would recommend the tour to anyone looking for something a bit different to some of the other tours advertised or alternatively if you love to try local, authentic food; and plenty of it!

Thank you Nhu and friends for the wonderful tour around ho chi minh. Everyone was so friendly, energetic and they brought us to places that we would never have found as a tourist. The local market and flower street was a nice refreshing change of pace with the visit to the housing area in district 3 being the highlight of the tour. Seeing where the locals lived and experiencing their community, it was really eye opening. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who wants to see the non tourist side of Ho Chi Minh

We had a great time with Thang and Khai. It is much better than usual guided tours because it was an exchange with two great local guys. They drive very well and carefully.
