Highly recommend walking tour - Joseph was an amazing tour guide and looked after us so well! He was very knowledgeable and the tour was a good pace with comfort stops and he always tried to find shady spots to protect us from the heat and sun. Great to meet you Joseph! Thankyou!

Wonderful - The free walking tour was very well organized. Showed the main sight seeings of Saigon and some hidden gems which we wouldn’t have found on our own. Joseph was a wonderful guide, very funny, with rich knowledge about history and great sense of humor. We really enjoyed the trip and highly recommend it.

A pleasant and insightful tour experience with Thang - The tour with Thang was enjoyable and informative. After a brief introduction to the history of Vietnam, he took us exactly to the places described in the tour description, providing useful information and answering all our questions. He is a very pleasant person, and it was clear that he was genuinely interested in a mutual exchange, also about our respective countries. Punctual and easygoing, highly recommended!

Outstanding authentic and genuine tour 10 stars 🤩 - This tour was outstanding, Joseph the tour guide was funny informative and knowledgeable. He made the tour very interesting and provided regular toilet breaks and supplied the cold water as we needed it. The places he took us I would have never visited on my own. We particularly enjoyed the original cafe apartment with the speak easy and cat cafe among others. Also the Cantonese market area and seeing where they live was interesting. Joseph also provided a lovely banana snack which was delicious. I would highly recommend Joseph as a tour guide he is attentive and always checks in on the group giving just enough time to explore areas.

Nice walk, scam price - The guide was nice and the walk also very cool. However, this is not a tip tour!! They ask for a minimum of 15$ per person!! I have made many walking tours while travelling. This is a scam regarding the payment.
