Your adventure begins

  1. 1
    Meet at Your Hotel – Let’s Begin!
    Your English-speaking local guide will meet you at your hotel lobby. After a warm welcome and quick safety briefing, hop on the back of our scooters — it’s time to uncover the soul of Saigon.
  2. 2
    Explore Saigon’s Soulful Side
    Stroll through backstreets and discover the quiet charm of the city — from the bustling, century-old Ban Co Market to the nostalgic 1960s Nguyen Thien Thuat apartment blocks. Taste local bites, meet everyday Saigonese, and feel the soulful rhythm of real urban life.
  3. 3
    Secret Weapon Bunker

    Explore a hidden arsenal once used by Saigon Commandos during the Tet Offensive of 1968.

  4. 4
    Coffee, Culture & Chinatown Charm

    Time to slow things down with a cup of Vietnamese coffee at a cozy local café — made the traditional way with a Phin filter.

    Then glide through Chinatown’s traditional medicine streets, where ancient herbal remedies have been traded for centuries. We’ll wrap this segment with a peaceful visit to the Thien Hau Temple, dedicated to the sea goddess and beloved by the local Chinese-Vietnamese community.

  5. 5
    Authentic Vietnamese Lunch
    Enjoy a flavorful Vietnamese lunch at a local favorite spot. Whether it’s Com Tam (broken rice), Bun Bo (beef noodle soup), or another classic, this meal will be the perfect ending to your morning adventure.
  6. 6
    Back to Your Hotel
    After a fulfilling journey through hidden corners and flavors of Saigon, we’ll drop you safely back at your hotel. Thanks for riding with us — and waking up with Saigon!

Ryan, Minh and Kelvin were excellent hosts. They made us feel safe and welcome. Their English were very good. Ryan made me overcome my fear of riding a motor bike. They are very knowledgeable about their history and patient answering our questions. They brought us to famous eating places for what Vietnam is famous for. Thank you for a wonderful experience. Ryan and Kelvin, good luck on your studies.We will both recommend you highly to our friends.

Binh and Hai were amazing. We had an amazing tour, tasting lots of great food and exploring parts of Ho Chi Minh that we would have never seen otherwise. Riding a scooter around town was lots of fun. Strongly recommend!

Hao and Thong, our guides were wonderful. Friendly, knowledgeable, excellent drivers and really lovely company. We loved the tour- we saw parts of this fabulous city we would never have found, we really enjoyed the flower market. Loved visiting China Town and the stunning temple. The food we had at lunch time was delicious and the absolute highlight was enjoying egg coffee in Little Hanoi coffee shop with Hao and Thong. We highly recommend them both .
