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!

Hải was a brilliant tour guide! I was travelling solo so had a 1:1 tour with him and it felt like spending the morning with a friend. He’s very knowledgeable, kind, patient, a great photographer and it was wonderful learning from him. We had delicious food, delicious drinks, and visited some really amazing sights that I simply wouldn’t have gone to or eaten had I not been on the tour. I loved every moment - thank you!!

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 .
