Wow! This might be the highlight of our trip throughout Asia! My wife was very nervous about doing this tour, but was willing to try it. The tour guides were very careful and helpful when riding us through the city to the tour stops. Perhaps more importantly the food stops all had outstanding for us to try and were probably some of the best food we had in our Asia trip. Our guides walked us through all of the history and cultural significance of the food. Just an incredible experience that we would highly recommend anyone should try.

Coriander convert!

Mary_M, Apr 2024

Thank you Castle! You are the future of the tour industry and that is amazing because you are so knowledgeable and respectful of history and maintain traditions and make sure to know the detail so that travellers like me are so well informed. This is the first tour I’ve taken on my own and it will be etched on my mind as a core memory. The food, the lessons, the conversations, thank you Castle. I think I even like coriander now! Good luck with everything. The one tip I can give - put sunscreen on 😊

Great tour!

Jocelyn_W, Apr 2024

What a great tour! Yudan tailored the tour to include stops for more food for us and showed us all around the city. Such a fun and memorable to see Ho Chi Minh.

Amazing

Natasa_M, Mar 2024

Enjoyed my tour with Thanh! Got to see the city and try the local food and the best Vietnamese coffee 🥰 Thanh gave me a history lesson which I loved. Also, he is very careful and skilled driver and his English is perfect!

Excelllent tour

The tour guide was very good and prompt in arrival. We scootered around Saigon. We didn’t get to go many restaurants but covered a lot on the history of saigon.

Helpful and informative guide

SzeMeng_S, Jan 2024

The crew were knowledgeable and fun. They food was awesome and they gave a great insight into the history of Saigon/Ho Chi Minh. Nice to be off the traditional tourist route.

The coolest trip ever!

Shelley_A, Aug 2023

Vivian was the most amazing guide, fun, super knowledgeable and spoke excellent English! She was also a very good scooter driver 😄 This tour is very worthwhile and was my standout activity in Ho Chi Minh.

Fantastic Tour and Brilliant Guides... Must Do in HCM City !

Chamila_H, Aug 2023

HCM sightseeing and food tour by scooter was one of the highlights of our visit. Myself and my sister enjoyed it very much. It was fun and also very informative and insightful - provided a wonderful overview of this great city, history, culture, food and people's daily lives. Our guides Kaine and Ai were brilliant guides and excellent drivers. Huge thanks to them and this tour is highly recommended :)

Amazing and Informative

Sara_B, Feb 2023

The ba Minh sandwich was so good as well as the Vietnamese pancake…all the food was so tasty and delicious!! We loved experiencing the scooter bikes as well…they were a blast!! I highly recommend this tour!!

A must do

Valerie_G, Jan 2023

From start to finish it was great. We would never have had the time or Know how to see such much in a few hours and enjoy such great food at the same time. The pancake and coffee was delicious

Get ready to ride!

Scott_T, Jan 2023

The scooter ride is an e-ticket Disney experience! The girls were expert drivers in a very challenging environment. Their knowledge of VN history and explanation of landmarks was very informative. We tasted local dishes and had the best Pho ever! I highly recommend this tour. However, not for the faint hearted!

Extremely satisfied!

Jey_E, Nov 2022

My tour guide, Asa, is absolutely one of the most coolest, knowledgeable, welcoming people I've met in VietNam. I highly recommend doing this tour because she was very accommodating, patient, and explained, in-depth, the history and/or significance in the sites we visited. She's also a great driver, so I felt safe while riding with her, even though I haven't used a bike in many years. I'm sure this tour will provide you with memorable experiences.

Absolutely fantastic! A great start to visiting Vietnam

danielle_h, Oct 2022

I can’t recommend this tour enough, our guides were amazing! Greatly passionate about their culture and home. We were met at our hotel reception and were asked if we had eaten lunch. We replied no, so our tour started with a visit to the beef noodle shop. We learnt about the history of Vietnam, visited several amazing food places, the flower market and the 1000 Buddha Pagoda. The guides were incredibly attentive, sharing information and tips throughout. The tour was well paced and gave us a great start to our holiday in Vietnam.

Interesting and very good tour!

Regner_J, Jan 2020

With my driver Tom I had a wonderful tour around in HohChiMinhCity - he was a very good driver in the massive trafic - interesting and safe! Also all the stops we made for sigthseeing were good and he gave a good explanation about everything. And the cofeebar and local restaurant were very interesting - and not at least the chinese temple. I can absolutely recommend a tour like this!’

We had an amazing experience!

RosannaMC, Nov 2019

This was the first thing we did when we arrived in Vietnam and it ended up being one of the most memorable experiences of the whole trip! Navie and Nga were the absolute sweetest, most knowledgeable, fun guides we could have hoped for! They showed us such an incredible time and my husband and I felt like we were with friends. We learned, laughed, ate so much good food, and saw Saigon through the eyes and scooters of two locals. I cannot recommend this tour enough. You will not regret it!! Thank you Navie and Nga for the beautiful memories ❤️

AWESOME!!

Katherine_I, Nov 2019

So glad I did this. Do NOT come to Ho Chi Minh without having this experience :D. Food was delicious and guides were amazing.
