Overview
Although the city is chaotic with endless slow-moving traffic, the hustle and bustle of the city do not affect the unique friendliness of the people. An easy greeting of hello in Vietnamese, "Xin Chao", is sufficient to taste the local hospitality. Forget about shopping and must-see attractions for a while. Let me show you the real Saigon. - The tour is private and flexible so there are only you and your family on tour. - Our tour mostly focuses on understanding locals' way of life, culture, history and cuisine so we will visit different aspects of the city (local wet market, CIA building, stilt house areas and the likes). - There are no shopping and tourist traps during the tour. - All guides are licensed, knowledgeable, professional and enthusiastic.
