Awesome guide Linh and great tour! - Great guide and tour! Linh was our guide and she was great. We were picked up at the port for our day. They were on time and the vehicle was very clean and comfortable. The drive from the port is fairly long but Linh was very chatty and informative about Vietnam, the history and culture. We were able to ask her a lot about the country and had some great conversations. We made a number of stops in the city and enjoyed a traditional lunch and an interesting restaurant. Due to the long distance from the port to the city we had to head back a bit earlier than we would have liked but the traffic is thick. Our guide and driver were very conscious of our timing to get back to the cruise ship so we didn't miss it. I would definitely hire them again, they were very professional and engaging. Thanks for a great day Linh!!!

Lee is Amazing! - Family of 4. Le’s tour scores top marks on all the boxes. Informative, entertaining and extremely well planned logistics. We had our own comfortable spacious van. All of our transport - boats, vehicles, horse cart - were private, not shared. Le also knows how to navigate to avoid crowds as much as possible. He goes where the crowds are least and works against, around, behind or ahead of the masses while not skipping any sites. Highly recommend.

Great tour for those with limited time. - Mr. Henry was responsive and easy to work with to schedule and book. The day tour of the Chu Ci tunnels followed by a City tour was exactly what I was looking for with only one day in Ho Chi Minh/Saigon. Our guide, Mr. Lee, was passionate and knowledgeable. He kept the tempo appropriate for a family with teenagers and ensured we covered everything we wanted to see. Highly recommend this tour.

Fantastic Two Day Tour of Mekong Delta, Saigon and Cuchi Tunnels - My family spent two days with Lee in February, touring both the Saigon region, as well as the Mekong Delta and Cuchi. These two days were the highlight of our trip, as Lee was a fantastic tour guide. He took us to incredibly interesting places, in a nice, air conditioned van. He was knowledgable and engaging, providng unique commentary ane expert narratives as we went along. Everything was lined up perfect, be it lunch or driver. I also want to thank Lee for being so flexible and moving our date when our cruise got cancelled. I highly, higly recommend Lee!!!
