Other sides of Saigon - I had the pleasure to take the 1 pm Saigon Slum Tour with Duy. The tour was thorough, informative and eye opening. Duy always provided helpful context, anecdotes, and stories to see and better understand a side of Saigon I would not otherwise had known. Please note this tour may not be suitable for children and involves walking in hot weather. Thank you Duy!!

An unseen side of Saigon - This is a very good tour that gives you insights into the less glamorous areas of Saigon that you wouldn't go see by myself and an understanding of how people live their lives there. The guide was friendly and knowledgeable about the areas we visited together. He made sure that we visited each stop at a comfortable pace, and didn't make me feel rushed.

A one-of-a-kind experience in HCM - Solo travel to HCM, which I hadn’t done in a long time. This was a tour I knew I had to go on - how else would you get the opportunity to see slums in Vietnam? I was a little apprehensive, largely about safety, but there was no reason to be - Vincent took very good care of us (just 2 ladies on the tour), brought us to see interesting places, shared many stories, and fed us well.

Perfect city tour on motorcycle - Vincent was an amazing guide! I felt completely safe riding with him, and he would periodically check-in to make sure the speed is ok for me. Vincent speaks English perfectly and conversant in Cantonese. Agenda is true to the description and we visited multiple areas from the rich district to the slum, food streets to flower streets and historical importance sites. Very glad to have joined the tour

普段行くことのない地域へのツアー - HCMCの地域による経済格差を感じられるツアーになります。このツアーの名前にはスラムという文字が使われていますが、治安の悪い地域（強盗や暴力）という意味ではなく低所得者という意味合いが強く、安全なツアーになります。マフィアに会いにいくといったことはありません。
ガイドさんからは住人とは目を合わせるなと注意をされますが、それさえ守れば不安になることはありません。
ツアーはすべて英語で説明されました。
ガイドさんのHiếu さんはHCMCへの歴史に詳しく、また英語の発音がきれいで聞き取りやすいものでした。
このツアーはスクーターに２人乗りで回るものですので、雨には注意が必要です。
全体的には、HCMCの地域ごとの生活感を感じたいのであればおすすめです。
----
This tour will give you a sense of the economic disparity between the different areas of HCMC. The name of this tour uses the word "slum," but it does not refer to an unsafe area (robbery, violence) but rather to a low-income area. You will not meet the mafia.
The guide will warn you not to make eye contact with the residents, but as long as you follow this rule, you should not feel uneasy.
The entire tour was given in English.
Our guide, Hiếu, was very knowledgeable about the history of HCMC and his English pronunciation was beautiful and easy to understand.
The tour is a two-person scooter ride, so be careful in the rain.
Overall, I would recommend this tour if you want to get a sense of life in different areas of HCMC.
