Great tour! - This tour is great! Daniel, my guide, is very knowledgeable and took me to great spots. Unfortunately, it was pouring but even so, he was ready with a poncho and continuously checked that I was okay to continue on the tour. I would recommend! Great way to see Ho Chi Minh City!

The REAL day to day Saigon and a look into Buddhism - This tour was perfect for me because I wanted to see the "real" Vietnam, meaning day to day life and day to day people. Daniel was my tour guide and he was the highlight of the tour! He's brilliant and fluent in English which allowed him to share his vast intimate knowledge about the city. He took me to streets where I didn't see a single tourist. I saw what life really looks like away from the touristy areas. He whisked me through a flower market, food market and a wholesale market where I found my favorite teas and coffee to take home. He is passionate about Buddhism and he took me to a stunning pagoda hidden in the back alleyways where we said prayers. He taught me a lot on this tour. I highly recommend touring the town with Daniel!

What an experience, exploring Saigon with Urii and Bob - Definitely a unique and memorable experience!! We enjoyed every minute even we had rain some of the time (even that was fun).
This private tour gave me and my best friend a great opportunity to explore the city like the locals. It was a fun and an exciting way to learn about how Saigon evolved and its history. Not only did we have Vietnamese coffee/drinks on this tour, but we had a traditional meal together.
Both guides, Urii and Bob, were definitely a bonus as they are really fun, knowledgeable and we both felt very safe riding with them on each of their scooters! You are the best.
We can highly recommend this unique experience to explore Saigon!

Hidden Gems on Motorbike tour with Urii - I booked my tour with Guruwalk and the ine assigned to so easy to converse with.
I was picked up on time at my hotel and I had fun with my tour with Urii. She made me feel comfortable. She even brought me to a cute coffee shop where I bought a coffee filter and coffee beans.
Thank you so much!

Spontaneous trip that turned out amazing - I had not planned anything for the day in advance and this last minute decision turned out to be amazing. I went on this tour with Tuấn Anh aka the 'Handsome Hero'. He is very well informed and really loves his job. He gave a fun filled sneak peak into the cultural history of Ho Chi Minh and it was amazing. Without such experiences one can never know a lot of important aspects of some other country and city. I now have a lot of starting references to read deeper into Vietnamese history. It really felt like I could get a small glimpse into the soul of this city or else I would have just gone back from shopping centers. Thank you for an amazing experience.
