A good introduction to Ho Chi Minh - Victor was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about Ho Chi Minh. His English was very good and he even recommended a good restaurant close to our hotel.

Good tour of the city of Saigon! - We had a wonderful time with Victor on our walking tour of Saigon. He shared lots of information about his culture and the history of Saigon. We had a wonderful beverage at the end of the tour and enjoyed his company there. If you are a sensitive soul like me, the war museum may be a little hard. It made me cry. But it is a good reminder that we need peace and to be kind to others always.

Incredible Tour! Local perspective to Vietnam’s history. - This tour with Kevin was absolutely incredible! His passion for his work shines through in every story he tells. Kevin is kind, patient, and a truly gifted storyteller. It was just my wife and me on the tour today, and we had a fantastic time from start to finish.
We began at the War Remnants Museum, where Kevin gave us a full hour to explore at our own pace. Afterwards, he shared insightful perspectives on Vietnam’s history—thoughtful, balanced, and genuinely fascinating.
Towards the end of the tour, he even treated us to some amazing coffee. When we mentioned that we were looking to buy good coffee beans, Kevin went out of his way to pick some up from a place he trusts and personally dropped them off at our hotel. We were deeply touched by his generosity and hospitality.
10/10 would wholeheartedly recommend taking this tour with Kevin and his team. An unforgettable experience!

A memorable day - Fabulous tour with Justin who was extremely knowledgeable, professional, helpful and friendly. He explained the history of his country and the significance of the buildings we visited and also the aspirations for the future of his country. He also helped us to cross the roads safely! Wonderful thank you.

HCMC Walking Tour - I had a one on one tour with Kevin the guide. Kevin was knowledgeable and also listened to my questions and comments and provided keen on the War Remnants Museum, the Norte Dame Cathedral, and the Post Office. I highly recommend this tour to anyone and you will be lucky if Kevin is your guide.

Ho Chi Minh Tour - Kevin was very accommodating when we let him know we’d be a little late because of traffic. He was also able to juggle things so we could get back to our bus in time for transportation back to our ship.
That said, a couple of things were disappointing. One of the main items on the tour, the cathedral, was completely covered in scaffolding and closed for renovation. We wish another venue could have been substituted.
Kevin was very eager for us to see the War Remnants Museum. Although we booked the tour knowing this was included, we would have preferred to have a shorter time there with less emphasis on the horrors of war and less “lecturing” that felt to us like propaganda. We lived through the Vietnam War; Kevin did not. We know it was an awful time for his country and for ours. We would have preferred to experience the new, energized and engaged Vietnam, rather than its past.
We enjoyed the end of the tour on the Book Street with a stop at a coffee shop and would have loved to spend more time exploring that street and other interesting neighborhoods of Ho Chi Minh City.

Not the best - Bit of a disappointment for the money we paid. I don’t feel like we saw as much as we could of. We were left to explore the war remnants museum on our own, shown the palace from outside the gates. The post office which is free and the Notre Dame, which is under restoration for a few more years.
