Night ride sightseeing with Tin Tin’ team - Amazing night ride with Tin tin’s team! All team members were very kind and we could see Ho Chi Minh City vibe at night, by motorcycle it was a best way to explore the city and its history. Immerse yourself in a scooter traffic and enjoy delicious food recommended by the tour guides :) highly recommended
