Great experience! - We loved this experience! It was good to get out of District 1 and see other parts of the city. China Town in Saigon is not like China Town in other cities! We loved the cyclo tour - it was mixed with some walking and visits to a market and pagoda. We also learned different things about the history and culture of Saigon on this tour than we learned on others. Fascinating and highly recommended!

HCM City is so many cities in one - While there were temples and markets of note, I most enjoyed the myriad streets and lanes and the life that is on display there.

Best fun in Ho Chi Minh - I was nervous at first about traveling through the city traffic but our drivers and guide were so skilled at manoeuvring amongst the crowds that I quickly relaxed. This was the best fun and most insightful tour. We chose the China town option and just loved it.
