Mega coole Cyclo and Streetfood Tour - we booked an evening cycle tour with Lingh for two people. She took us through the city first and then to a special part of the city where the locals of Saigon live. We looked at a house there where locals live. We ate street food there for the first time and then we moved on to another street food area and tried a lot of delicious things again. Afterwards we went to Flower Market and afterwards we tried street food in another street It was a wonderful evening We received a lot of information. Our guide Lingh, a lovely young woman, was just great. Answered all the questions and we had a lot of fun together. The tour is an absolute five star plus and highly recommended. We absolutely enjoyed it and were happy to meet Saigon from this side.

The food was full... - I just finished my Vietnam Trips with my mom. Usually Korean food is very delicious, but Vietnamese food is really great. My mother also ate only Vietnamese rice in Korea and was very impressed. So this time, we have tasted a Vietnamese peanut butter, beef (leaf-burned beef), peanut butter, ice cream made of avocado and coconut, and peanut butter. Transportation in Vietnam was a bit crowded, but when cycling I felt especially safe. The cyclist was very comfortable driving slowly. It was a very special experience! Next time I want to go back with a friend!

Lovely Lihn will show you so many things you cannot read about in the travel guides - Linh arrived at the hotel on time and then the cyclo driver picked me up and drove me around. Both were very kind and knowledgeable. After a short ride around the main attractions and some photo opportunities, we headed to the market and the flower market. I got a beautiful lotus flower as a present. Then we visited a local home and afterwards the food tour startet. It was amazing to say the least. I tried bahn mi, bun bo hue, then a local juice, Vietnamese pizza, beef rolls, summer roll and the tip of the iceberg was a yummy icecream. Lihn was very helpful and I really enjoyed every bit of it!

Best Rickshaw/Food - Tour 😁 apply for it! - Our guide Linh gave us a warm welcome and briefed us on the day’s itinerary. The rickshaw tour was fantastic, offering a unique perspective of the city. Linh followed us on her scooter, sharing fascinating historical facts at each stop, including the Ho Chi Minh Statue and Reunification Palace. She really explained the facts very well and showed us some details on the IPad. It was different compare to other tours, because it was way more locally and genuine. We enjoyed a delicious Bun Bo in District 3, thanks to Linh’s recommendation. As night fell, the city’s lights created a magical atmosphere. The highlight was the largest flower market of Ho Chi Minh, where Linh taught us to fold a lotus flower We ended the tour with a delightful Vietnamese pizza and the Rickshaws took us back to the hotel A truly unforgettable experience with many highlights. I'm still getting goosebumps when I'm thinking about it.

Cyclo Tour - I and my son booked this tour in Saigon and it was absolutely perfect - a combination of sight seeing and Vietnamese cuisine culture. My son usually have to sit on a wheel chair and this tour is very comfortable for him. The drivers are so friendly and helpful, my driver also can speak a little bit French. The tour guide knows every corner of this city and explain us, we had chance to immerse ourselves in local life. Definately highly recommend for everyone!
