Great private Ho Chi Minh City tour. Wonderful guide - Exceptional services.Highly recommended.This private HCM city tour was better than I expected. Let me start of by saying peter my tour guide was awesome!! He took me to all the places listed and gave enough information about each place. Peter was very likeable and easy to talk to it felt like I was hanging out with a friend! I would definitely recommend as I learned a lot about Ho Chi Minh City. Also the recommendations given by Peter were definitely appreciated 🙂. Big thanks.

Best trip !!!! Highly recommend - It was an amazing way to experience Ho Chi Minh City, and we did so much that we wouldn’t have been able to do without this tour. Highly recommend!!!! Really enjoyed everything from start to finish. Private car is really the best way to see the city and our hosts showed us both major spots as well as a few more local areas. Great conversations the entire time. 10/10!

HCM CITY - If you come to Vietnam and still dont know where to go then Ho Chi Minh is the greatest choice. All the buildings here are so tall and monumental, they plant a lot of trees it means air is so fresh, people is funny and friendly. I had made alot of Vietnam friends. So you really need come to this city

Disappointing - This tour was very disappointing. It was advertised as a full day guided tour. The time on the website was confusing. Pickup was at 8am but duration on one area said 24 hours and the other said 8 minutes. I asked as can be seen in my previous message, but did not get a response. The tour was not a full day, nor fully guided. I was picked up at 8 and whisked through the sites. I was left to explore the War Remnants Museum on my own while the guide slept in the cafe.. After lunch, he announced it was over. I asked to see the Opera House so we drove by, then I was dropped off at 12:30. 4.5 hours is not a full day tour, nor was it well guided.. I am writing so that others aren't disappointed as I was. When I asked the guide who he worked for, he said he was a freelancer and had gotten this job from a friend who just gave him a list of sites to visit. For the cost, 1 Adult $152.15 USD I am very sorry i took this tour.

Experience the worst tour of your life - It is bizarre to be forced to write a review under the duress upon the end of a tour. The tour guide invited herself into the hotel lobby so that she can be present at the time of me writing this review. She must not have led many other tours because the other reviews look bot generated and poorly written as they lack any substance about the tour. Just false, generic commentary about HCM. It’s not that clean, the buildings are not that tall/impressive, and the people are cold and indifferent. Shame on me for not catching these sooner but take this as a warning to not even bother and go back to your search results and do anything else with your time in HCM. I was planning to not leave a review altogether but here we go as I have been left with no other choice by the tour guide. The tour wasn’t that interesting given that you can do everything yourself with better logistics planning than what’s experienced during this tour. The tour guide and driver discussed what to do nearly the entire time because they failed to develop a detailed itinerary in advance. We booked our tour months in advance and it’s surprising how unprepared the day was. Google attractions in HCM and just book yourself a Grab taxi to get from place to place based on what piques your interest. She doesn’t give interesting facts that you couldn’t get from an audio guide and leaves you to roam alone in the War Remnants Museum anyway. You will be taken to a place that tells you about lacquer art then try to sell you the finished work. It felt like a grift. She was annoyed I had no interest in going into the bunker of the Ca Phe Do Phu establishment as if that would have significantly changed the trajectory of the mediocre day and criticized me to the driver. Entirely unprofessional. If you want a poorly planned, unpleasant day that wastes your time and money and a tour guide that forces herself into your hotel, look no further.
