“Best guide in HCMC - a gentleman and knowledgeable ”
I travelled with my wife (a wheelchair user) and my 12 yo daughter. In the week prior to arriving Kevin sent and adjusted the itinerary to ensure it was to our personal preference and all aspects were accessible. No amount of effort was too much. We met for a food tour on night 1 (4 hours). Kevin knew all the side streets and best vendors. He explained the culture, detailed the cuisine and kept us thoroughly entertained. He escorted us to and from the hotel and to be honest, within a few minutes of being in his company we knew we had made a great choice. Day 2 cu chi tunnels Kevin collected us in an air. Conditioned minivan. On the journey we chatted bout the tunnels and the history of Vietnam, again he had great knowledge and insight. We ate in a beautiful lunch venue (included) before visiting the war museum in city centre and a lovely walking tour, again personalised to ensure my wife could manage the route. He actually adjusted the walk midway through as the weather was so nice, so we all walked back to hotel in sunshine. This added extra time but Kevin refused to take extra money. Day 3 Mekong delta Again collected in minivan for long journey to Delta. Stops includes a tour of a silk factory and an opportunity to buy top quality clothes at very. Heap prices. While at the Mekong we visited several island, learning about the history and sampling local produce and given private tours of seceral area include coconut sweet factory!!! We got to hold a hive of domesticated bees that were making honey, also had a snake wrapped around us !!! Lunch was beautiful on banks of the Mekong. Followed by private boat trip on river. We also had opportunities to feed crocodiles and catfish. I CANNOT express enough how amazing the whole experience was and how thankful we are to Kevin. I would have happily paid double for these tours!! If you are visiting HCMC contact Kevin in advance to see what he has available ! My daughter still asks after him each morning !!

“Excellent Tour Guide!”
There is no better way to experience Saigon! Kevin and his team were great to us. If you are going to be in Saigon, there is no better tour guide than Kevin. He is extremely knowledgeable about the local culture and will take great care of you. Zigzagging through traffic was a blast! His calm, friendly demeanor made us feel at ease. I highly recommend you take his tours as soon as you arrive in town to get to know the local scene. Looking forward to taking more tours the next time I am in town.

“Experience HCMC like a Local”
If you’re looking for a great way to experience the city like a local, this motorcycle food tour with Jason and Will is a must! ## **Amazing Food & Expert Guides** * **Expert Guides**: Jason and Will were fantastic hosts who spoke excellent English and were incredibly courteous throughout the night. * **Knowledgeable & Engaging**: They are both friendly and fun, keeping us engaged with stories about the city's history and culture. * **Seamless Ordering**: We didn't have to worry about a thing; they handled all the ordering and explained exactly what each dish was and the proper way to eat it. ## **A True Local Experience** * **Delicious Samples**: We sampled a wide variety of delicious local foods that we likely never would have found on our own. * **Unique Perspective**: Using motorcycles to navigate the city was an absolute blast and a unique way to learn about the different districts through their flavors. I highly recommend booking with Jason and Will if you want an authentic, fun, and tasty adventure!

It's great to meet you, I'm Binh I founded a local guide team with well-trained, knowledgeable, passionate co-hosts Emmie, Hani, Lily, Urri, Den, Bob, Daniel, and others I first discovered Saigon while studying at University after leaving our hometown in rural Vietnam. I immediately became fascinated by the city's unique blend of culture, history, and delicious cuisine. My education focused on tourism. I finally decided it was time to bring my custom-tailored experiences to my guests. Our interest is that we like to show people around our city and share our perspectives and stories. We know the hidden gems and have a very deep passion and love for our city, which we like to share. Great experiences for our guests are never accomplished by one person but by a team. Thanks for our team’s dedication to providing exceptional hospitality. We are looking forward to connecting with you more!! Best regards, Ben

I am an English speaking tour guide in Saigon who is specialized in Cu Chi Tunnels Trip. I spent 15 years taking tourists to that place every week. I created a historical video which explains the Vietnam War and the tunnels system. I play the video in the vehicle while we are going to the tunnel from the hotel; and the tourists enjoy it very much. Of course, I also do other tours as City tour, Mekong Delta…
