Commonly known as "Saigon", Ho Chi Minh City is the largest city in Vietnam; a home to more than 10 million people and 8 million scooters! We can still see well-preserved colonial buildings and war relics in the city. On the other hand, high rise and modern buildings are making their presence felt. Although the city is chaotic with endless slow-moving traffic, the hustle and bustle of the city do not affect the unique friendliness of the people.

Afterwards, as fresh as they come, we’ll savour juicy exotic fruits from the wet market (not so wet). Then we will go to an 86-year-old coffee house and aunties will show us how to make coffee or tea. We will sip on bold Vietnamese coffee & tea that'll power you up for the day.

Saigon, Vietnam's business and financial hub, has a rich history. Originally settled by the Khmers, it was taken over by the Vietnamese in the 17th century and later conquered by the French in 1859, becoming the capital of Cochin China in 1862. This led to the development of elegant architecture and broad boulevards still seen today. Saigon is known for its vibrant street life, historic sites, and warm climate, offering insights into local culture and daily life.

Interesting and Educational Tour

Lee is very knowledgeable, easy to understand and accommodating. The Cu Chi Tunnels tour itself is interesting and educational. Lee not only provides rich detail he also poses questions that bring you into the tour and makes the information more memorable. Would recommend the tour and Lee as your guide.

FANTASTIC CULTURAL EXPERIENCE OF THE MEKONG DELTA!

I’m a seasoned traveler for over 30 years and have experienced my share of tours… However, I would have to say that this Delta tour organized by Stephen Vu is by far second to none! Stephen is the real deal! He is honest and cares about your personal experience. If you want the highest caliber organizer of your tour who cares about you? Stephen is the man! He knew exactly what I was looking for in an authentic Mekong Delta tour and set me up with Minh, a very experienced & knowledgeable local guide with over 25 years of experience and spoke very good English. At first, I thought it was going to be like a zoo with tons of people in traffic jam on the boats, like videos on Youtube of the Delta tour. Stephen set the Delta tour in Ben Tre. In my opinion, Ben Tre is much more personal and authentic as we were guided away from the other Delta tours where there were many companies aggregated in clusters to the same Mekong venue. That is, I was treated like a local celebrity as we were the only boat silently traversing through the narrow Delta, which enable us to experience the natural ecosystem to its fullest. Merci Stephen! Doc K.

Dear Doc K, Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience! I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the Delta tour and that it exceeded your expectations. It’s always my goal to create authentic and unforgettable experiences for travelers like you. I’m glad that Minh was able to provide the local insights that made your journey unique. Ben Tre truly offers a more personal touch, and I’m happy you felt like a local celebrity during your exploration. Your feedback means a lot to me, and I hope to welcome you on another adventure in the future! Merci beaucoup, Stephen Vu
