Great to meet you, I'm Binh, and my English name is Ben.
My brother Peter and I are founders of our local guide team. I first discovered Saigon while studying at University after leaving my 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, and I have extensive experience working as a local English-speaking tour guide for various companies. But, I finally decided it was time to bring my custom-tailored experiences to my guests, so I'm starting this local experience.
I have been hosting such tours for four years to share my local experiences in Ho Chi Minh City. I would happily guide you through this fantastic city and show you everything Saigon offers!
Thank you for stopping by, and I look forward to connecting with you more!
Best regards,
Ben
