“3 Tours in Saigon”
I recently had the pleasure of taking three tours with Kevin's Tour Teams, and I can’t recommend them highly enough! From the cooking class to the city highlights and night bike tour, each experience was well-organized and enjoyable. The guides were absolutely fantastic! They not only shared insightful information about Saigon’s history and culture but also made the tours feel personal and engaging. I loved how they tailored the experience to my needs, especially considering my food allergies. It’s clear they genuinely care about their guests’ experiences
