“Such a lovely arrival day with Mr.Chau”
We asked Chau for a customized plan after we experienced his online tour "Floating Temple". As expected, we found he is such a good guy with kind heart and professionalism when we met in person. He gave us all the facilitation on arrival day, including airport transfer and taking us to PCR test center. The private car ride was so comfortable, too. (clean & stylish SUV) Thank you for your time today. Namie Masuda He was a very kind and fun guy. I can trust him very much. Rieko

FLOATING TEMPLE - A MUST -SEE IN SAIGON
“An amazing online tour”
The tour stated from boat ride, where I was able to see many local citizens out there. I felt as if I was truly at the site, and happy to see the whole approach to the temple on boat. The guide Chau showed me detailed info of the temple. We also had a talk about Chinese culture, too. (But I like the HAPPY BUDDHA best!) This is my first online tour experience but the guide gave me a thorough instructions of how we meet. The location of the floating temple is a bit far from downtown so it is also a recommendation those who visit Ho CHi Minh but have no enogh time to be there.
