Xin Chào! Hello, my fellow travelers and citizens of the world,
My name is Nhu (pronounced as "New"). I am a true Saigonese, and I would love to meet you in person, show you around my home city, and share some laughs with you.
I love my hometown and its unique blend of culture, history, and delicious cuisine. Throughout my life, I have always lived in Saigon and have witnessed the tremendous and exciting changes in the city where I grew up. Indeed, I am a proud local of this dynamic and vibrant city. Please allow me to show you the beauty of Saigon, the Pearl of the Far East.
I have extensive experience working as an English-speaking local guide for various companies, and I spent many years during college working as a hotel front desk agent. My understanding of cultural differences and my curiosity make me a great local guide. I UNDERSTAND you and your needs because I am a traveler myself.
Why am I your perfect choice?
There are many wonderful local guides in Ho Chi Minh City, but I will not only be your guide; I will also be the friend you know in Saigon.
Here’s what I offer in my tours (including but not limited to):
- Door-to-door service, with pick-up and drop-off as requested.
- The flexibility to customize your own itinerary or choose from my ready-to-book tours.
- I avoid touristy spots as much as possible to ensure you have an off-the-beaten-path experience.
- No shopping (unless specifically requested).
- You’ll come as customers, but leave as friends.
If you have any questions, feel free to drop me a message. I am available to answer all of your inquiries, offer recommendations about hotels and restaurants, or provide tips on how to navigate the city.
I look forward to the day we finally meet in person!
Locally yours,
Ms. Nhu
