Fantastic guides showed us a great time! - We had such a fun evening with Kelvin and Dan as our guides. They spoke excellent English, had great local knowledge and such great sense of humour. If you do this tour be prepared to be full! We didn’t eat lunch in preparation and we were struggling halfway through. Culturally we didn’t want to be rude by not eating what was put in front of us, but Kelvin and Dan assured us it was ok. My advice if you want to try everything would be to enjoy a few small bites of all you are offered so you can make it to the end.

Walking Tour - The food tour was amazing! Jackson (Huy) our tour guide was super nice and knew all the good places to eat. He knew all about the food and we talked freely any topics , which made it feel like we were just hanging out and trying new things. We went to a lot of different spots that I wouldn't have known other wise and tried all the dishes that were in our list to try. It being a private tour it was allowed us to take our time as well. Overall, it was a lovely evening spent, good food was enjoyed, and Jackson was great. I would recommend this tour to everyone!

Delicious Food Tour - We loved our food tour with our guide Talia. She took care of us very well and made sure we were comfortable the whole trip. The food was amazing and we enjoyed wandering around streets and neighborhoods with her. She answered all our questions and she gave us lots of good information about both the areas we explored and the food. Talia was very kind and patient. I would highly recommend this tour.

A Must-do Tour! - This tour was a perfect start to my time in Ho Chi Minh. I got to have an insider view of the city and culture and also to mix sightseeing with great coffee and food. Talia was a fantastic guide! She was very knowledgeable about every stop and the city in general. She also recommend additional places to visit and foods and restaurants that would meet my dietary needs, which was very helpful. I enjoyed our conversation and she gave me some very helpful tips to practice the Vietnamese language. It was amazing to have such a personal experience on a tour. All of the stops were interesting and the pace was very good. What originally drew me to the tour was the visit to the Chinese Pagoda and Thousand Buddha Temple. Do not miss these! They were gorgeous, fascinating, and really an honor to visit. I was the only tourist there, which is rare in such precious spiritual places. We even ended the tour with my best meal in HCM yet! Thank you to Talia and to Saigonese Experience for your professionalism and a wonderful experience of HCM.
