Unforgettable 🎉 - We picked to do the tour with the water puppet show, the cyclo and the dinner cruise because we thought it would be a good way to see a bit of Ho Chi Minh City. We did not expect the brilliant experience that we received. Ryan our guide was fantastic. We have had a bit of a language barrier in Vietnam until we did this tour. Ryan’s English is great. His knowledge of Vietnam and passion for sharing his information made it so much more enjoyable. Even the Cyclo riders wanted to point out so many interesting things. We throughly enjoyed every minute and learnt so much about Vietnam. We are grateful that we had Ryan as our tour guide. We definitely recommend this company and of course Ryan. Hopefully, we can return to do and learn more about the beautiful Vietnamese culture in the near future. Thanks for an unforgettable night Ryan

A must do tour - What a great tour! It has a bit of everything. Dominic was my tour guide and he was friendly and took great care of me! The cyclo tour was fantastic and you see the city and stop for pictures. The water puppet theatre was my favorite- it was fantastic and a must see. After, we went on Dominic’s scooter to help with the traffic. That was an extra bonus. He is a great driver and I was confident in him so I could just enjoy the ride. Finally, the river cruise. The food was good, though I prefer the street vendors, and sailing at night along the river was magical. I’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone!

Awesome! - Unique experience, soulful music, it is one of vietnamese' traditional skills. Recommend a visit. Note- there is another water puppet show in the vicinity about 2 kms away which is now closed for restoration. I almost missed the show as I just typed water puppet show Ho Chi Minh on google and it directed me to the other one.

I like the tourist guide. - I booked for this tour early but we got the farthest seat. Since we all have an eyeglasses so it was just so so. The food that was served in the cruise was not reasonable for the price I paid for 4 people. But the tour guide is a very nice person.

Buying tickets through trip advisor was a mistake - Bought tickets through TripAdvisor the day before the show , received tickets and confirmation. The day of the show received an email stating my reservation had been cancelled. . Also the address was not listed. Went on my own paid again for tickets at window.plenty of unsold seats.show was ok. 7/10.
