A fantastic tour - My family of three have just had a fantastic morning with our tour guide Chris and driver Mr Hai. Chris was so personable and knowledgeable, he provided so much fascinating history about HCMC and Vietnam generally. And Mr Hai was a very safe, patient and confident driver. We couldn’t have asked for a better tour! We’ll be highly recommending to any friends and family who travel to Vietnam.

Bravo to Chris and his team! - This tour is an exciting introduction to Ho Chi Minh City. We saw historic buildings from the French period through the 1960s and learned a great deal about the local forces that shaped the city over the years. The best part of the trip was the insight added by our engaging guides, Chris, Linh, Sha Vang, and Lucie. We learned a lot about everyday life in the city from them and had fun, too. We felt like we were scooting around with friends. They were all terrific drivers and we felt very safe amidst the chaos that is traffic in this city!

A fun and informative way to see Saigon! - We had a blast! Our guides, Chris and David, were friendly, fun, and knowledgeable -- and delightful drivers in the chaos that is Saigon traffic! They took us to fascinating sites and provided great background information. The secret place (don't worry, Chris, I won't say where) was a special treat! I would 100% recommend this tour to family and friends.

Adventures in Ho Chi Minh - Our tour with Justin was fantastic. He was very informative and we learnt a lot about Vietnams culture, history and different religions. Our driver was very patient and friendly. We would definitely recommend this tour to others.

Perfect morning trip - We had a great scooter tour with our two guides. Both were very friendly and knowledgeable (and great motor cyclists). Highlight for us was sitting chatting having our traditionally brewed coffee in the Chinatown market.

Always something new to see with AN - My partner and i did this tour today, we have each been to HCMC 4 times, yet on this tour we still discovered things neither of us had seen before. Our tours Chris and Jason were super knowledgeable and gave us in depth explanations of the rich culture and history behind each stop, they both have amazing english and were able to answer every question we had as well as making us laugh alot along the way...it often felt like we were hanging out with friends. We do tours with AN every time we are in Vietnam and i highly reccomend them, and this tour specifically aswell if you want to see some hidden gems and get of the typical tourist path. Thankyou again chris and jason 🫶

A great morning out, totally recommended! - Another AN Tour that was totally worth it. Our city tour guides Chris, Ben and Jason offered such an informative tour with lots of background info. We loved that it did not feel scripted, but were given a personal approach. Once again, it felt like each member of our family had their own personal guide, as they all spoke good English and made an effort to get to know us. The places we visited added meaning to our vietnam experience, and we can only recommend this tour. The guides made it all the more enjoyable though, we laughed a lot and will remember our time for sure! As a side note, they also made us feel incredibly safe on the scooters. And don't forget.. 'chess on the water' 🤣
