Personalised and amazing - Thien was amazing and passionate about her city! A great story-teller and knowledgeable about the history of Ho Chi Min City.

One of our best travel experiences of all time! - Thank you Thien for an incredibly open, honest, revealing, entertaining and curiosity quenching time. It was by far one of the best times we have had from all our travel experiences (and one of the most human ones!). What an honour for us to have spent so much time exploring your city and understanding it through your eyes and experience. Anyone wishing to have an immersive travel experience should do this! And do it with Thien. Her reputation of "The Hip Storyteller" does not begin to describe the real Thien. Book it now - you will not regret a moment of it. Love you Thien! Thank you.

Tour of district 6 old town - Great experience if you want the gritty experience of how the average people live. Toured the market and then temple of the sea goddess. Very packed 3 hours. Lots of info. Huyen is knowledgeable and fun.

Fabulous insight into Saigon with the wonderful, hilarious Huyen - Spent a delightful couple of hours on our first day in Ho Chi Minh with Huyen. She took us to the less travelled (for tourists) area to see the sights, sounds and smells accompanied by lots of interesting stories, anecdotes and laughter. What a fun few hours. Would definitely recommend taking time out to do this tour with Huyen. Will give you a different perspective and understanding of the Vietnamese history and way of life.

Top Experience - We had a great experience with that tour. Huyen is a very open, communicative and well prepared person. We loved her after the first second. She tells a lot of details which you won’t get from a „standard“ tour. Highly recommend to do a tour with her! Cheers

Great personalised private tour - I arrived in HCMC a day ahead of some friends that I was meeting there and having been 10 years previously wanted a guide to show me some off the beaten track sights. Huyen was a pleasure to hang out with one-on-one. She had lots of energy and interesting facts. We travelled around on public transport, walked a lot and saw some new unexplored areas of the city. We went at our own pace and there was time to stop and take photos, buy a lot of cashew nuts and dried mango and the best banh mi in town! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend booking Huyen, she was fantastic. Thank you!

A fascinating insight into living and working in Saigon - Weve used WithLocals a number of times now and never been disappointed. Having been to HCMC a few times previously, and seen most of the top tourist attractions, we were looking to do something a bit different for a few hours before we joined our Mekong River cruise. Thien plugged that gap perfectly. She was super enthusiastic, bubbly and hugely knowledgeable about her home city. She tailored our walk to our interests even coping, without a complaint, to several enforced bathroom stops along the way. :) We started the tour with a short bus ride, something we would never have done by ourselves, which was entertaining in itself. I don't think there was a question throughout her time with us that she couldn't answer and even provided us with some very interesting insights to living in HCMC and the wider Vietnam. Finally Thien was very helpful in providing other suggestions for things to do and see on our return to HCMC. As I said I can't recommend a guided tour with Thien highly enough. Book. You will not be disappointed.

Excellent tour - Hieu was a Fantastic guide very knowledgeable and excellent English. We walked around the largest temple in Saigon and then went around the residential areas of Saigon including local markets finishing with a local coffee. All in all the tour took around 2 hrs 45mins. This trip was a good complement to the main site seeing tour we also did whilst in the city

Off the Beaten Track in HCM City -Quan 6 - Highly recommend this tour with Huyen. She accommodated our group by meeting us in our hotel instead of starting the tour at the designated point. She took us to a wonderful market, shops, and a temple. We sampled fruits and other snacks. She knew the locals and even helped us shop. She showed us a side of Saigon very different from District 1. Do this tour!
