Amazing - I took this tour with my 23 yr old daughter and I can honestly say it is the best decision I made and the best tour / workshop I have ever taken. A wonderful way to see the amazing city of Ho Chi Minh and also a fabulous way to improve your photography. Loved it.

Family (6 people) photo tour with Adrien - The whole family (6 people) really enjoyed this experience with Adrien. Most of us had no experience in photography and we learned a lot. Adrien gave us tips and explained the way to tell stories through our photos.
Definitely recommend.

Go hang out with Adrien! - Adrien is an extremely positive, friendly and professional guide. Within minutes we already felt good energy with him. He took us to secret nooks and alleys & introduced us to the life of local residents. Everybody seems to instantly like him, so taking photos feels natural and not obtrusive. Real gem of a tour. go hang out with Adrien!

Capturing Saigon - Fantastic experience! Spent an afternoon touring the backsides of Saigon that I never would have found without Adrien. He is an amazingly talented, approachable & knowledgeable guide, having lived in Saigon for 10 years. We started our session at a café drinking coffee where he asked what my goals were for the day (people, architecture, sunsets...) & offered advice (based on my experience level) on improving my skills. I was very happy with the images I was able to capture & felt this was a great value for money. I look forward to returning for another session w/Adrien soon.

Book for an amazing day of photography. - Not much to add to the great reviews already posted. However you will not meet such a genuine young man as Adrien. His local knowledge is amazing and the help he offers to less experienced photographers is brilliant. Have no hesitation in booking him you will leave your trip with some amazing images.

Capture the real Saigon - I didn’t do the sunset tour but did a second sunrise tour around District 4. We loved our first tour with Adrien so booked another one!
During to tour, Adrien explained how he would shoot a particular scene and also reviewed our photos so that we could learn by trying something different. We wandered through buildings, alleys and even a roof top which gave us a different perspective. We also stopped to eat and drink at local street vendors and cafes which I would never had found by myself.
My photography improved almost instantly I am now looking at my environment very differently. If you want to capture the real Saigon I suggest you wander with Adrien.
As a welcome surprise, Adrien gave us a booklet which reinforced his teachings and also sent me some photos of me taking photos - which was lovely as I am normally the one taking the photos.

Fantastic day in Saigon - I had an incredible first visit to Saigon thanks to Adrien.
From the moment I reached out to him, his communication via email and whatsapp was excellent, and he crafted a unique itinerary that allowed me to discover the hidden side of the city. Adrien’s ability to speak Vietnamese made it easy to connect with locals.
I was traveling with my son, who was using his iPhone for photography, while I had my camera. Adrien made the day equally exciting for both of us. He ensured that we could capture amazing photos, whether with a professional camera or a smartphone. It was a fantastic experience to share as a family!
Not only did we explore the hidden gems of Saigon, but Adrien also made sure that our day ended with a beautiful sunset boat ride along the Saigon River. This gave us a breathtaking panoramic view of the city from the water—a perfect way to wrap up an unforgettable experience !

Amazing tour in the hidden streets of Saigon - I would like to thank Adrien for guide me in the hidden places around Saigon. Even I’m not a pro photographer he supported me for the setting of the camera and also in the composition of the pictures. I will treasure his teachings for new adventures in street photography

Spotting shots to tell a different story - Adrien’s tour has it all: fun, exciting, unexpected, off the beaten, and educational! Amazing how he knows, finds and unlocks all the cool spots and shots! Highly recommended, especially if you’re looking for a different perspective and story to tell 📸 He’ll teach you how to ‘fish’ for that! 😉

A great experience for unique photos around Saigon - This photo tour was awesome and I would highly recommend it! First, Adrien took some time to teach us a bit about how to better use our cameras, also explaining what we would focus on during the tour and how the day would be organized. After that, Adrien took us in many different streets and areas where the lights, the people and the overall athmosphere changed from one street to another. It was a great experience to learn from Adrien's knowledge both about photography and of the city. Whether you are already a good photographer or a beginner, you will find here a great experience and get back with amazing photos.
