Interesting walk around with Thien!

We met Thien for amazing coffee and chat before exploring the surrounding areas and meeting local Saigonese, Cambodian, Chinese and market areas of the city. Great stories, great laughs and interesting history about the area. Thanks Thien!

Great tour and what a nice guy! - Hieu

Hieu met us at out hotel and was an excellent guide, showing us around parts of town we would otherwise not have found and providing great insight about the places we visited. Coffee and food was also amazing! Great tour, great vibes and a hell of a nice guy! Thanks a lot Hieu!
