Great to meet you, My name is Ben.
My brother Peter, and I are founders of a Local Guide Team with our co-hosts Daniel, Emmei, Hani, and more in Ho Chi Minh City. We first discovered Saigon while studying at University after leaving our hometown in rural Vietnam. We immediately became fascinated by the city's unique blend of culture, history, and delicious cuisine. Our education focused on tourism, and I have extensive experience working as a local English-speaking tour guide for various companies. But, We finally decided it was time to bring our custom-tailored experiences to my guests, so we're starting this local experience.
We are so grateful to our guests who have supported us by booking our experiences so that we can generate jobs for local guides from rural areas of Vietnam studying in Ho Chi Minh City. It is to help them earn money to make their parents feel less burdened financially and to have a tourism and English environment to practice during their studies at their tourism university.
Why choose us?
1. Specialized: Knowledge, passion, and personal perspective
2. An experience like a local: Something guests can't find anywhere else
3. Connect: Warmly welcome guests, turning strangers into friends
Thank you for stopping by, and we look forward to connecting with you more!
Urii was great!!! Loved the pancakes!
Lily was great, she showed me some great spots in the city and was very knowlagable about the history behind them. Even took me to a great Hu Tieu place, she ordered me the 'dry noodle' version, and I hosestly think this was the best meal I had on my Vietnam trip. She was a pro scooter rider too, I felt completely safe with her driving through the Saigon crazyness!!
Excelente guia! Nos ayudó hasta tomar el Grab! Muchas Gracias 😊! Otra vez caminá más despacio, somos grandecitas...😜
Emmie foi uma guia excelente pelas rua e história de Ho Chi Minh. Muito conhecimento sobre toda a história e cultura locais com ótimas dicas de cafés, restaurantes e comidas de rua. Muito solícita, simpática e prestativa. Recomento muito. Tour foi simplesmente excelente.
