I joined this street food tour and unfortunately experienced several serious issues. I clearly and repeatedly communicated that I do not eat shellfish. Despite this, I was served a dish containing shrimp. This is a safety concern, not a preference, and it caused unnecessary stress. Additionally, at the Secret Weapon Bunker, the guide mimicked pointing and shooting a weapon toward my husband, which we found inappropriate and unsettling. This was a “free” tour and we still tipped the guide generously. My feedback is not about money, but about safety, respect, and professionalism. The operator later acknowledged these issues and apologized, which I appreciate. However, due to these concerns, I cannot recommend this tour.
Quan was well prepared and very informative. We enjoyed ourselves and learned a lot about the city. We recommend this tour!
Andy was an amazing guide! He made everything interesting and easy to understand, and he shared great local recommendations. Thank you so much!
Wade was extremely sweet and gave the tour with extreme enthusiasm.. we got to know a lot of things about Vietnamese culture and popular places which was a good start to our trip.
Our guide (Andy) was really friendly and knowledgeable! We signed up as a family and were lucky to get a private tour. Andy was accommodating throughout, nothing felt forced and food was definitely good! 😋😋
