We were lucky enough to get a 'private VIP' tour with Joseph, as we were his only tourists for the tour. fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole experience enjoyable. Joseph shared great insights, kept everything well organized, and made sure we felt comfortable and engaged. Highly recommend!

El recorrido muy interesante, hemos pasado por zonas muy locales, calles donde hemos visto la vida real del vietnamita. La información del gurú muy detallada, con muy buen nivel de inglés. El único inconveniente es que no hemos podido visitar el palacio de la independencia, debido a que estaba cerrado por un evento importante, cosas fuera de control...en general un tour interesante y recomendable.

Response from Detour Asia
Hi Monica, 🌿 Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed exploring the local areas and seeing real life in Saigon. Sorry about the Independence Palace being closed that day — sometimes these events are beyond our control — but we’re happy to hear you still found the tour interesting and recommendable. Warm regards, Joseph & the team
