Great to meet you, I'm Ben. I'm the founder of a locally run tour company based in Saigon, where I lead a team of well-trained, passionate local guides. Since 2019, we’ve been offering unique, authentic experiences that take guests beyond the usual tourist paths. After moving from my rural hometown to study tourism for four years, I’ve spent over six years guiding visitors and discovering the heart and soul of this vibrant city. Saigon has become more than just my home—it's a place I love deeply and know intimately. Together with my team, we share the hidden gems, rich flavors, and untold stories of Saigon—from a true local perspective. What drives us is simple: we love our city, and we love showing people around, sharing the real Saigon through our eyes and experiences. Contact my whatsapp number: + 84 363 533 270 for any additional questions. We are looking forward to going on the tour with you.

(All local Vietnamese street food stalls have Safe Food Certificate)

 Food and drinks are not included. On average, it costs around $6 USD per person, but if you eat a lot, it could be up to $15 USD per person—this depends entirely on your preferences. Please bring extra cash in Vietnamese Dong to pay local vendors directly, as they only accept Dong. Thank you







NOTE:  I want to confirm that the tour is by SCOOTER, not walking. The tour lasts 4 hours, not including food and coffee as stated in my description. I can pick you up at your hotel address in central districts 1,3, or 4. Other local districts, you will meet us at the meeting place, Saigon Opera House.

Because this tour is by scooter, so we will have 2 options for you:

First option: The rented scooter fee is 7$ USD = 180k per scooter, you drive it by yourself. If you prefer to ride a scooter yourself, you must have a valid international scooter/motorbike license. Additionally, you will be responsible for your own safety and any accidents that may occur during the tour. After the tour 4 hours, if you don't want to return the scooter, you can keep it as long as in 24 hours. Or you can rent your own scooter and join the tour with us.

Second option: We will be your drivers & tour guides, you will sit behind our scooters, each tour guide will drive each guest, including the insurance accident. This option is a private tour, so I can even conduct the tour with 1 guest. Send messages via Whatsapp for any more questions: +84364533270
