Free walking tours in Ho Chi Minh City

Was nice und very informativ

Nice and original tour, quite different from the others, with a good guide explaining tons of very interesting curiosities.

We really enjoyed our tour with Nana. Lots of information on the history of Vietnam and events and places we would otherwise not have come across. Instead of going to the most famous landmarks, she showed us hidden gems which made it a great experience!

Great insights of the city. But must be willing to walk. Allow for extra time as the walk may go beyond the stated time.

Loved this tour and would recommend to everyone travelling to Saigon to book with Joseph. His enthusiasm and energy was amazing. Ask him the secret of why he walks so fast ;)

Excelente guía. Muy profesional, atento y con un español impecable. El tour estuvo muy bien organizado y lleno de detalles interesantes que normalmente no aparecen en las guías turísticas. Se nota que disfruta compartiendo la cultura vietnamita con el mundo hispanohablante.

Linh was full of information about the city and did it with alot of heart. She brought us to many landmarks as well as related many interesting stories to us. I recommend her walking tour to anyone.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Long in Ho Chi Minh City. Traveling with a 3-year-old is not always the serene cultural montage one imagines while booking flights, and our daughter was definitely a little grumpy at times, but Long was incredibly patient, flexible, and kind throughout the entire tour. He adjusted the pace naturally, never made us feel rushed, and even helped carry the stroller when needed, which honestly felt like elite-level tour guide behavior in Ho Chi Minh City traffic. He also very attentively helped us navigate crossing streets and made sure we didn’t get flattened by the magnificent river of motorbikes. A skill that deserves both praise and possibly a medal. What really stood out was how genuinely caring and thoughtful he was. He was knowledgeable in a way that felt engaging and conversational rather than scripted, and we learned so much about the city’s history, culture, and daily life throughout the tour. Highly recommend Long to anyone visiting Ho Chi Minh City, especially families looking for a guide who is adaptable, knowledgeable, calm under pressure, and genuinely lovely to spend the day with.

We had a good experience on the Guru Walking Tour with Linh. She was very knowledgeable, shared lots of interesting facts, and made the tour fun and engaging throughout. You could really tell she knew the history and culture well. The only downside was that the group was quite large — around 14 people. Unfortunately, some participants did not speak English, so another participant had to constantly translate for them, which disrupted the flow of the tour and affected the overall experience for the rest of the group. At one point, they even disappeared and Linh had to stop the tour to go look for them. I think it would greatly improve the experience if group sizes were limited to around 10 people to keep everyone engaged and make the tour easier to manage. Overall, though, Linh did a great job and we still enjoyed the tour thanks to her knowledge and positive energy

We had such a brilliant walking tour with Nana. She was really informative, friendly and gave us such a great insight into local life, which felt like a proper contrast to the usual “see the sights” type of tour. One of the best parts was getting to experience more of the local vibe, including trying some snacks like banana sticky rice, and visiting Nana’s favourite coffee shop, which felt like a real hidden gem. We tried some unique coffee drinks there that we never would have found on our own. Nana also shared so many recommendations with us, which were genuinely invaluable for the rest of our time in the city. A really enjoyable, authentic and memorable tour. Highly recommend!

Increíble el guía Nguyen Thien en su conocimiento del español y sus comentarios

Great tour, lots of info and chill guide!

Very informative tour! Mike was wonderful, and always made sure to find us shade :)

I enjoyed the walk, and I was actually the first and only customer on this first run of this newly developed tour, so it’s definitely still taking shape and finding its feet. It is an off the beaten path tour, and not focused on the normal tourist attractions, instead often taking back alleyways and streets away from the main tourist areas, getting a feel for the real Ho Chi Minh City and sometimes its underbelly. I was hoping for a tour like this, but it may not be for everyone and definitely not for people looking to see the sights. I enjoyed my guide, Duc. Thanks.

We visited some good spots and discovered the famous Street Market Road

Very good guided walk of Ho Chi Minh city with Quan, who was very competent, and also a very nice guy. Lots of interesting facts and stories about the area and what we we were, and a comprehensive and interesting tour lasting about 2½ hours. We walked quite a bit, but for the final stop took a taxi as it was a little too far to walk. It was a very good tour, and I'd certainly recommend both the tour itself, which was really interesting and informative, and Quan as a guide, who I know offers other tours as well.

Very interesting tour with lots of historical insight.

Joseph is amazing. One of the best guide I had in Vietnam 🙏🏼

I got a message earlier in the day to say that as I was the only person booked into the tour, I needed to guarantee a payment of min. 30 USD. As I'm leaving HCMC in the morning I decided to go ahead, and I'm so glad I did. I'm a vegetarian, and I don't have a huge appetite, and Wade was so kind and considerate, negotiating smaller/cheaper portions so I could taste so many things. It was amazing to hear about his family's history and war experiences, and their lives now. The solo tour really was perfect and I'm very glad I did it.

Thannh did a nice route around central Sai Gon. He was very friendly and interesting.

Phantastic Tour, phantastic guide!! Great food and lots of information, a „must have“ when you want to experience a taste of this City guided by our super friendly and professional Dat!

Thomas was very informative about the history of the city! He took us around,gave us local recommendations, allowed us to explore places at our own pace and answered any questions we had. I was running a bit late and he very kindly waited for me too. At the end of the trip he also messaged us with a variety of great recommendations for things to see/do, food, drink etc. Great tour!

We had a great time with our tour guide Van. He was a very lovely guy who we had a great 2 hours with. He showed us around the main sights in HCM and gave us some nice tips for coffee, shopping and more afterwards. Our tour was a group of 4 which also was a great size for a walking tour and we all had the chance to ask our questions. We also really appreciated that Van had a microphone because sometimes the HCM city traffic was very loud and thanks to the microphone we could still hear everything. Would recommend this tour with Van 100%. Thank you again, Van :)

So much fun and very tasty food!!

It was an awesome tour round Ho Chi Min centre. The guide talk about so many interesting things so I really have not heard about the city.
