Ladies scooter tour

An easy activity to organise and it far exceeded our expectations. Lovely tour guides and we all felt very safe navigating around the city. We learnt lots of interesting facts and saw heaps in our 2 hr tour. Good value for money.

It was a good memory.

Annie, I learned a lot and enjoyed it. I went on the tour knowing very little about Vietnam's history, but the children understood because they taught me very carefully. They took me to places I hadn't seen in guidebooks, and I'm very happy. If you have another chance, I would like to see you. It was a good memory. Thank you very much.

Exciting

Anthony was timely and drove me on his motorbike on this tour. It was a really fun way to see Saigon at night. Seeing the Saigon River was the best part. He also provided at meal at a clean restaurant.
