You may have joined a sightseeing tour and visited most tourist attractions in Ho Chi Minh city (Saigon). However, there is a hidden city in narrow alleyways behind the Saigon you see on crowded main roads in District 1.

#1: Visit THE MONUMENT OF A MONK who self-immolated to protest alleged persecution of Buddhists.

#2: Wander THE OLDEST APARTMENT BUILDING area in the city.

#3: Troll into the non-sleeping COLORFUL WHOLESALE FLOWER MARKET in narrow alleys.

#4: See strange things at a LOCAL WET MARKET.

  • A orientation to the back roads and different districts of Saigon.

    Tour guide Lily was wonderful. She was very personable and informative. She took me all over Saigon to see places I’ve never seen before. We even got a chance to have coffee in one of the historic family-owned coffee places in town. We even went through some back roads that tourists rarely see. This tour was well worth the money. Recommend.!

  • Great Tour

    The guides were so nice and helpful and they took us exactly to the places we wanted to see. The explanation about the places were interesting and the side talk live in the city also.

    We had two wonderful guides who spoke good English and knew the history of the city well. They brought us to interesting places and even adapted the tour to skip spots we had already been. And very fun (and safe) on the motorbikes!

  • The real Saigon by scooter!

    The guides were excellent and the tour felt very safe. We saw lots of out of the way places we wouldn’t have seen otherwise.
