The whole experience was excellent. My driver’s name was Happy, she was very friendly and brought me to lots of great food spots. It was great to hangout with other tourists from different parts of the world and bond over great food. The other guides on the tour were also very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed as we ate. Especially Tan. The beef moddle stew was the best thing I’ve eaten in Vietnam so far. I didnt have enough cash on me for a proper tip, and I felt they really deserved one, so if you’re going on the trip and are a tipping kind of person don’t forget to check you’ve the right amount with you like I did.

We had a wonderful trip with kris and Lexi a week or so ago and can definitely recommend. The traffic in Saigon is crazy so I was a bit nervous about being on a Vespa but after 10-15 mins or so I really relaxed into it. Lexi was a very safe and lovely driver and was telling me info as we zoomed around the city. We made a number of stops around the city taking in areas we would never have gone to and dishes we would never have ordered. A really highlight of our trip to Ho Chi Minh and I would recommend this to anyone visiting the city.

Superb - Great family fun. Riders/Guides were very safe in the controlled chaos of the HCM traffic and took us to different districts and food outlets that you simply couldn't walk between. Our guides/riders and all around legends were - Kelly, Jack, Daniel & Paul Loved this experience

Kris was a fantastic host. He arrived at my hotel with ample time to formally meet and explain the evenings activities. He ensured I understood safety requirements for the motor bike and also for the rainy weather conditions. His knowledge of the local districts and the history helped make the tour even more interesting than I imagined. Warning- there’s so much food! Don’t eat lunch when you plan this or you’ll be stuffed!

Great way to explore the food districts of HCMC. Kris our guide was brilliant. His knowledge of the food and people were second to none. He kept us safe crossing streets and kept our bellies full. Ask him about his pet roster, that’s a story!
