Tam, Thanks for very friendly tour provided for us. We enjoyed it every much! Well done!
Tam hosted us in HCMC for city tour with lunch included. We enjoyed her company very much and felt like we've known her for long time. Very good English and able to explain to us in details of their culture. Due to the hot weather when we were there, we made some adjustment to our itinerary, loved the flexibility. Before the trip, she provided very insightful details of HCMC for us as tips.
Highly recommended for those who prefer personalised city tour. Cheers!
I felt instantly comfortable with Tam, she is one of the most
easygoing, open and joyful persons I've met.
After a quick view of the post office we went to a nearby park
where there are lots of local youths and spent some time
talking about everything vietnamese and how it compares to other
countries, supported by delicious streetfood.
Highly recommended.
We had a great time. Seeing the city and talking about life in Ho Chi Minh was fascinating. I highly recommend.Tam's English is very good.
Tam is a very friendly and knowledgeble tour guide.She can explain the history and culture well and able to speak fluent english. She brought us to cu chi tunnel and city tour by local public transport.Also we tried local famous food at Ben Thanh market. Overall, we spent a joyful and quality time with her.If you are visiting Ho Chi Minh, I highly recommend you contacting Tam for her tour. Her response in email is prompt too :)
I met her in front of Notre Dame Cathedral. We went to Saigon Central Post Office and Quoc Tu Pagoda. Tam is easygoing, positive, and joyful person!
We enjoyed the street foods, and visited very local spots where local hang out in the evening.
On the day we visited Quoc Tu Pagoda, it was the birthday of Buddha. There were so many people, and full of the smell of incense. We could climb up the top floor of the pagoda, which is not open usually.
If you want to dive into real local life in Saigon, why don't you ask Tam!
Tam is so helpful and open-mind!
She bring me and my friends to the park next to Notre Dame Cathedral Saigon. We drunk Vietnamese coffee and tea. In the park, many young local people enjoyed talking. It was a strange view for me.
Then we went to Vietnamese noodle restaurant not in guide book. I was glad to eat it. I love local food. Talking about culture and lifestyle between Japan and Vietnam together was very interesting. It's a unique and special experience for us.
If you want to explore and experience authentic local life in Ho Chi Minh City, I highly recommend you contacting Tam!!
