We are lucky to join business training in Vietnam; the time is good for us. Therefore we check some tour online, ume travel arranged for us. We spent 2 days on this tour. What a pleasant trip! The first day we take boat cruise and have a look the local village, it is peaceful time. We visited local workshop, where you can see how to make coconut candy etc local snack. The fruit taste good! The second day, we visits main attractions in Ho Chi Minh city, nothing special for me.

Kyler

We were very pleased with our time with our guide in Saigon from the moment we met until the end of our day. She was hospitable, knowledgeable and accommodating with our desire to see specifics offerings. She spoke amazing English and was easy to communicate to. Our driver was also amazing and was exactly where he needed to be at the right time. So very much appreciated! We enjoyed the War Museum, Cu Chi Tunnels, Mekong Delta and the shopping areas. The food experience was exactly what we had requested. Well done!
