        Gotta do the river cruise
        The river cruise was definitely worth it, great atmosphere with some great music and culture shows. The food was good, service was ok but just being out on the water was a great night with the lights as well

        Half day tour of Cu Chi Tunnels.
        Highly recommend this tour company. It was easy to book and we had free hotel pickup and drop off. Our transport was almost brand new and the air conditioning worked beautifully. Our guide was knowledgable and also entertaining. The Cu Chi Tunnels are a "not to be missed" excursion while in Ho Chi Minh city and Deluxe Group tours made it the best possible experience.

        Was a lovely experience
        Pick up and drop off from our hotel went smoothly. Nice big boat with heaps of people. We had the set menu whilst others on the boat had the buffet. I enjoyed most of the meals, desert was a shared bowl of some strange fruit, like a lychee. I believe we paid the same price as the buffet customers who got a lot more food and had greater selection than us. The entertainment was a bit limited as there were multiple levels of the boat so the singers had to get everywhere. Was very hot on board, they could have used some air conditioning, luckily we were near a balcony. The sights were great and the city was lit up. I asked for some ice to put in my wine and was given a piece about the size of small can of soft drink, it barely fit in the glass but cooled my drink and gave us a laugh.

        Worse dinner cruise on Saigon River in 7 years
        Called this the deluxe cruise! This makes me laugh... In 2019January I was on the Saigon Princess for the Dinner cruise and that dinner cruise out shined the one I was just on. The one in January 2019 was raining so hard that we could not depart the dock and had the dinner while tied up to the dock and entertainment there. There was also dancing on the floor.. This dinner cruise was "the worse " I have be on in Saigon in my 7 years of coming here... The boat had no motor running, used a tug boat to guide it up and down the river... The entertainment stopped playing and disappeared when the boat left the shore... As for the dinner! I am allergic to shellfish and was reading the tags for the food and ended up with fried rice that had baby shrimp in the rice and was not listed on the tag to alert the customers that are allergic... Good thing I brought my allergy medication!!! you could have had a huge problem on your hands....

        Great tour, very interactive
        This is a great Mekong Delta tour with frequent stops to try local foods and see how people live along the river. My tour guide, Fully, is a great source of information, with enthusiasm, good stories and good insights. His English is great, he’s easy to understand and, as a bonus, he’s also funny.

      I booked the tour to avoid having to brave the stressful traffic (i.e. crossing the roads), while I would have normally walked it around all by myself. The tour was well and efficiently organised to visit the main sites in HCMC. I was picked up on time from my hotel. The guide was friendly and spoke good english, while providing helpful information around the sites. I would have liked to spend a lot more time at the War Remnants museum, which deserves a good 2-3 hours on its own, although rather intense considering the materials displayed, it may be more adequate to have a couple of visits anyway, the entry fee is not expensive at all. Very pleased overall.

      Booked the tour on our 2nd morning in HCMC and Timothy who was our guide was very enthusiastic and informative and it was a great introduction to this busy and amazing city. He clearly new his subject and was cheerful and engaging. We had the added advantage of being just my wife and myself on the tour so had a more personal and relaxed guided tour. It was a half day well spent and being in the morning it was not too hot.

      My husband and I did this tour today with our brilliant guide “Japan”. We were met promptly in our hotel foyer by Japan who then walked us to our minivan. We picked up one other person and then set off on the tour.
      The tour hits all the key spots in the city and Japan also mentioned a number of other landmarks as we drove past them. He provided expert commentary on all of the places we visited and left us a good amount of time at each one to explore.
      I would highly recommend this tour!

      Had an experienced guide in Ms Phung - has been a guide for 20+ years.

      We visited the War Remembrance Museum and were given a short briefing before we start. The Reunification Palace visit was very informative. The Notre Dame cathedral is being renovated but the architecture design of the Central Post Office was well explained by the guide.

      Ended at Ben Thanh Market at around 5pm.

      Very informative tour, war museum was very interesting but sombre for the first day in Saigon. Showed all sides of a horrific war though. Probably stayed in the presidents Palace for a bit too long, personal preference though. Timothy the guide had good knowledge and enthusiasm and the trip was well worth. Good half day experience.

      A full morning to great sights and Vietnamese culture. I booked the tour the evening before and was promptly picked up at my hotel the following morning. I was surprised to learn I was the only guest on the tour. My tour guide was Vin. He is very knowledge of all the stops and sights on the tour schedule. I can't give one site that I liked the most because they were all very interesting. I suppose the Independence Place was the most impressive site. If you book this tour you will have a very nice morning.
