I booked the 4-hour tour for my first and third days. Although my flight was delayed and I kept them waiting, they greeted me kindly without showing any annoyance. Since it was a completely private tour, they efficiently guided us wherever we wanted to go when we told them our preferences. They showed us where to exchange money and explained the history and culture at various stops, which was very educational! Additionally, they helped us immensely by recommending great restaurants and taking our photos. Since it's hard to figure out how to use apps like Grab without actually trying them, I was really glad I booked the tour on the first day so I could ask all sorts of questions. I especially recommend this to anyone traveling to Vietnam for the first time! Thank you so much, Hue, for taking care of us during the two-day tour!

Our tour guide was Mavis, and she took us to the iconic spots and was also very kind! She’s knowledgeable and shared valuable Vietnamese customs with us as well. We enjoyed it and will book again next time when we go back to Vietnam!

My friend and I precooked this tour prior to entering Vietnam and it ended up being even better than we thought it would. Our guide Thao is a super lovely lady who is very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. If have a day and want to pack in seeing several sights I would highly recommend booking this tour.
