5.00Great experience with Trang with really informative spiels for the river. She was also super helpful for taking our photos. For an hour-long river cruise, this was great value for only 10 usd per head. They also serve drinks on board if youre feeling a little thirsty. This tour is great for families and anyone who likes a more cozy atmosphere for a tour.
Great and informative experience

5.00Boat ride was a great experience. Aaron, the guide, provided a lot of information not only about the important sights in Saigon, but about life in Vietnam overall.
Great explanation

5.00Such a fun moment on the river. Have done the big river cruises before in HCMC but this was a breath of fresh air seeing the same sites from a small boat, had no problems with photos from the full boat plus the crew and tour guide were absolutely lovely. Highly recommend this, especially if you are not a fan of large crowd tourism but are a fan of cold beer on a warm Ho Chi night. A+++ experience!
Perfect afternoon in Ho Chi Mihn

5.00We had a wonderful and informative tour. The local team was friendly, proactive and very helpful. We felt extraordinarily comfortable. When it started raining at the end of the tour, we received from the rain capes. We can highly recommend this rice as you get an extraordinary impression of the city.
