Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We’ve done quite some Withlocals tours, and - no offense to the other guides - Thien was the best guide we’ve ever had! She is amazing and the tour was great. We didn’t go to the standard tunnels but she brought us to the less known and less touristic part of Cu Chi. One word: amazing!"
"Huyen was an outstanding guide. She was kind, professional, knowledgeable, and made us feel like we were part of her community from the very beginning. She shared fascinating insights about Vietnamese culture, traditions, and values, while also taking a genuine interest in learning about our own cultures and beliefs. Our conversations were meaningful, and she always listened with respect and an open mind. We even discussed sensitive topics such as war. As someone from the United States and with Huyen being from Vietnam, I truly appreciated how she approached these conversations with honesty, empathy, and mutual respect. It made the experience even more memorable and meaningful. I highly recommend Huyen to anyone looking for an authentic and engaging tour. I would absolutely choose another tour with her in the future. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!"
"High energy, so knowledgeable and proud of everything she shows. I can not recomend her enough. Book her for the tunnels. Coffee. Food. All of it was fantastic. She is amazing!"
"Hieu was fantastic - really gave us insight into real Ho Ch Minh, along with tourist sights sprinkled in. We have not stopped thinking about what he showed us!! Great English and a super person. "
"From the second we met Jecky, he was one of the gang. Felt like we knew him forever. Friendly, personable, kind, knowledgeable. I would not hesitate for a second to book another tour with him. He was also solid in communicating before the tour, while planning it. Thanks for a great day. "
"I booked my tour to CuChi Tunnels with Huyen and it was a great experience. Huyen filled the two hour trip from Saigon with loads of history specific to the site, as well and pointing out little details of surroundings along the way. On the trip back we even got a cafe sua da for refreshment. Huyens smile on her profile paints the perfect picture of her cheerful personality, as well as her kind and thoughtful vibe. I highly recommend booking a tour with her. I will surely be booking her for another fact filled fun tour with her during my next trip to Saigon!! Thanks Huyen!!!"
"Cảm ơn Huyen và Sống, I had a great day with Huyen and she was able to be friendly and insightful about the history of Saigon and Cu Chi, Huyen was thoughtful and helpful with understanding the intricacies of the history of Saigon. Highly recommend Huyen "
"We absolutely loved our tour of Saigon with Huyen! I'm half-Vietamese and this was my first time visiting Saigon, where my mother is from. So it was important to me to have a private tour with a really personable and knowledgeable guide to show us around. I love that Withlocals allows you to choose your own guide, rather than being paired randomly with someone. As I was reading through the profiles and reviews, I knew I wanted a tour with Huyen and am so glad I chose her! She was so kind, fun, energetic, and funny! It really felt like we were just hanging out with a friend! She’s very knowledgeable and explained things to us so well about the culture and history of Vietnam. We love learning about history, but there can definitely be difficult things to hear about Vietnam’s history, particularly pertaining to the war. But Huyen presented things in a very factual manner and was careful to check in and ask if we were comfortable with her continuing to speak on certain things or not. I appreciated her always being very considerate throughout the tour, even making sure to find spots where we could sit for a bit or finding shade to stay cooler while she gave us backstory on the places we were visiting. I also appreciated how she worked with us beforehand to customize our tour to our interests and try to see as much as possible with the time we had. We loved our tour - I only wish we had booked a full day because the half-day went quick and it would have been so wonderful to have Huyen show us around even more parts of the city. Would not hesitate to book her again in the future and would highly recommend her!!"
"Thien was very friendly, engaging and a knowledgeable guide. She has so many interesting stories, with information and history about Saigon. She has such passion and it shows. We loved our tour and highly recommend Thien, she is one of the best tiur guides we have had! "
"Thien is such an incredible guide!!!!!!! Absolutely book a tour with her if you’re ever in Ho Chi Minh City/Saigon. She has a great grasp of English and she’s an incredible conversationalist. She’ll be able to answer any questions you might have about anything and everything in Vietnam. She’s also very funny and had us laughing throughout the day. We started the tour by adding a breakfast banh mi and cafe for coffee which were both very tasty. We then headed to the tunnels where she offered a very in depth explanation of the history behind the tunnels, she even got a guide to accompany us at the tunnels which accentuated the tour quite a bit. We also added the gun range to close off the tour which was quite invigorating. Thanks for making our trip very memorable, Thien!"
