5.00Absolutely 💯 our guide Duy Anh (Tony) taught us so much so then we were confident to discover Saigon on our own after the night. The water puppet show was great. But the dinner was not our favorite.

5.00We had a terrific experience in Ho Chi Minh City with Tony as our guide. He coordinated with the driver and made our travel in the City easy. My wife and I would recommend him to anyone wanting to see the City highlights.

5.00The Puppet Show is truly amazing. Although narrated in Vietnamese you will understand the actions. A phenomenal skill by the puppeteers to put this show on. Well worth it. Dinner afterwards was well worth it to see the wonderful lights of the city.
I would avoid this

3.00We had a very good driver. We had a good tour guide. We had poor seats for the puppet show. The dinner on the boat was absolutely terrible. We arrive late for dinner. Everything on the buffet had been picked over and was cold no one came to take our drink order. The boat right itself was not bad.
Fantastic tour and tour guide Tony

5.00What a fantastic tour. The water puppets were really good. Not too long 45 mins. The music and the puppets was really bright in colour. Even though it was all in Vietnamese it was still easy to follow. The next part was the dinner cruise and entertainment. Food was excellent. I don't each chili or any spicy food and there was so much too choose from. As much as you like. However the highlight was the tour guide Tony. He was excellent. So informative. My cousin and asked him lots of questions about Vietnam and he knew so much about the history. He looked after us so well. I recommend Tony's tours to anyone. He is so personable.
Best night ever !!!

5.00Very competent remarks on the private tour. deep insights into the culture. The water puppet show was great. From the dinner cruise you have a great view at night. The quality of the food was good but not sufficient (buffet) available. We are looking forward to the next tour with Tony.
A Great Adventure
