      Fun and informative
      I loved zipping around Saigon with Sang, who was an amazing ambassador for his city and tour guide. The ride itself is really fun! I had absolute confidence in Sang. He listened to what I wanted to do and then took me to several places to see/tour. He provided a lot of information and was very pleasant and thoughtful. He even followed up with me after the tour to suggest places that I’d asked about. They provide a helmet, which is definitely wear. Thought I didn’t see a single accident — or even a near miss.

      Amazing! Do not miss
      Amazing! We were both a little apreneshive given what could happen but our guides could not be faulted. They spoke perfect English and quickly put us at ease. Your are provided with a helmet. You are advised not to take expensive items out in the evening but do not worry they take a camera out for you. Note you might see rats!

      The only way to see Saigon HCMC
      Only had a couple of days in HCMC. Booked a morning city tour for our family , 2 teenage daughters. We had Leah and Sang as main tour guides. Would have felt overwhelmed and daunted with out their informative caring introduction to this amazing city. I could ask Leah anything whilst travelling on the back of her bike. Her knowledge of the history of their country is amazing and her English impeccable First lesson was how to cross a road safely snd confidently .. never looked back and fabulous to know at the beginning of our 2 week holiday We had plenty of time to be shown the sights, taken to Chinese Pagoda off the beaten track.. amazing place. Talking about the history of Vietnam and life today helped us get a understanding of the whole country which was invaluable for our travels through Vietnam . So much better than reading a history book! Introduced to Vietnamese coffee.. never looked back Would highly recommend you book this tour as soon as you arrive in HCMC. They are safe drivers, beautiful people and all could speak amazing English . Chose this group as they donate items to a few different charities . We all loved this experience and were so pleased that we did this the day after we arrived Booked the next day with this company Would have liked to have done all their tours if we had the time They also take photos for you so you don’t have to think about that. They send them after the trip Amazing

      Great way to see HCMC
      We did the backroads tour as a family with two teens. Our four drivers/guides were great - locals, enthusiastic, friendly and engaging. And safe drivers! We worked our way across several districts, taking in a huge variety of sights and getting the local insights and perspective. We stopped for drinks (coffee, sugar cane juice and more) and lots of photos! Highly recommend this is a way of seeing HCMC - it’s a big place and this way you see a bit of everything.

      An amazing food tour with i Tour Vietnam in Ho Chi Minh city at night...
      An unique experience by sitting on the back of a scooter..hop-on and hop-off to different food stops around several districts. My rider Thai Thao Vy is a lovely young lady who is doing this job as part time, she is studying and teaching English too, I am still in touch with Vy. i Tour Vietnam is highly recommended, they are very professional and have a good local knowledge. Alexis Ly, the owner of the company joined us to the tour, thanks Alexis, Vy and the team for organising such a memorable tour.

      Cu Chi tunnel & HCMC tour
      Excellent & highly recommendable! Sang & Quan were excellent tour guides...cannot help but appreciate their patience and cooperation to our whams & wishes. We had a great time in the tunnels —excellent & intellegent guys in explaining about Vietnam history during the war; so informative guys, the same thing with the tunnel assisstant who let us into as many tunnels as we can. Oh boy, that was history in front of us; i can say the Viets were so brilliant coming up with this tunnels as war strategy. They also encouraged us to do the firing and thank God I tried coz that was one of my highlights in this tour. HCMC is as exciting as well especially the scooter ride! That was just a wow! Well done guys! Keep up the good work! Thanks heaps. Agnes & Annie

      Beyond Expectations
      Our guide, Leah, met our group of 7 at Nha Rong Port as arranged. We spent an amazing 7 hours visiting the main attractions/highlights as promised in our itinerary. Also we visited a hidden Pagoda in Chinatown which we never would have found on our own! A walk through the large local market was great. And the mini fun cooking course at a local outlet was a definite highlight! Afterwards, we enjoyed our own cooking along with a local beer or soda. Leah was so professional, personable and caring. We never felt that we had to hurry along when visiting a site, and Leah always ensured we new the meeting time and place.

      Excellent tour. Would highly recommend itvn
      We took a private day tour (there were about 6 of us) of Ho Chi Minh city with i Tour Vietnam. The tour was fantastic... Our guide, Leah, was extremely knowledgeable and interesting.. and very engaging. She took us to some very interesting spots, including a hidden Chinese Pagoda and a small restaurant where we were able to help cook our own Vietnamese pancakes. The lunch restaurant was authentic and yummy. Two things I especially liked about itvn is (a) they include a photographer who stays with you the entire tour and then sends all the guests a link to the photos which we can download (how wonderful is that!); and (b) a portion of the proceeds of our tour goes to several charities... and we can choose the one we want (school supplies for disadvantaged kids was one such charity)... I highly recommend itvn and would use them again if (hopefully... when) I go back to Viet Nam

      Excellent Tour
      We did a 5 hour tour of Ho Chi Minh City with our guide Leah and intern Sophie. We cant speak more highly of our guide who was delightful and knew her stuff. Sophie was also very enthusiastic. Both of them spoke excellent English. We packed a lot of sites into the relatively small amount of time we had as we were on a cruise ship. Our tour was by car as we did not want to go on the back of motorbikes but we still got to experience the real Ho Chi Minh City . Every effort was made to ensure we had a good time, with nice little touches. The local food was a real hit! Would certainly recommend this tour, especially to those coming in by ship as the price was a lot better than that offered on board.

      Worth Every Penny
      Why do a tour with a group where you are always waiting for others or missing something you wanted to see? Itours are personal, with just you and your guide. I did the Mekong Delta and Cu Chi tours and Sang, my guide, was pleasant, friendly and very knowledgeable. I couldn't have been more pleased with the level of service and time spent on the trips. While this company may charge more than others, it was money well spent and I highly recommend them. Thank you!

    We booked this tour because we wanted to taste the flavors of Ho Chi Minh City and we got so much more. We were able to arrange a pick-up at our cruise terminal and our guide, Leah, took advantage of the time to tell us so much about the area and history of HCM. Once we reached the market area, Leah took us from place to place, explaining about the food and all the sights we were seeing. At our request, we combined the food tour with a general tour so we were able to see the top spots of the city before delving into the market. Even with the numerous closures due to the New Year celebrations, we were treated to Pho, Vietnamese pancakes, spring rolls, crab in a clay pot, a Vietnamese flan dessert, and coffee.Everything was delicious! Leah kept us learning the whole time and our conversation never wavered.She helped us shop in the market and get good prices on a few things to take home. The pictures she took and shared are amazing and the memories will last a lifetime. I can't express enough what a wonderful day this was and what a wonderful person Leah is. Thank you!

    This night food tour was splendid! This is an experience one should not miss. The food were authentic and unpretentious yet delicious! Loved the Vietnamese pancake/crepe. Leah, my guide, was great, informative and fun to be with! Highly recommended and will definitely book another tour if I'm back at HCMC.

    This was a great tour! With only 2 days in Ho Chi Minh we wanted to eat and see as much as possible in a short time, and this was a great add in to our trip! The food was great and explained in great detail by our guides Swang and Quan. We were also told cool facts as we drive between the different restaurants both about the food and the city. So above and beyond my expectations. And the cherry on top was the donation a part of the fee went towards helping local children or people. Such a great idea! I will definitely do this tour again if I come back!

    This night food tour on the back of a motorbike is excellent! There were four in our group and we had the best time. We're all big people so were a bit worried how the 40kg riders would cope, but wow - they were fantastic. They drove us around Saigon during the night time traffic like pros - I felt completely safe and comfortable the whole time. The food was amazing. Our first stop was a local eatery specialising in pork sausage and spring roll noodles. They were hot, delicious and plentiful. To pace myself, I only ate a small portion. My husband and friends got carried away and almost finished their bowls, which they totally regretted. Next we tried rice rolls - like I've never eaten before. These were my favourites - I won't say too much, as I don't want to spoil the element of surprise. We then rode on to a Vietnamese crepe place - wow. They came with fresh greens and sauces - we even got to try our hand at making them. They matched beautifully with the local beer. Finally, we tried a selection of Vietnamese deserts - they were a mix of jelly and coconut creams and juices - we loved them. At the end of the tour our drivers delivered us safe and sound back to our hotel. Although we were full to bursting, we were all sad it was over - the tine flew by. A great bunch of young guides, and a very exciting and flavour-filled night on the town! Well worth the price.
