Ho Chi Minh City by night is a revelation, and my motorbike tour with Harry was the perfect way to experience it. Harry gets a resounding 5 stars! He was an incredible guide, expertly navigating the bustling streets while keeping our little group safe and entertained.
The tour itself was a fantastic mix of iconic sights and hidden gems. We zipped by the Burning Monk Site, a powerful reminder of Vietnamese history, and cruised past charming old apartment buildings. Hugo Coffee, tucked away on a corner street, quickly became my favorite stop - a hidden oasis of delicious coffee and local atmosphere. The vibrant flower market was a feast for the senses, and the broken rice Harry took us to was simply divine.
It became very clear throughout the tour that Harry is passionate about his city and loves sharing its secrets with visitors. His knowledge and enthusiasm were infectious, making the entire experience even more enjoyable.
A small tip: While the tour price might seem all-inclusive, it's important to remember that motorbike guides in Vietnam typically only receive a small portion of the overall cost. If you had a fantastic experience, as I did, considering a gratuity for your guide can go a long way in showing your appreciation and ensuring they're fairly compensated for their expertise and service.
This Saigon at Midnight motorbike tour is a must-do for anyone wanting to experience the electric energy of Ho Chi Minh City after dark. With Harry as your guide, it's an experience you won't forget.
