Golden Dragon Water Puppet Theatre tours

The water puppet show was unique and fascinating, offering a great introduction to traditional Vietnamese culture. The performance was lively, colorful, and accompanied by live music, which made it even more engaging even if you don’t fully understand the language. After the show, the dinner cruise was a perfect way to relax. The atmosphere on the boat was lovely, with nice views of the city at night. The food was decent, with a variety of Vietnamese dishes to try. While it may not be a fine dining experience, it was still enjoyable and added to the overall experience. Overall, this is a great combination for anyone who wants to experience local culture and enjoy a scenic evening in Ho Chi Minh City. Easy booking on Klook and well-organized. Worth trying! 🥰🙆‍♀️🥰

I honestly don’t think I could thank Davis and the driver enough for this experience. From the moment we were picked up, they made us feel genuinely special and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect for our evening. The water puppet show was incredibly entertaining and such a unique cultural experience, while the cruise itself was peaceful, relaxing, and paired with absolutely delicious food. Everything flowed so smoothly and felt thoughtfully organised from start to finish. It ended up being such a memorable evening and one we’ll be talking about for a long time.

This full-day excursion was such a blast and easily one of the highlights of our trip! We had an amazing time exploring both the Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta. Everything was well organized, informative, and fun, and we felt safe and comfortable throughout the entire day. There were so many little experiences included along the way. We had multiple food tastings, rest stops, and plenty of opportunities to grab coffee, snacks, and souvenirs without ever feeling rushed or pressured. At the Mekong Delta, we especially loved trying the different coconut samples and seeing how coconut is used in so many different ways. Our tour guide, Johnny, was amazing! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience enjoyable He kept the day engaging from start to finish. I would absolutely recommend this tour to tourists or anyone interested in learning more about Vietnamese history, culture, and local life. You get to experience so much in one day, and it was 100% worth it!

We participated in this motorcycle tour this afternoon with Katee and Flower. They patiently waited for us in the hotel lobby and enthusiastically helped us handle an emergency, which took about ten extra minutes. They were extremely patient. This type of travel allows you to experience local Vietnamese traffic and everyday life from the back of a bike. We visited the Ho Chi Minh City Post Office, Book Street, temples, and learned about the Vietnam War. The war section was truly shocking; regardless of whether the authorities were right or wrong, it is always the ordinary people who suffer. I hope the world will see fewer acts of plunder and aggression under various pretexts in the future. Afterward, we came to a very quaint coffee shop, where we had refreshing mango juice and snacks. Time flew by. Highly recommend this way of experiencing Vietnam! Thank you to our two guides. We were a bit pressed for time, but they were very patient and friendly, helping us out and chatting with us. A wonderful experience!

We had an outstanding day with Johnny tours in Mui Ne! we couldn’t fault them. from the easy communication to the legislation of our sleeper bus from HCM to Mui Ne to greet them. when we arrived it was directly from the tour office and were greeted and escorted to the office and given refreshments and details of the day. we had time to get lunch next door before heading off! First to the Fairy stream (they’re building a new bridge so lots of construction) where we strolled along nature in the shallow stream. When we finished we got a drink of choice before heading to the fishing village then the White Sands to do the optional activity of ATV ride up the dunes! do it! fantastic experience! the only thing we didn’t get as much time at was the red sands as time didn’t permit. the weather wasn’t on our side so we didn’t get a great sunset!! 😭. Back at the office we got our dinner (banh mi or rice dish) before heading back on another sleeper bus (3 rows this time so a bit tighter!)

Wow, what a fantastic experience, to sit on the back of a scooter and be part of the traffic, and not just watch it from the sidewalk. It felt very safe to ride with Tera and her friend. It was also a great pleasure to hear them, as locals, explain more about the sights we passed on the trip. Tera's story about Thich Quang Duc in particular touched me a lot. Thank you so much for teaching us a little about Ho Chi Minh Tera 🙏🇻🇳

One of the best tours to truly understand and appreciate Vietnam and how it has become what it is today. It took a long time for Vietnam to get to where it is now, and this tour provides valuable insight into that journey. The war remnants was heart-wrenching, and I couldn't finish looking through all the photos because they were incredibly heavy and heartbreaking. Despite the emotional experience, we had an amazing time during the tour. Be sure to bring cooling spray, water, and a fan to help you survive the Ho Chi Minh heat! A special thank you to our tour guide Cyta, who made this tour even more enjoyable. she was kind, knowledgeable, and shared so many stories about Vietnam's past, which made the experience much more meaningful. We really appreciate this type of tour arrangement compared to traditional travel agency tours. It allowed us to explore at our own pace while immersing ourselves in the local culture and daily life. It felt more personal, authentic, and enjoyable overall.

We visited the Independence Palace and War Remnants Museum with our guide Kevin. Both are fascinating and, in our view, must-sees in Ho Chi Minh City. The Independence Palace offers a fascinating insight into the Vietnam War, with its historic meeting and banquet rooms, communications rooms and underground bunker, as well as great views over the city. The War Remnants Museum, just a short walk away, is extremely powerful and visual, showing the devastating effects of war and the suffering and resistance of the Vietnamese people. Kevin was knowledgeable and flexible, allowing us time for drinks and snacks, which made the tour work very well even with a young child. Highly recommended.

The guide provided very detailed and patient explanations, looked after every guest, and was truly excellent. The entire itinerary was fantastic.
