We had an amazing experience on my tour with Hái! He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire experience enjoyable. His passion for the local culture really stood out, and he shared fascinating stories and facts that made the tour so much more interesting. Hái was attentive to everyone in the group, always ready to answer questions and personalize the experience. We left with a deeper understanding and appreciation of the area. I highly recommend booking a tour with Hái – you won’t be disappointed!

We had a fantastic day exploring the Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta as a family of five! Our guide, Nick, was absolutely brilliant, friendly, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable. He made the whole experience engaging and enjoyable for everyone. Boo Boo, our driver, was excellent too - safe, smooth driving and always ready with a smile and a dance. The VIP tour bus was super comfortable and made the journey really relaxing between stops. Everything ran perfectly on time, and we got to see and do so much without ever feeling rushed. Highly recommend this tour — it was one of the highlights of our Vietnam trip!

First time experiencing a show while eating, there are many traditional Vietnamese musical instruments on stage, which I've never seen in Taiwan. The two-hour performance was worth the ticket price.

Across from the Saigon Zoo, upon entering the store, staff will introduce you to the services offered and ask if you would like to add the Korean sauna for an extra charge.

Among the many massage places in Vietnam, this one has a great experience. The massage process is very relaxing, and the store environment is very good. I will come again next time.
