The Off The Beaten Track tour of Ho Chi Minh was incredible. Riding the streets and seeing so many places we would never have known about was a one-of-a-kind experience. Dung was the best tour guide, taking us to drink tea, eat banh mi, telling us the history and stories and seeing beautiful views of the city. His love of the city shone through.

Awesome tour!! I thought it would be scary riding amongst the traffic, but it was truly so fun and safe with my guide. I saw so many incredible parts of the city that I had never heard of before, and my guide did a great job of explaining the history. Highly recommend!!

We generally don’t go on tours - in our experience, most are just promoting unsustainable practices. However, this tour was extremely educational and eye opening! Here is a bit of what we’ve learned - The floating markets in this area used to be a vital part of the local economy. However, as trade moved to land, the need for floating markets and their role changed- becoming wholesale only, leaving those smaller businesses (such as boat drivers) behind. This is where (sustainable) tourism has a place, as our guide pointed out by saying “we are their product now”, highlighting the fact that tourism does play a part in keeping tradition alive - example being the lovely boat driver that moved us through the small canals and thought us how to make traditional straw toys. All without speaking English or us speaking Vietnamese.

What a fabulous tour with Julie!
She took us to 4 great little places, each with their own character, style and delicious cocktail.
She shared very open stories of life, culture and social sides of Vietnam. We have travelled through Vietnam many times and this was great for any new or returning travellers

Amazing experience!! Pur tour guide was great and very informative. Loved the activity and I am happy we have chosen to so this instead of a trip to Mekong Delta.

Great experience! We enjoyed our ride through the vibrant city. Is was a truly adventure but our guide lead us safely through the traffic.
We have seen a lot of places which we would have not seen without this great bike tour. Thank you!

What a cool experience. It was truly off the beaten path and my tour guide was so friendly and thoughtful. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed exploring areas that are not usually visited by tourists, and experiencing local traditions. The history of Chinatown was particularly interesting, meeting some locals and understanding the importance of the temples.
Our guide, Ti, was excellent. He navigated us safely through the traffic and gave us great insight into the city. Our questions were welcomed.
Recommend this tour if you want to have a break from the shops and get a deeper understanding of Saigon. Nothing like cycling to immerse yourself in the city
