Dong

Hello and Xin Chao! I'm Dong, or you can call me Vera, your expert tour guide in the beating heart of Ho Chi Minh City. In the 18 intensive years since 2005, I have not only experienced the city's dynamic change, but also embraced it. Known for my warm, friendly demeanor, I warmly welcome travelers who want to take an authentic journey through the enchanting corners of Saigon. My roots are deeply connected to Vietnamese culture, I was born in Tien Giang, with a mother from Ninh Binh and a father from the Mekong Delta, and embody the essence of Vietnam's cultural mosaic. Beyond guiding, I am a culinary explorer and bring insider knowledge of Vietnam's diverse and delicious cuisine. Join me on a journey to discover the stories, flavors and wonders of Ho Chi Minh City.

Zoe was very personable and super informative about Saigon on this tour. She’s patient with the route in a busy city too! Really appreciate the trial of Vietnamese coffees and also the sweet little gift at the end. Cam on! :)

Vera è una ragazza molto carina e dai modi educati. La sua passione per la cittá di Ho Chi Minh è evidente nel suo racconto e trasmette tanta passione. Ci ha dedicato una canzone nazionale tipica ed è molto brava anche a cantare e la sua emozione è vibrante. Eravamo solo in quattro nel suo tour e ci ha dedicato grande attenzione. Grazie ancora e scegliete lei!! ❤️

I had booked a walking tour two days ago with Guru Joseph, but unfortunately he notified me two hours before the tour for personal reasons. Later Joseph suggested that I book a tour with Guru Dong, two days later. The tour was scheduled for 9 am, Dong moved the tour from 9 am to 3 pm only two hours before the appointment, without asking me to confirm; since I had to take the plane to leave Saigon in the afternoon, I could not enjoy the city tour, ruining the final experience here in Vietnam. The rating 1 is for the terrible and poor organization. I remember that the FREE walking tour was born as a voluntary association to make people aware of the culture and traditions of the country, without expecting tips or suggesting how much to leave as a tip. Total speculation.

The tour started on time.Dong was excellent sharing her knowledge and made everyone inclusive. She spoke clearly about her personal experiences and love for the country and city. At the end she shared us in some amazing ways to help going around Saigon and places of interest. A super guru guide.
