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. Let's create lasting memories together. See you in Saigon! 🌺

The tour with Johnson was really an experience! It was really nice to meet with him and enjoy the nightlife of the city. We met at a secret weapon bunker, which was also quite interesting for us to see, but the main part of our trip was street tour. There were only two of us, so we could really enjoy the tour and also ask a lot of questions about the district three and food in Sai Gon, but also about Viet Nam in general. It was a great experience and the food was amazing!

War eine Mega-Tour dank unseres Guide. (geschichtlich) unterhaltsam und kurzweilig. Eine der besten Touren, die wir je gemacht haben.

A mi amiga y a mi nos gustó mucho el tour. Aprendimos mucho sobre la historia de la ciudad. Da gusto ver las ganas que le pone el guía para ofrecer la mejor experiencia y conocimiento sobrea cultura. Un 10 el guía, de verdad, un encanto. Descubres los principales puntos de la ciudad y muchos aspectos de la cultura y de porque los vietnamitas son como son hoy en día. Muy recomendable!
