Dong - Tour Guide in Ho Chi Minh City

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

Quan and Andy were both excellent guides, especially as Andy had only been here a few weeks. They were extremely knowledgeable and were able to answer all my questions. Their English is exceptional. It was a thorough tour of the city with suggestions for further visits during my stay here. I would highly recommend them. Thank you both.

Response from Dong

It’s wonderful that you appreciated their knowledge and recommendations for exploring more of Saigon.

Gostamos muito do Johnson levou por sítios que sozinhoa era difícil. Começamos com uma banana com arroz pegajoso e leite de coco, depois um bao com ovo, um Banh mi e por fim um crepe frito em meia lua com vegetais. Tudo em bancas de comida diferentes. Obrigado Johnson

Response from Dong
Thank you so much, Tiago! 🌟 We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring the hidden local food spots with Johnson! It’s wonderful that you loved the variety of dishes — from the banana sticky rice to the savory bánh mì and crispy crepe. Johnson always aims to show authentic street food gems that travelers wouldn’t easily find on their own. Your kind words mean a lot to him and to our whole team. Hope to see you again soon for another flavorful adventure in Saigon! 💛
