Great to meet you, I'm Binh. I founded a local student team of well-trained, knowledgeable, and passionate co-hosts, including Emmie, Hani, Lily, Tracy, Den, Bob, Daniel, and others, to run unique scooter-based experiences that you can't do on your own I first discovered Saigon while studying at University after leaving my hometown in rural Vietnam. I immediately became fascinated by the city's unique blend of culture, history, and delicious cuisine. My education focused on tourism, and I have six years of experience as a tour guide.
