"I really love what Chris, Dao, and the Third Culture team are doing. I got to see parts of Saigon that I would not have with my family who I was visiting with. I think it was really significant to me having Vietnamese Americans, who have found a home in Vietnam, to speak with and get their thoughts on history, life, and culture. Additionally, the Vietnamese guides were also wonderful, knowledgeable, and so open to sharing their insights, which added additional depth to the tour. The good food and getting to know the local spots was a bonus!"

"Great selection of places! It's funny that I've been around many of those places before but it reasonable to expect someone who might have travelled often to HCMC to be around. I appreciated being around those areas with our tour group! It was like going in with a different perspective."

"The crew at Third Culture Vietnam took us on an intimate and memorable food tour around Saigon. The guides ate with us and taught us a lot about the city and the country. Every dish I tried was one I haven't seen on a menu abroad before and tasted amazing. They really made me feel like a local for a day."

"I really liked the tour because we went to places I probably would not have seen if I explored the city on my own. I learned a lot about the cultural history of Saigon and each spot had a distinct purpose that added to that experience."
