What travelers say 4.9 (3,091 reviews)

Our guide was absolutely fantastic! They brought so much energy and humor to the whole experience. We learned so much about the local culture and history that we would never have discovered on our own. Highly recommend Saigon Adventure to anyone visiting!

Taking this tour was the best decision we made on our trip. Our guide didn't just feel like a tour guide, but like a local friend showing us around their city. Their English was excellent, and they made sure everyone was comfortable and having fun.

I cannot say enough good things about our guide. Their knowledge of the area was incredibly impressive, and they answered all our questions with so much patience. They took us to some amazing hidden spots. A truly 5-star experience!

Everything from the booking process to the actual tour was seamless. What really made it special was our incredible guide. They were so attentive, ensuring we were safe and engaged the entire time. It felt very authentic and far from a typical tourist trap.

If you book with Saigon Adventure, you are in great hands! You can really tell how passionate the guides are about sharing their culture. Our guide went above and beyond to make our day special, sharing personal stories that made the culture come alive.

This experience ended up being the absolute highlight of our vacation! Our guide was exceptional—funny, polite, and so knowledgeable. They paced everything perfectly so we never felt rushed. I would book with them again in a heartbeat.

Full Description

Discover Tay Ninh Province: A Journey Through History and Beauty

Located approximately 90km northwest of Ho Chi Minh City, Tay Ninh province is a great addition to your cu chi tunnel tour. While many visitors to Vietnam are familiar with the extensive Cu Chi Tunnels, fewer know about the historical and cultural significance of the stunning Black Mountain and the Cao Dai temples nearby. These sites hold a special place in the hearts of the Vietnamese people, having been revered for centuries. A visit to Vietnam is incomplete without exploring these beautiful and meaningful treasures.

Nui Ba Den (The Mountain of the Black Virgin): This majestic mountain, covered in lush greenery, rises 3,000 feet above the rice fields and jungle, often shrouded in clouds. Pilots who have flown over Black Mountain describe a unique and powerful aura that it exudes.
