About This Tour
You’ll have to wake up early for this tour... but it’s worth it. I’ll take you on a 3-hour walk I designed to capture the real Saigon, the one that’s alive and breathing only in the early morning. We’ll kick things off with my favorite local breakfast: a hearty bowl of noodles and dumplings, or slow-cooked beef stew... all from a home made by a lovely grandma. Next, we'll dive into the colorful chaos of the wet market (spoiler: it's not that wet), sampling juicy, exotic fruits at their freshest. Then it’s off to an 86-year-old coffee house, where the aunties will show you the old-school way of brewing coffee and tea. We’ll sip bold Vietnamese brews that'll charge you up for the day ahead. But that’s just the beginning. Ask me anything, or just walk in peace and snap some photos.. introverts are more than welcome. So, I’ll share stories, secrets, and hidden corners you won't find on Google, and make sure you leave a little more relaxed. What could go wrong? :)
