While there were temples and markets of note, I most enjoyed the myriad streets and lanes and the life that is on display there.

I was nervous at first about traveling through the city traffic but our drivers and guide were so skilled at manoeuvring amongst the crowds that I quickly relaxed. This was the best fun and most insightful tour. We chose the China town option and just loved it.

Very enjoyable experience. The tour guide Anh was great. She picked us up at the hotel on time and my husband and I had such a fun time riding the cyclo around Chinatown areas. if you'd like to ride on the Cyclo but do not want to deal with Cyclo Scam use this tour.
