Han is an extraordinary tour guide - intelligent, professional, engaged, excellent English, and very knowledgeable and passionate about this amazing country. Be prepared for her to expose unexpected gems at any moment. I would highly recommend Han, without any reservation, for any of your tour needs in Vietnam.

We are an Australian family who booked our Vietnam Trip through Inter Asia. They employ local Vietnamese guides, and we were very fortunate to have Han as our guide for two days in Saigon. Han impressed us from the minute we met her. She was punctual and in the hotel lobby waiting for us on our first day. She worked out who we were and came straight up with her big friendly smile and shook our hands and knew each of our names. She also took an interest in my two kids (aged 11 and 14), asking them questions about their interests, school and life in Australia - they both instantly loved Han! Han speaks perfect English and has an extensive knowledge of Vietnam’s history and culture which she shared with us throughout a half day city tour of Ho Chi Minh City. The tour included the war remnants museum which can be confronting; however, Han took my son to the less confronting parts of the exhibition while the rest of us were able to explore the museum. She also let the kids know that if they found it upsetting at any point to let her know and we could move onto the next part of our tour. At the end of our tour, Han went the extra mile by recommending places we might like to visit that afternoon/evening and providing us with restaurant recommendations. We tried one of the places she suggested and the food was AMAZING! Our second day with Han was a full day tour of the Mekong Delta region and a visit to a local village. We were on the bus with Han for a total of 3 hours and she was very easy to talk to the whole time and taught us a lot about her country. Our next stop after Saigon was Hoi An and Han told us about the Hoi An Memories Show which she felt was one of Hoi An’s hidden gems. She helped us book tickets for the show and it truly was a hidden gem and such a memorable and beautiful experience. I would highly recommend Han as a tour guide, she was just a joy and set the bar very high for the rest of the guides on our trip!

Han was a terrific guide. Always caring for us, being a little on the older side, and always punctual with our meeting times. Han is extremely knowledgeable and patiently answered all our questions. Han was also very obliging when it came to tweaking our tour at our request. We would have no hesitation in recommending Han to any age groups.

What a fantastic visit my husband and I had in Vietnam with our AMAZING guide Han. She was professional yet extremely fun and personable. My husband was there in 1967 and things have changed drastically which was expected but Han’s knowledge of past and present events really was welcomed. One of our highlights, was our visit to the Henry Cabot Lodge home, where so much history was present as we walked from room to room. Thank you Han for hitting many of the tourist spots and the not so touristy spots as well.

Our guide, Han, was wonderful. Excellent English speaker. She took us to see so many hidden yet important places that give Vietnam its identity as a tough yet enduring, beautiful country. Han made sure we had the most remarkable time.
