Ho Chi Minh City Tours in December 2025

This was my first visit to Vietnam and my first experience with Explore. Everything Explore offered was just great - excellent pre-travel advice; knowledgeable and friendly in-country guide; great accommodation and food throughout the tour. I have no hesitation at all in recommending Explore to anyone looking for an insightful introduction to countries with which they may be unfamiliar. Looking right now for my next Explore adventure.

Yet another excellent trip with Explore. Each day was a new, diverse cycle ride providing a real insight to Vietnam - off the beaten track. Our guide Bình was so kind, full of knowledge and enthusiasm which he was so willing to share with the group.

Moira and Charlie would like to thank Explore and especially Bac, our tour guide for an amazing food and history tour of Vietnam. This tour has far exceeded our expectations. All of the accommodations were very nice and comfortable, especially the beautiful homestay and the very kind family. The transportation and drivers were excellent. We would especially like to thank Bac for everything he did for us. He is a very professional and knowledgeable tour guide. He went above and beyond the duties and responsibilities of a tour guide to make this trip so special and enjoyable for us. He was always courteous, helpful and friendly. His knowledge, experience and professionalism exceeded any tour guide we have had with any tour company. He was able to answer all questions asked to him and explained in detail so much about Vietnam history, its people, food and culture.

Thank Ms. Mo Le for helping us to had great days in Vietnam. Eveything was run like on the schedule with reasonable time. Vietnamese people were nice to us. The tourist places are famous and quite okay.

I wasn’t planning to write a review, but this Vietnam trip turned out to be one of the most meaningful travel experiences we’ve had. Everything was seamless, hotels, transfers, flights, but the day in Ba Vi was truly the highlight. We spent the morning with Mr. Duoc, a war veteran, who walked us through his tea farm and shared his personal stories from the war. It was moving, humbling, and something we will never forget. Later that day, we had a cooking class with Mrs. Chin in her home. She was so kind and welcoming. It felt less like a tour and more like being invited into someone’s life. Vietnam itself was beautiful, but what made it really unforgettable were the people. We’ll miss Ba Vi the most.

We took a 10 day tour through Vietnam and had an amazing time, We visited Ho Chi Minh, Mekong Delta, Hoi An, Da Nang, Hue, Hanoi, Halong Bay and 01 night on Night train. They booked exquisit hotels and has amazing tour guides that showed us the history and the current way of living in Vietnam, Our travel agent Jennny was always available to us when we had questions. The travel team made our trip unforgettable, I highly recommend booking with them.
