Xin chào, Melanie! Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We’re delighted to hear that you had a wonderful evening enjoying fine dining while cruising along the Saigon River. There’s something truly special about seeing the city lights from the river while enjoying dinner, and we’re so glad the experience made for a memorable night in Ho Chi Minh City.

Our cruise on the Saigon river
B6070SJdanielc, September 2026
The cruise and dinner was excellent value and very well organised - quite a unique experience Special mention about our guide Joey. I can honestly say Joey is the best guide we ever had on all our travels- my wife and I have travelled extensively Joey was especially so helpful and supportive to my wife Joyce who has problems climbing stairs and getting in and out of vehicles. Joey made sure she was ok each time we had to climb stairs and even carried her handbag and coat - treated her like she would her own grandma . Joey is also very informative and shared a lot of the history of Vietnam- she is an excellent ambassador for Vietnam
Response from the operator · AMD A
Xin chào, Daniel! Thank you once again for sharing another wonderful experience with us! We’re delighted that you and your wife enjoyed the Saigon River Dinner Cruise and found it well organized, excellent value, and such a unique way to experience the city. Your words about Joey are incredibly meaningful to our team. To hear from such experienced travelers that she is the best guide you’ve had on your travels is an extraordinary compliment. We’re especially touched by the care Joey showed Joyce throughout the evening. Making sure she was comfortable when climbing stairs and getting in and out of vehicles, and helping with her belongings, are small gestures that clearly came from genuine care. Your description of Joey treating Joyce as she would her own grandmother is particularly heartwarming. Thank you as well for recognizing Joey’s knowledge and describing her as an excellent ambassador for Vietnam. We’ll make sure she knows just how much her kindness and support meant to both of you. It has been a pleasure having you explore Saigon with Asiana Link Travel, and we hope the memories you and Joyce made here stay with you for many years to come! Asiana Link Team

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
jaymz007, September 2026
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Outstanding Experience – Thank You, MY! We had an absolutely wonderful dinner river cruise in Ho Chi Minh City, and the experience was made truly special by our tour guide, MY. From the moment MY picked us up from our hotel, she was friendly, professional and incredibly caring. She organised everything for us, explained everything clearly, and went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and looked after throughout the entire evening. What really stood out was how much she genuinely cared about us having a great experience. MY was attentive, thoughtful and always checking that everything was okay. She didn’t just feel like a tour guide — she made us feel like valued guests and friends visiting her beautiful city. The dinner cruise itself was fantastic, with beautiful views of Ho Chi Minh City from the river, great food and a wonderful atmosphere. But honestly, MY was the highlight of the evening. If you are considering doing this cruise, I would highly recommend it — and if you are lucky enough to have MY as your guide, you are in excellent hands! Thank you so much, MY, for making our evening so enjoyable and memorable. Your kindness, professionalism and beautiful personality made a big difference. We will remember this experience for a long time. 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — absolutely fantastic!
Response from the operator · AMD A
Xin chào! Thank you so much for taking the time to share such an incredible and heartfelt review! We’re thrilled to hear that your Saigon River Dinner Cruise was an outstanding experience and that My played such a special part in making your evening memorable. Your words about My truly mean a lot to us. From taking care of everything from your hotel pick-up to making sure you were comfortable throughout the evening, it’s wonderful to know that her friendliness, professionalism, attentiveness, and genuine care made you feel more like valued guests and friends than simply travelers on a tour. That personal connection is exactly what we hope our guests can experience when exploring Vietnam with us. We’re equally delighted that you enjoyed the dinner cruise itself — the beautiful city lights from the river, the food, and the atmosphere — and especially happy to hear that My became the highlight of your evening. A “10/10” and such an enthusiastic recommendation are wonderful compliments for both My and our entire team. We’ll make sure your lovely words are shared with her — we’re certain they will make her day! Thank you for trusting Asiana Link Travel with such a memorable evening in Ho Chi Minh City. We hope these wonderful memories stay with you for a long time, and we would be delighted to welcome you back on another experience in Vietnam someday! Asiana Link Team

We’re delighted to hear that you had a lovely evening on the Saigon River Dinner Cruise and that Vy took great care of you throughout the experience.
