Meet Vivian,
Saigon Guide

Giang Tran (Vivian)

Guide, Saigon

My journey with Vespa Adventures began in law school, working part-time at a backpacker motel on Saigon’s Bui Vien street. Starting as a guide with limited English skills on Free walking tours, I discovered the world of tourism. After three rounds of interviews, I proudly joined the Vespa Adventures team. Each day brings new experiences, but my joy lies in cherishing each tour moment and the friendships made along the way.

As a Vespa Adventures guide, I introduce travelers to Vietnam’s diverse cuisine. One dish I love sharing is “Bánh Xèo – Vietnamese Pancake.” Beyond its taste, crafting it evokes cherished childhood memories. Sharing this dish with international friends, I emphasize that cuisine is more than just food; it’s experiencing cultural values, traditions, and stories that enrich our lives.

Interacting with travelers from diverse backgrounds has led to meaningful connections with Vietnam’s local culture. Witnessing their joy and the impact of cultural exchange, I realized the beauty of human connection, transcending borders and languages.
