My guide Le took me to the Ben Thanh Market for the food tour. He was so smart and professional. I had such a great time
I joined the local tour to these places haha. They seemed normal on the outside, a bit too hectic even, but once I've learned about the local stories from the tour guide, they became so much more special with lots of things to discover about
Ben Thanh market is fun, but should pay attention to scam and pickpockets
