Questions & Answers

What are PinGuide guides?

PinGuide guides are hand-picked collections of places worth visiting in Ho Chi Minh City, grouped around a theme, neighborhood or route. Each guide is built by a local curator who has personally visited every spot on it.

Are the Ho Chi Minh City guides free to use?

Yes. Every guide for now is free to browse and follow no account, sign-up or subscription is required.

What kinds of guides can I find?

Guides cover a wide range of themes, including coffee crawls, Vietnamese food trails, cocktail and nightlife routes, vintage shopping, and multi-day itineraries through the city's neighborhoods.

Who creates the guides?

Guides are created by local curators and trusted travel creators who walk, eat and photograph each place before it's published, so every recommendation reflects a real, first-hand experience.

How do I follow a guide?

Open any guide to see its curated stops, then follow it on the interactive map to explore the places in order and navigate between them as you go.

What's the difference between a guide and the map?

The map shows all curated places across Ho Chi Minh City, while a guide is a focused selection built around a specific theme or route — a ready-made plan you can follow instead of browsing everything at once.

Yes. The guides are designed for both first-time visitors and returning travelers, from multi-day itineraries that cover the essentials to niche routes for exploring the city more deeply.

Can I use the guides on my phone?

Yes. The guides are mobile-friendly, so you can open them, view each stop and navigate around Ho Chi Minh City directly from your phone while you explore.

How often are new guides added?

New guides are published regularly as curators create and verify them, so it's worth checking back to discover fresh routes and ideas for exploring the city.

Do the guides include practical details like hours and locations?

Yes. Each place within a guide includes practical details such as its location and specialties, so you can plan your route and know what to expect before you go.
