I am making a trip to HCMC on my own and looking at taking 2 tours: Cu Chi Tunnel and Mekong Delta.
A lot of people recommended Sinh Cafe and I also checked out TNK travel recommended in travel books. I'm not sure if it's inflation or high publicity on travel forums but I don't see any tour prices in the range of under USD20 on their websites. Are those group prices perhaps?
I don't think those are group prices. Please also note that they charge depending how far your area of destination is or how long the guided tour will be. I believe that the Cu Chi Tunnel Tour was a half-day tour that included lunch.
I've used Sinh Cafe when I went to HCM and I think they're reliable.
Enjoy!
It is cheaper to book when you are there. There are plenty to choose from and they are all located side by side in the backpackers area. I used Rainbow adventure tours and found them to be good.
There is plenty to do while in HCMC (Saigon). Though the city offers much in the way of entertainment & even some historical sites you should still try to get out of the city limits for a visit to Tay Ninh and the Cao Dai temples. It's a great day trip!
Paper horse and candles are some regular sight for ancestral worship. This is not just unique for Vietnamese with Chinese origin. In fact, it is being practice all over the world by Chinese with Taoism faith.
Newer trend of offering included big car (of superior brand), credit cards, and audio-visual equipments that made of paper.
How practical!!!
There is an endless amount of cyclos, motorbikes and bicycles around the city streets. To cross, just walk very slowly, don't panic and rush across,s and you will find that you can get across safely. It actually does work!
Sometimes you can have this museum to yourself. Ton Duc Thang was Ho Chi Minh's successor as president of Vietnam. He died in office 1980. There are many photos and displays that illustrate his role in the Vietnamese Revolution, including his time spent imprisoned on Con Dao Island.
Not essential viewing but if you need a break from the heat it's only 10,000 dong. Open 8-11 am and 2-6 pm Tuesday to Saturday

Bao silk is on De Tham st. right in the backpackers area. I got measured up for 3 short sleeved shirts at 9.00 p.m. and they were ready at 11.00 next morning. These were hand made button-down collared silk shirts. In May 2007 I paid 10$ per shirt, slightly cheaper than I had paid in Hoi An 2 years before.

Q: Vanilla pods "May I know where I can buy vanilla pods in Ho Chi Minh City?"
A: "I would try Benh Tanh markets: they seem to have just about everything else there. The fresh produce section is at the back."
