Are you tired of all the cliché touristic spotlight? Full of tourist, nothing else but the selfie stick and "soulless" luxury shop. Do you want to experience the local life of Saigon in the very specific way: through the viewfinder of the analog camera ? If you say yes, this is the tour that tailor-made for you!
In this experience, you use an TLR analog camera and one roll of 120 film to explore Saigon (you can either use our prepared analog camera or your digital camera as well). With this you will discover:
- THE COFFEE AND STREET FOOD CULTURE OF VIET NAM: Start with an 80-year old coffee shop, where you will sit down and enjoy the coffee like a local.
- THE " ORIGINAL" ANALOG PHOTOGRAPHY: You will know how to use ALL the camera in this world and practice by wind your way through nearby ALLEY street markets and the oldest apartment HIDDEN in town.
- SAIGON LOCAL TOUCH: Save the best for last, we will show you use the camera to "BREAK THE ICE" by being your translator and connection through all local people in the oldest neighborhood in town!
Now, let's get our journey begin, shall we?
