Ho Chi Minh City Private Tour
TOUR OVERVIEW
Commonly known as "Saigon", Ho Chi Minh City is the largest city in Vietnam; home to more than 13 million people and 8 million scooters! Although Hanoi in the north is the capital city, Ho Chi Minh City in the south functions as Vietnam's leading economic and financial hub. The city has since risen from the devastation of the war period. We can still see well-preserved colonial buildings and war relics in the city. On the other hand, high rise and modern buildings are making their presence felt. Although the city is chaotic with endless slow-moving traffic, the hustle and bustle of the city do not affect the unique friendliness of the people. An easy greeting of hello in Vietnamese, "Xin Chào", is sufficient to taste the local hospitality. Forget about shopping and must-see attractions for a while. Let me show you the real Saigon.

ITINERARY
  • Meet and greet at the agreed location. The tour guide and driver will welcome you with a sign of your full name.
  • Our first stop is to explore small alleys and local wet markets to experience local life.
  • Drive to Thien Hau pagoda in Chinatown, famous for its architecture.
  • Drive along a canal in District 7 to see the enormous contrast between the local stilt houses and new high-rise buildings. Take a sip of Vietnamese coffee on the “Coffee Ship”.
