Historic Saigon Half Day Private Tour with Ben Thanh Market

Start at Reunification Palace, the preserved 1960s modernist landmark where much of Vietnam's recent political history played out. From here, your English-speaking guide leads you into the French colonial core of Saigon. Admire the red-brick facade of Notre-Dame Cathedral from outside while restoration continues, then step into the Saigon Central Post Office next door. Drive past the Opera House to City Hall and walk Nguyen Hue Walking Street to The Cafe Apartments at 42 Nguyen Hue, a former residential block now full of small cafes where you can order a Vietnamese coffee. The tour is fully private, so the guide is yours alone and there is time for questions at every stop. It ends at Ben Thanh Market, a maze of stalls selling street food and souvenirs, so bring some cash. Entrance fees, an air-conditioned vehicle and return hotel transfers within Ho Chi Minh City centre are all included. Book this 4-hour tour of classic Saigon today.
