Itinerary
07:30 – 08:00 You will be picked up at hotel in District 1 or meeting point and start the tour.
We start the day with visit Reunification Palace which has stayed in the mind of many generations of not only Vietnamese but also foreigners. It is known as the famous historical witness which passed through the two fierce wars against the French and American colonists.
Continue with Notre Dame Cathedral and the historic Central Post Office, the other beautiful structures from the French Colonial times, all of them are the best things to do in Ho Chi Minh City. Unfortunately, the Notre Dame Cathedral have been being restored, so we just visit outside.
The Central Post Office in Ho Chi Minh is a beautifully preserved remnant of French colonial times and perhaps the grandest post office in all of Southeast Asia.
The War Remnants Museum has remained the most visited museum in Ho Chi Minh City for years. With exhibitions and displays focusing on the Vietnam War, one of the most politically influential wars in modern world history, many visitors, especially those from Western countries, have flocked to the museum to learn more about how Vietnam managed to clinch a landslide victory over the US and the aftermath of this war. Then, we have lunch at a local restaurant. Please let us know at the time of booking if you have special food preferences (allergies or vegetarian).
After the lunch break, we continue the city tour by discovering the city's Western side. Ride to Cho Lon (Big Market) and Thien Hau Pagoda which is located in China Town
Built in the early 19th century, Thien Hau pagoda is the most famous sacred place in the middle of prosperous Saigon, Vietnam. This 200-year-old temple is also a peaceful spot to pray for blessings for their families and loved ones.
Continue to Bach Dang harbor. After checking in the waterbus tickets, and stabilizing your seat, the boat will start to depart. During the trip, you will have a unique view of the most typical commercial buildings of the city including the Vinhomes Central Park urban area, the magnificent Landmark 81 tower, the Bitexco Financial Tower, the green peaceful District 2. A lot of stunning moments are waiting for you. Try to discover the soul of this land - Saigon River by water bus, maybe you will realize many miracles, a more accurate view of the land once called Paris of Indochina or the Pearl of the Far East.
