Highlights

At the Labor Culture House, we will watch Water Puppet Show. It originated in the delta of the Red river in the tenth century. The farmers used natural mediums found in their environment to devise a unique form of entertainment. In the past, the stages for Water puppet shows were ponds and paddy-field after harvesting. We head to Sai Gon River by car and get on the cruise where you can relax and enjoy the beautiful view of the city with twinkling lights. Or, admire the traditional junk boat for 2 hours cruise along Sai Gon River. Then you have dinner with local or western cuisine. The wonderful evening will be completed with a delicious dessert before you get back to your dock. The cruise finishes at 9: 30 PM.

About Ho Chi Minh City

Ho Chi Minh City, still widely called Saigon, is Vietnam's buzzing commercial hub of French colonial landmarks, war history and superb street food.

District 1 holds the main sights within walking distance: the red-brick Notre-Dame Cathedral, the elegant Central Post Office with its vaulted hall, the colonial Opera House and the ornate City Hall. The Independence Palace preserves its rooms as they were at the end of the war, and the War Remnants Museum tells the story of the conflict with sobering directness.

Top-ranked sights in Ho Chi Minh City: Cu Chi Tunnels, Saigon Opera House (Opéra de Saïgon), Saigon Central Post Office.
