Ho Chi Minh City tour, known to many as Saigon tour, offers a powerful glimpse into Vietnam’s past and present. Once known for its role in the Vietnam War, the city has since transformed into the cultural and economic heart of the country. Located at the edge of the Mekong River Delta, its riverfront access makes it a key departure point for some of our most popular Vietnam river cruises and an excellent place to visit Vietnam.
On your Ho Chi Minh trip, you'll explore a city where French and Chinese influences are reflected in stunning architecture. Your trip highlights include the Jade Emperor Pagoda, Reunification Palace, the XQ embroidery workshop, the Ben Thanh artisan market, and the impressive Central Post Office.
The city also provides access to the Cu Chi Tunnels—a vast man-made network used during the war for independence. Biking is a fun and active way to explore the region and soak in the local culture.
