Top Ho Chi Minh City Day Trips

It was a unique experience in an old US army jeep, covering some of Saigon’s main attractions. There’s quite a bit of climbing in and out and the jeep is exposed to the elements but it was interesting and a great introduction to Ho Chi Minh. Our guide Hoa was friendly and knowledgeable.

Our guide was informative but with a great sense of humor. He was very helpful for us older ladies, getting in and out of the boats. My favorite part was riding the wooden "canoes". So much fun! We really made a connection with the other guests on our tour. The snake wine was disgusting but I had to try it! Lunch was delicious!

This tour far exceeded our expectations! There was so much packed into one day. We rode in one bus, three different boats, a bicycle, and a tuktuk! We could not have asked for a better guide than Yen. He is so knowledgeable and kept everyone engaged. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Ho Chi Minh City!

It an experience not to be missed, there is a lot of traveling between locations but well worth it. The knowledge of our guide Mr handsome was outstanding with a little humour add too. Cannot find any fault with this trip 10/ 10. Mr handsome went above and beyond to get us a taxi back to our hotel from the our drop off point for which we are extremely grateful, thank you so much mr handsome and mr D our driver for a really memorable day.

We thoroughly enjoyed our private excursion to the Mekong Delta. Our tour guide, Luan, was excellent. He and our driver picked us up at the cruise port. He has excellent rapport with the people at the various sites we visited, spoke excellent English and imparted lots of interesting facts about his country. He also wanted to learn about our country, so it was a very pleasant day of conversation back and forth. The lunch we were served was outstanding and we had fun visiting islands by boat. I highly recommend this tour.

This was a very interesting day learning about the history of the Vietnam War and the ingenuity of the Vietnamese soldiers. The tunnels were fascinating. A delicious lunch followed then we were onto the Mekong delta to get a taste of the simpler side of Vietnamese life. Overall a very enjoyable day.

Anna was wonderful. We had a great time eating, laughing and talking about some history of Ho Chi Minh. We had some great dishes that we would not have had the opportunity to try if we didn’t do the food tour. Highly recommended doing this while you are here.

Our Motorbike drivers were amazing. My Driver, Ruby, was a delight. She made me (age 77) feel at ease as she maneuvered the streets of the city with bikes, cars, vans, busses, etc going this way and that with ease. She never once made me feel unsafe. The stops that we made as a group were perfect. The Burning Monk monument was something we would have missed on our trip without these guides. Our treats in the market were delicious. Anthony, who was my husband's driver, was a perfect city guide as well as driver. He answered all questions. All of the guides spoke excellent English which made us feel at ease. The traffic in Ho Chi Minh city is truly organized chaos, but even though we were right in the middle of it, our experience was spectacular and truly a highlight of our Southeast Asia trip. Thank you Ruby, Anthony, and our other two drivers for this amazing and fun way to see the city.
