    Angeline_L, Apr 2026
    Good way to get an overview of HCM and get around across the city, but was a challenge listening to narrative that often wasn’t in step with what we were seeing at that point.

    Must Do

    Phil_U, Jul 2025
    Upstairs option but exposed to the changing weather. Air Conditioned inside. Multi language options for commentary. Commentary was quite boring. Not as good as other Cities in the world. It is a must do though.

    Got lost trying to get started.

    JOSEPH_A, Apr 2025
    Good city tour. Was confusing to figure out where to start. Myself and several other people got confused by the viator ticket vs the local company. Luckily the Vietnamese people are very friendly and pointed me in the direction of the starting booth near the opera house. Once there I was able to transfer my ticket to bus tour and catch a bus. I recommend seeing Saigon and China town to cover the most ground.

    Easy find the bus the station. However, the buses of different routes are all of the same color. The blue line should be blue bus.

    Good overweight in a short time in many languages. The tour takes about 1 h and passes the main sights. We made the rounds once.
