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.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

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.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

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.

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Excellent way to see the sights in a few hours of the City of Saigon. Especially the War Remnants Museum- a must see.

Xin_L, Jan 2025

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.

Response from Host, Jan 2025

Very, very, very disappointing

Real_M, May 2026

We made our first trip from the war museum to the Chinatown market. After waiting for more than 50 minutes at a poorly marked stop, in the blazing sun with no seats to sit or hardly any room to stand, we took the bus to the blue sector, only to learn after three stops that we had to get off; it was 2:10 PM... the reason was that they were stopping here and now. $58.72 Canadian for a very short ride, with a few poorly marked stops. Very disappointed with this experience.

Good overweight

Daniela_M, Apr 2026

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.
