Tip

Know before you go

This full-day sightseeing tour has been specially designed for cruise ship passengers who have a short one-day stay on land in Ho Chi Minh City. This convenient tour allows you to see many of the city's most important and beautiful sites.
Because you arrive by ship, your trip has limited time. Therefore, we would like to show you as much history, culture, and food as possible before you leave.
The tour can be customized according to your interests. Do not waste time hailing taxis or trying to navigate the bus system; enjoy a well-planned sightseeing experience instead.
