    45 minutes

  • War Remnants Museum

    Formerly known as the Museum of American War Crimes is a poignant display of the futility of war. Some of the black and white photography in the 'Requiem' exhibit is particularly touching and is dedicated to both foreign and Vietnamese journalists and photographers who perished during the conflict.

    1 hour 15 minutes

  • Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral

    (Notes: Maintenance )Notre Dam Cathedral and General Post Office were built around 1877 and 1883 respectively. These two iconic buildings are fine examples of French colonial architecture. Remarkably every stone used in the building of the Notre Dam Cathedral was shipped from France to Vietnam. The Old Post Office is also the country's largest post office,

Fantastic Half day tour

Published on Feb, 2025

Tony, our guide, was excellent. His knowledge was extensive and we learnt so much. The pace was just right, spending enough time at each location to fully appreciate it all. A fantastic morning.

Great overview of the city

Published on Jan, 2025

Hit all the main spots - guide was knowledgeable, interesting, and enthusiastic. There was a lot to fit in so maybe he felt super rushed to get it all in- it did feel a bit rushed.

Amazing Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Amazing tour lead by Tony! Tony arrived on time and provided us with a very interesting and informative tour. It was great having the air conditioning car to transport us around with water to keep us hydrated!! The tour was well presented and arranged by Tony with unusual locations with great “fun facts” We would highly recommend Tony for any visit to Ho Chi Minh !!!

A great in Saigon

Published on Jan, 2025

Tony was excellent. He was well informed, communicated very well and made us much more knowledgeable about Saigon and the history of Viet Nam. We didn’t feel like tourists and thoroughly enjoyed our day.

Informative half day tour about Ho Chi Minh

Published on Jan, 2025

Did a half day trip with Qui who was an excellent English speaking guide who was very knowledgeable in providing the history of Ho chi Minh City, the Vietnam war and other places of interest. It wasn't entirely a walking tour but was accompanied with driver who helped in dropping off at the prominent places of visit in Ho Chi Minh City/ Saigon and picking us up to go to other places. The places visited in the trip were the Independence palace, War Remnants Museum, post office,Jade Pagoda and Saigon Skydeck.
