  • Ben Thanh Market

    Ben Thanh Market in Ho Chi Minh City's District 1 is a great place to buy local handicrafts, branded goods, Vietnamese art and other souvenirs. Here, you’ll find eating stalls inside the market where you can get a taste of hawker-style Vietnamese cuisine or simply cool off with a cold drink when the bargaining becomes too much. The market is big, difficult to navigate at times and certainly best avoided during the hottest part of the day but all the same its well worth a look. When night falls, restaurants around the perimeter of the market open their doors creating a vibrant street side scene filling the air with the scents of wok-fried noodles, barbecued fish and meats. One of Saigon’s oldest landmarks, Ben Thanh offers a great atmosphere that is absolutely authentically Vietnamese.

    30 minutes

History worth seeing

Published on Jan, 2025

Ryan was an excellent guide who txt me the day before with instructions of how to exit the Port from our cruiseship & where we would find him .. very informative trip to the tunnels & I even went down them .. not bad for an 80 year old. Lunch in a Michelin star resturant in Saigon was a lovely surprise. I highly recommend this tour

Truly Amazing Excursion thru Ho Chi Minh City and the Cu Chi District

Published on Jan, 2025

This trip was an absolute incredible adventure! We were greeted by our personal guide Vinh Nguyen “Liam” promptly at 8:00 a.m. The transport was an extremely comfortable sightseeing van with excellent views for taking pictures while on the drive. They really took pride in their vehicle, as was evident by the freshly cleaned windows for photography. Liam was a very enthusiastic young man with a great sense of pride, passion, and professionalism for his job. He possessed a great understanding of the history of his country and was so willing to share all the aspects of the country’s culture as we drove to the Cu Chi District. I consider myself a pretty good historian, but I learned so much truth and insight from this gentleman this day! We were never rushed during the tour, and every aspect of life in Vietnam was graciously explained. The Cu Chi tunnels were incredible! The history of why they were located and built in the manner they were was eye-opening! My adrenaline was on high all day! Being able to go to Vietnam and sharing this experience with my family was definitely one of the best experiences in my life! If I get an opportunity to return, I will definitely meet up with Liam again!

Fantastic tour, highly recommend!!

Captain Bruno was an amazing guide! So much enthusiasm & passion for his job. Really appreciated the driver as well given it was such a long day. Both were amazing and really made a difference in our experience in HCM. Despite running late due to our late disembarking Bruno made sure we got to see whatever was on our list!

Private Tour of HCMC the best !

Published on Jan, 2025

Thank you for the most amazing and Informative tour of HCMC ! We visited places we would have missed out on if we were in a larger tour so got to find out all the stories behind the buildings and the history which we loved. LIAM our tour guide was so friendly, patient and knowledgable he told us the info about every site and always made sure we were comfortable aswell as guiding us from the crazy traffic ! Such a great tour guide alongside the best driver too who navigated is expertly through rush hour ! Thank you for all your time and support in giving us the best day in Vietnam LIAM and our driver xx
