Detailed Itinerary
Expand All +Welcome to the metropolis of Vietnam - Ho Chi Minh City - the city that never sleeps! Our guide will meet you at the Tan Son Nhat International Airport and take you to the hotel to check in.
Proceed to Cu Chi Tunnels to relive as well as experience the out of this world sophisticated tunnels of more than 250-kilometer long underground. Originally, the tunnels were used as shelter, communication routes, hospitals as well as storage for weapons and food for Vietnamese soldiers in the Vietnam War. What special about the tunnels is that you have to crawl underground to get from one room to the next!
We head back to the city’s center at noon for lunch.
The afternoon is arranged with a couple of sites for you to get to know the city better by visiting attractions like Saigon Post Office, Notre Dame Cathedral, Opera House, Chinatown Cho Lon, and Reunification Palace, all featured with French colonial architecture.
Say goodbye to the hustle and bustle vibe of Ho Chi Minh City to proceed to the life of the people by the Mekong Delta.
The drive to Mekong Delta takes about 2.5 to 3 hours to reach Ben Tre.
Embark the boat at Phong Nam pier for a cruise on Chet Say River - a part of the Mekong River.
On the cruise with the slow boat, you will get to see with your own eyes the traditional life of the local people as well as experience their skillful handicrafts in making coconut activated charcoal, coconut products and weaving sedge mat.
Pay a visit at a nearby village with a motorized trishaw “xe loi” or on a bicycle to experience life in the rural area surrounded by paddy fields and peaceful landscape.
Enjoy your lunch in the most authentic Vietnamese style at a local house.
Your afternoon continues with a lovely boat ride through the narrow canals and under the line of the palm trees.
Finally, head back to the vibrant life of Ho Chi Minh City.
