Ho Chi Minh Free Tour
Tour Details
We'll meet in front of the statue of Trần Hưng Đạo at the indicated time and start a complete free guided tour that will take us to discover some of the most iconic places of Ho Chi Minh City while learning about the most deeply rooted customs and traditions of the Vietnamese city.
We'll start by strolling along the banks of the Saigon River, specifically along Nguyễn Huệ Street, where we'll cross the oldest market in the city, where you can get some typical Vietnamese dishes to taste.
After this short stop, we'll visit the Ho Chi Minh City Hall, an imposing French colonial-style building. We'll continue strolling to see the Bách Tùng Diệp Park. Did you know that it was once Spanish territory?
The free guided tour will take us to the Independence Palace, the last point in the city to be conquered during the Vietnam War. In this emblematic place, we'll learn some of the most interesting stories of the war.
During the last part of the tour, we'll visit the Notre Dame Cathedral, the post office and the rooftop from where the last helicopter evacuated Saigon on the day the war ended. Finally, we'll reach the Saigon Opera House, where we'll end the free tour after 2.5 to 3 hours of sightseeing.
Groups
This free tour doesn't admit groups of more than 6 people, even if they book the activity separately. If you're part of a larger group, we recommend booking this private tour of Ho Chi Minh.
Important
We won't be able to go inside any monuments that have an entrance fee, so we'll visit the outside of them.
