Historical tour - We really enjoyed this half-day tour, guided by a knowledgeable local who shared both historical insights and personal stories. Visiting the Jade Pagoda, the War Remnants Museum, the city’s grand Post Office, and the bustling Ben Thanh Market made for a memorable experience. Our guide was warm, engaging, and always willing to help. The half-day format was ideal—it allowed us to explore key highlights while still leaving time in the day to relax or explore further on our own. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Saigon who wants a bit of adventure without committing to a full-day tour.
