Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral - Saigon Notre Dame Cathedral, built in the late 1880s by French colonists, is one of the few remaining strongholds of Catholicism in the largely Buddhist Vietnam. Located in Paris Square, the name Notre Dame was given after the installation of the statue
Peaceful Notre Dame in 1959. In 1962, the Vatican conferred the Cathedral status as a basilica and gave it the official name of Saigon Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica. Measuring almost 60 metres in height, the cathedral’s distinctive neo-Romanesque features include the all-red brick façade (which were imported from Marseille), stained glass windows, two bell towers containing six bronze bells that still ring to this day, and a peaceful garden setting in the middle of downtown Ho Chi Minh City District 1.

What a great day in Saigon - We were more than happy to have Kain as our tour guide for one day in Saigon!
He was really knowledgeable, kind, speaks fluent english and showed us around really interesting spots, also including a great local place for lunch. And on top of that we had the greatest coffee (with egg) you could ever imagine! We highly recommend booking a tour with Kain! You will not regtet it!

Ho Chi Mhin City private day tour - Helen (our guide) could not have been better. We were collected efficiently and prompty at the cruise terminal, having received several informative WhatsApps beforehand, ensuring we found her and the driver among several thousand other travellers. This was a private day tour of Ho Chi Mhin City. We were housed in a beautifully clean, air conditioned, car, with bottled water provided. Helen was only in her mid-twenties, but demonstrated a brilliant command of both the English language and knowledge of her own country and that of global considerations. She was very clear about our activites for the day and always asked if we were happy with her plans. Ho Chi Mihn is a fascinating and vibrant city, so big we barely saw another tourist. We saw history at the fabulous city-centre post office and War Remnants Museum and dizzyingly busy 100-year-old market. We witnessed modern day activity at the Palace being prepared for the 50th anniversary of Reunification, the vibrant culinary scene with its plethora of Coffee Houses and open food markets (so clean). Loved every minute. A special mention must go the the amazing Tang, our driver. A bad crash on the main road from HCM back to the cruise terminal rendered absolute grid-lock. Between Tang and Helen they devised an alternative route, delivering us back to the safety of Anthem of the Seas in plenty of time. They were both absolutely incredible. I could not recommend either of them highly enough.

Excellent guide - Kain was an excellent guide. This was an efficient and effective way to see Ho Chi Minh city. Our guide was prompt and asked if the suggested itinerary met our desires. His English was excellent. Chose and excellent local restaurant for lunch and introduced us to egg coffee and a lemon tea. He included many details that were unique to the city that we wouldn't have discovered on our own.

Bruno is best guide ever! - Bruno was an amazing guide. We gave him a challenge because we didn’t want to do things that most tourists want to do but he rolled with the punches! We had a delicious pho meal and he taught us how to eat it. He founds us a great spa. Plus he was very entertaining and knowledgeable!
