BEST EXPERIENCE

5.00Had the best cruising experience along the saigon river during our trip! The host was highly knowledgeable and he has a very impressive rapport with the tourist. Kudos to that! I highly recommend booking the 5 pm ICT cruise as you will appreciate the city of saigon more at sunset until night. The cruise lasted for about an hour. Worth every penny!
Great guides and views

5.00This was a great experience from beginning to end. Easy to check in, great small group and boat. We saw other boats which were big, bright and loud but ours was small and quiet- no loud music. Host was engaging and informative, and duration was perfect. Some limitation on photo angles if you are a photography buff, but otherwise would absolutely recommend.
