What To Expect
Saigon Central Post Office
The Old Post Office is an example of French colonial architecture and is also the country’s largest post office. Nestled in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City, the Central Post Office is a stunning blend of French colonial architecture and vibrant local culture. With its elegant arches, vintage telephone booths, and historic charm, it's not just a place to send postcards—it's a journey through time you won't want to miss.
Notre Dame Cathedral of Saigon
Built between 1877 and 1883, this is one of the finest examples of classic French colonial architecture. You will have the opportunity to admire this church from the outside. Even from the outside, the majestic beauty and peaceful atmosphere of the church provides a perfect location for photography, quiet reflection and a glimpse into the city’s colonial past.

5.00The guide was very nice and had very good knowledge, the driver drove very safely through the always crowded streets. But unfortunately, 8 hours before the start, the news came that I would have to pay an extra 50 € with a German line. But I had already paid an extra fee for it when paying on the Internet, the guide in English would have been cheaper. Now I got a guided tour in English, although I had already paid extra for the German one. Very bad!!

5.00A fabulous snapshot of Ho Chi Min City with Du - a wonderful guide who understood exactly what we needed. We arrived into HCM City at 2.30pm and had to be back at the airport to fly out at 7.30. Du showed us all the main sites - and even took us (upon request) to the best Banh Mi in the city.
Perfect tour

5.00We want to thank a lot Asa and Pie they are perfect on tour. And we filled very safe with theirs Scooter. Really fantastic experience with Pie and Asa. They made us safely with their scooter tour in the city of Ho Chi Minh City. They gave us a lot of information about the central post office, the street of the books, the church, the house with the shelters and shelters for the period of war, in a Chinese temple, but they went to us and we drank a very nice traditional coffee and we ate a very good coconut candy. In the end we went to a local store for dinner in a small strait, a tourist alone will not find it. That’s why we need such guided tours to feel like local. Roulis Dinosaur was with us and gave joy to adults and children, this was our surprise to our guides. Thank you very much. Thanks a lot for everything we send you our love from Greece Athens Pavlos Chrisa and @Roulis_Dinosaur
