Knowledgeable guide and amazing city lights top deck boat views

5.00We competed the dinner cruise with Joey tonight. Joey was very knowledgeable throughout the tour and did a great job with checking in on us throughout. The dinner buffet was delicious and accompanied by cultural performances. We finished off the night by going up to the boat’s top deck where you’ll be amazing by the gorgeous Saigon River and beautifully lit buildings. We received hotel pick up and drop off which topped off the convenience of the tour.

5.00We had an awesome time, was not expecting the boat to be so fancy. The food was great and lots of different options. Could not fault viator on any of our bookings, very well organised.
Wonderful experience, tailor made service and excellent communication.

5.00We booked the dinner cruise quite spontaneously as a surprise for our daughter's birthday. She went with a couple of friends and loved the trip. The team created a wonderful and unforgettable experience for her and her friends. They put so much effort into making this evening special for her with cake, surprises, DJ announcements, and a song to wish her. I am very happy we chose this opportunity, it was the right present from abroad. What I want to mention is the team's great responsiveness and super-friendly communication. Considering that I made the booking from Tanzania for our daughter in Ho-Chi-Minh, the language barrier and time zones weren´t an issue at all. I felt taken care of perfectly. Thank you, Sam! I can only recommend the tour and will do it myself once visiting Ho-Chi-Minh.
Amazing experience
