DAY 1: Welcome to Saigon! (Flight to be advised / the clients’ own tickets)
On arrival at Tan Son Nhat airport, you are already expected by our driver who will transfer you to the hotel. The first day is free for leisure. Enjoy wandering through the streets and find an inviting restaurant to have lunch. A great and truly adventurous experience in Saigon is getting around on the back of a motorbike. After exploring the city so far, just sit outside a café and relax. Choose one of our recommended restaurants to have dinner or stroll through the city and find one along your way.
(Including: car, toll)
(Excluding: flight tickets, visa to Vietnam, meals, tips)
DAY 2: Saigon - Cu Chi Tunnels - Saigon City Tour
After breakfast, enjoy a 2-hour-drive north west of Saigon to Cu Chi tunnels, through urbanized areas and a typically lush southern Vietnamese countryside. The tunnel complex was dug in 1948 for the guerrillas to hide from French air and ground sweeps. It was also served as communication routes and food and weapon caches as well as hospitals and living quarters for guerrilla fighters throughout the American war. Visit the underground villages to better understand the tunnels’ history, life in the tunnels and the Vietnamese’s resilience during the combats. We return to Saigon for a mouthwatering lunch at a local restaurant.
In the afternoon, visit the Notre Dame Cathedral, a stunningly massive red-brick edifice with twin spires, a clear reminder that French once ruled this city (open only 3-4pm everyday otherwise just outside visit); the Central Post Office influenced by Renaissance architecture; and the former Presidential Palace, headquarters of the Saigon Government during the American war. The evening is free for leisure. Take your time strolling through the streets once again and find a cozy restaurant to have dinner and enjoy watching the busy street life.
