Program Description

Discover a different side of Ho Chi Minh City on a tour that uncovers fascinating stories from the colonial era, the Vietnam War and the country's modern history. This unique experience takes you beyond the city's famous landmarks to explore places that shaped Saigon's past.

Your journey begins at the former Customs Department, where you will learn about French colonial rule and the opium trade that influenced the city's development. Along the way, enjoy a taste of bánh mì, one of Vietnam's most iconic street foods.

Continue to the site of a former guillotine execution ground and discover stories from the Vietnam War, including a visit to a former CIA safe house. You will also explore the Weapons Cellar, a secret underground cache used during the Tet Offensive.

The tour continues with a stop at a traditional apartment block, where you can sample fresh sugarcane juice and local snacks. You will also visit Cha Tam Church, a site closely connected with the events leading to the fall of President Ngo Dinh Diem.

Finish your experience in the vibrant Chinatown (Cholon), where temples, traditional customs and bustling streets reveal the rich multicultural heritage of Ho Chi Minh City.
