Formerly known as Saigon, Ho Chi Minh City is now Vietnam's largest metropolitan.

Looking at the glitz and glamour of shopping malls, craft beer breweries, and contemporary restaurants, it's hard to believe this city is only 300 years old. Fear not, because behind the flashiness, sights of street vendors balancing their produce on their shoulder poles, wet markets strewn across the town, and motorbike taxi drivers sleeping their afternoon away are still reminders that this city is as authentic as a city could be. And you will get to see all of it on this tour.

Join the organized chaos that is Saigon traffic on a vintage cyclo, see the city's colonial heritage through the Notre Dame Cathedral, face the pain at War Remnants Museum, visit the busy but surprisingly poetic Chinatown, and learn about the spiritual life of the city dwellers at Thien Hau Temple. Saigon is so pretty it won't take much for you to be convinced.
