Description:

Combine a wonderful cruise along the Saigon River with a delicious Vietnamese dinner aboard a rustic dragon boat. Watch an entertaining water puppet show, explore the charms of the city on an evening cyclo tour, and absorb scenic views of Ho Chi Minh City after dusk.

After pickup from your hotel, travel to a local theater to see a traditional water puppet show. Puppets seemingly come to life as they perform traditional folklore, legends, and historical tales that cover more than 800 years of history.

Next, depart on a cyclo—a 3-wheeled rickshaw—to the Nha Rong Pier, passing historical buildings such as the Thien Hau Temple and Ho Chi Minh City Museum. Marvel at the intricate architectural designs featuring traditional Oriental and French Colonial influences.

Upon your arrival at the pier, hop aboard the dragon boat and cruise along the charming Saigon River. Along the way, indulge in a sumptuous Vietnamese buffet dinner and enjoy live folk music and native dancing that showcases Vietnam's unique culture and heritage. The boat returns to the pier in the late evening for your return ride to your hotel.
