Itineraries

Saigon evening tour (cyclo, puppet show, dinner cruise)

18:00: Pick-up from your hotel to start the tour. Free pick-up is available only at hotels located in downtown District 1. A surcharge of USD 10 per person applies to pick-ups in other areas.

18:30: Enjoy the unique art of a water puppet show, a traditional art form closely connected to the spiritual life of the Vietnamese people for centuries. The performance takes place in a pool of water, with the water's surface serving as the stage. Puppeteers stand behind a screen and control wooden puppets using long bamboo rods and string mechanisms hidden beneath the water. A traditional Vietnamese orchestra provides the accompanying music, while singers from northern Vietnam perform songs that narrate the stories acted out by the puppets. Although the performances are entirely in Vietnamese, the stories often depict rural village life and are easy to follow. Typically lasting around one hour, the show offers a colorful introduction to this ancient Vietnamese tradition.

19:15: Continue by cyclo to the harbor for a dinner cruise. Admire the city lights and panoramic views of Ho Chi Minh City while enjoying a delicious Vietnamese dinner aboard a traditional-style Dragon Boat. The tour ends at approximately 21:30.

The activity lasted only for a few hours, but I had a great, great time. The cyclo ride on the streets of Ho Chi Minh City was fun and thrilling. The puppet show was fully delivered in Vietnamese, but I could still understand the storyline and it's very entertaining. The dinner was delicious and just enough for me, and the cruise at Saigon River was relaxing + amazing.

We booked the Saigon Cultural Evening Tour, Water Puppet Show, Dinner Cruise. We had a great time. We showed up here at 5:30 as instructed. After waiting about 15 minutes they put us in cyclos to the water puppet theater which was a fun ride in itself. Riding in the front of one of these bike through Ho Chi Minh traffic is an experience we will not soon forget. Load of fun. When we arrived at the theater they seated us right away and after about 15 minutes the show started. I think it lasted about 45 minutes. It was very cute and lots of fun with live musicians playing and singing through the show. It was very amusing. After this our guide Van led us to a van parked out front and we headed for the river front in district 4. We were seated in excellent seats by the window on the boat and it was quite an elegant affair with music, dancers, a beautiful water front cruise and a great dinner. There were several courses to the dinner and all were great. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone. It is quite an enjoyable experience.

It was a fun experience and we really enjoyed it a lot. The pick up is very on time and friendly staffs. We have no regret for choosing this. We will choose to purchase this again if we are going back to Vietnam for travel in the future. The food provided was not that bad either and majority is Vietnamese food.
