Pick up at 8:30 am and the fun scooter excursion Saigon to the most popular attractions in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) begins. Learn the history of every famous place in Saigon from the unique perspective of our guides.
Our pace is always very leisurely, so you will not be rushed. At each stop you can get off the scooter and walk around, so you have plenty of great photo opportunities.
The Sightseeing Tour offers a good mix of famous sights and lesser known markets and attractions. We only do this tour in the morning when the weather is the coolest.
The local markets are also the busiest in the morning. So it's the best time to watch the market.
Some of the places we visit on this tour are the Central Post Office, Notre Dame Cathedral, the Reunification Palace, the Secret CIA Building, Tan Dinh Market, the Thich Quang Duc Memorial, Ho Thi Ky Flower Market, Cholon (Chinatown), The Binh Tay Market, Thien Hau Pagoda etc.
Tour end is at about 12:00 clock
Please note that we do not go to the Reunification Palace on the Scooter Tour Saigon or visit the War Remnants Museum on the sightseeing tour. Both attractions require a lot of time to fully appreciate them. Therefore, we recommend you to visit them alone to make the most of the time you have with us.
