Ho Chi Minh takes on a magical air at nighttime, and there is no better way to experience it than on a nighttime motorbike tour around the city.
Tour Options
During the booking process, you can choose between two different tour options, depending on the places you prefer to visit by motorcycle. In both cases, we'll pick you up at your hotel and the tour will last 2 hours.
Below, you can see a brief description of each tour option:
Ho Chi Minh Top Sites Tour
With this option, your motorcycle tour will take you to discover the most representative icons of Ho Chi Minh City. It's the ideal option for those who visit the city for the first time and want to admire its most emblematic buildings.
We'll pass by the Independence Palace, an imposing building that has been the scene of crucial events for the unification of Vietnam. We'll see the Central Post Office, an architectural jewel of the French colonial era, designed by Gustave Eiffel, which still functions as a post office.
Afterward, we'll drive to the Notre-Dame de Saigon Cathedral. This impressive neo-Romanesque cathedral was built with materials brought directly from France. Nearby, we'll admire the Saigon Opera House, a magnificent theater in French colonial style, known for its elegant facade and for being a center of the performing arts in the city.
We'll continue the tour crossing the pedestrian street Nguyen Hue, a modern and lively artery of the city, flanked by imposing buildings and often hosting events and shows. We'll also pass the Bitexco Financial Tower, an iconic skyscraper with futuristic architecture that dominates the Ho Chi Minh City skyline.
Finally, we'll approach the Ben Thanh Market, one of the oldest and busiest markets in the city. Afterward, we'll return to the starting point.
Ho Chi Minh's Hidden Gems Tour
For the adventurous who want to immerse themselves in local life and discover the less touristy corners of Ho Chi Minh City, commonly known as Saigon, this tour is perfect. We'll experience the most authentic side of the city.
First, we'll stop at the Thích Quảng Đức Monument. This monument pays tribute to the Buddhist monk who reportedly burned himself in 1963 in protest against the persecution of Buddhists, a place of deep historical significance.
Afterward, we'll explore a local market. Here daily life takes center stage, with its colors, aromas, and the hustle and bustle of traders, offering a real immersion into the local culture. From there, we'll also go to a second-hand market, where we'll find all kinds of objects that reflect the traditions of the inhabitants of Ho Chi Minh City.
Throughout the tour, we'll go into small hidden alleys, which allows us to see how the citizens live and the small businesses that flourish away from the big avenues. We'll also admire buildings that have stood the test of time, showing the residential architecture of other eras and the community life that takes place in them.
After getting to know the more traditional architecture, which contrasts with the modernity of other areas, we'll say goodbye at the starting point.
Pickup
This tour includes pickup from the accommodations located in districts 1 and 3 of the city. If your hotel is located in another district, we'll meet you directly at the Saigon Opera House.
