day 1Join trip Saigon and afternoon orientation tour
Welcome to Ho Chi Minh City, still affectionately called Saigon by locals. As Vietnam's largest city and commercial hub, Saigon is a vibrant mix of the old and the new where pagodas and traditional markets sit alongside modern skyscrapers.
For those arriving on time, our tour leader will meet you in the hotel reception at 4:00pm for the welcome meeting, before taking you on a walking tour of Saigon's central highlights. As you stroll the streets, you'll be captivated by the Saigon Opera House, a testament to the city's French colonial past, the elegant Hotel de Ville, the iconic Notre Dame Cathedral, and the General Post Office.
If you'd like a complimentary airport transfer today, please arrive at Tan Son Nhat International Airport (SGN), around 30 to 40 minutes from the hotel. To join the afternoon orientation, walk, make sure to be at the hotel by 3:30pm. If you are arranging your own flights, allow at least 30 minutes to clear customs and immigration. Considering the 30-minute drive to the hotel, the latest recommended flight arrival is 2:00pm.
For early arrivals, Saigon offers endless possibilities to dive straight into its rhythm. Wander through the stately halls of the Presidential Palace, reflect on history at the War Remnants Museum, or simply get lost in the bustling streets, sampling freshly brewed coffee from a sidewalk cafe, savouring the aroma of sizzling street food, and soaking in the sights and sounds that make Saigon a city unlike any other.
