Itinerario
Recogida en frente de la puerta principal de Phu My Port
El Palacio de la Independencia fue la base del general vietnamita Ngo Dinh Diem hasta su muerte en 1963. Se hizo un nombre en la historia mundial en 1975. Un tanque perteneciente al ejército norvietnamita se estrelló a través de su puerta principal, terminando la guerra de Vietnam. Hoy es una visita obligada para los turistas en la ciudad de Ho Chi Minh. El palacio es como una cápsula del tiempo congelada en 1975. Puedes ver dos de los tanques originales utilizados en la captura del palacio estacionado en los terrenos. El Palacio de la Independencia fue el hogar y el lugar de trabajo del gobernador francés de Cochin-China. Cuenta con exuberantes jardines, habitaciones secretas, muebles antiguos y un búnker de comando. Todavía está en uso para albergar ocasiones importantes en Ho Chi Minh, incluidas las cumbres de APEC.
La catedral de Saigon Notre Dame, construida a fines de la década de 1880 por colonos franceses, es una de las pocas fortalezas que quedan del catolicismo en el Vietnam en gran parte budista. Ubicado en la Plaza de París, el nombre de Notre Dame se le dio después de la instalación de la estatua 'Notre Dame pacífica' en 1959. En 1962, el Vaticano confirió el estatus de la Catedral como una basílica y le dio el nombre oficial de Saigon Notre-Dame Basilica Basilica . Con casi 60 metros de altura, las características neorrománicas distintivas de la catedral incluyen la fachada de ladrillo completamente rojo (que se importó de Marsella), vidrieras, dos campanarios que contienen seis campanas de bronce que todavía suenan hasta el día de hoy, y un tranquilo Jardín en medio del centro de la ciudad de Ho Chi Minh Distrito 1.
La Oficina Central de Correos en Ho Chi Minh es un remanente bellamente conservado de la época colonial francesa y quizás la más grande oficina de correos en todo el sudeste asiático. Ubicado al lado de la Catedral de Notre Dame, los dos sitios culturales se pueden visitar juntos y ofrece a los visitantes la oportunidad de imaginar la vida en Vietnam durante los tiempos del Imperio Indochino. El edificio fue diseñado por Alfred Foulhoux y presenta ventanas arqueadas y persianas de madera, tal como lo habría hecho en su apogeo a fines del siglo XIX.
El Museo de los Restos de Guerra en Ciudad Ho Chi Minh se abrió por primera vez al público en 1975. Una vez conocido como el "Museo de Crímenes de Guerra Estadounidenses", es un recordatorio impactante de la larga y brutal Guerra de Vietnam. Se exhiben fotografías gráficas y equipo militar estadounidense. Hay un helicóptero con lanzacohetes, un tanque, un avión de combate, un avión de ataque monoplaza. También puede ver una bomba convencional que pesa 6.800 kg. Las tropas estadounidenses habían usado estas armas contra los vietnamitas entre 1945 y 1975.
Cholon de la ciudad de Ho Chi Minh es el barrio chino más grande de Vietnam con raíces que se remontan a 1778; También es un lugar de gran importancia histórica y cultural. Las minorías chinas se escondieron aquí del Tay Son y posteriormente tuvieron que reconstruir el área dos veces después del ataque, y se estima que hasta un 70% murieron tratando de escapar en botes. Los que sobrevivieron se establecieron y comenzaron a vender una variedad de productos chinos.
Templo de Thien Hau con influencia china Los templos de Ho Chi Minh ofrecen una visión esencial de las creencias y costumbres de los vietnamitas, ¡y este hermoso templo no es la excepción! Este Sitio del Patrimonio Arquitectónico Nacional, además de albergar hermosas piezas de arte y antigüedades, ofrece una visión importante de las religiones populares vietnamitas tanto para locales como para turistas.
El mercado Ben Thanh en el distrito 1 de la ciudad de Ho Chi Minh es un gran lugar para comprar artesanías locales, productos de marca, arte vietnamita y otros recuerdos. Aquí, encontrará puestos de comida dentro del mercado donde podrá probar la cocina vietnamita al estilo de los vendedores ambulantes o simplemente refrescarse con una bebida fría cuando la negociación se vuelve demasiado. El mercado es grande, difícil de navegar a veces y sin duda es mejor evitarlo durante la parte más calurosa del día, pero vale la pena echarle un vistazo. Cuando cae la noche, los restaurantes alrededor del perímetro del mercado abren sus puertas creando una vibrante escena callejera que llena el aire con los aromas de fideos fritos con wok, pescado a la parrilla y carnes. Uno de los hitos más antiguos de Saigón, Ben Thanh, ofrece un gran ambiente absolutamente auténtico vietnamita.

Very good private tour. We saw all the typical sites including the War Rembrants Museum.Palace, Opera House, Post Office and Ben Thanh market. Hillbilly Jack, our guide, was excellent in working with our limitations and modifying the tour as we requested. He is a personable, friendly and knowledgeable young man who gave us a lot of information on his country. He, and our driver, assisted in moving my husband's wheelchair in and out of the immaculate SUV that was our transport. Lunch was included and it was acceptable. We also had the opportunity to stop for Highlands coffee at a local café but we declined due to time constraints. Overall a great tour, I highly recommend the tour and, especially, Hillbilly Jack, our guide.

From start to finish the experience was exceptional. Hillbilly Jack, our tour guide, made sure we knew exactly where to meet him and his driver. We were provided with interesting facts about Vietnam and were free to ask questions etc. We felt safe and comfortable in our taxi, which was spacious and air conditioned. The journey from port to Saigon took approximately 2 hrs but we were entertained all the time by Hillbilly Jack who had acquired his English-American twang from watching movies. Lunch was provided and was fantastic. All in all we couldn't have asked for more and would highly recommend.
