A decent beach and...
A decent beach and country side trip from Ho Chi Minh City. Jesus statue hike has great views. Vong Thau city and beach has great views. The guide (Haha) is super friendly, fluent in English and knowledgeable about the place. The beach had great views but not swimming friendly. I was looking to swim on a hot and humid day.

A great day trip to see the monuments and historical buildings of Ho Chi Minh City
A great tour with our tour guide - Julia. thank you Julia for making this tour so memorable. We loved your knowledge of Vietnam’s history and enjoyed the visit to the Independence Palace and the Chinese Pagoda/temple that is more than 250 years old. The post office was amazing too! An awesome day trip! Don’t forget to bring your own water.

Vung Tau Shared Group Tour
We had an excellent time during our trip to Vung Tau.
Firstly, our tour guide Alice was exceptional and her knowledge of Vietnamese history was second to none. We adored the time we had at the beach where we got to swim in the sea and enjoy some local culture.
After this we were taken for some exceptional seafood which was a highlights of an already excellent trip. Following this, we were taken to the White Palace and the Jesus statue, both of which were expertly explained by Alice. One word of warning make sure you wear long trousers for the Jesus statue as due to its religious nature they will not allow you up the mountain if you are wearing too short shorts.
We finished the trip with a short visit to the fisherman’s temple which holds 18 meter whalebones. I would recommend this trip to anyone especially if it is being led by Alice.

Nice short tour of 1 day.
We had a transit time for our next fly and booked the extra 7 hours tour to visit Cu Chi tunnel and a quick tour to see Ho Chi Minh city. Our guide was June, she was very nice and had a great knowledge about the war and the city. We learnt a lot from her and would recommend her service to everybody.
