Description
Dinner on a cruise — especially along the Saigon River — is more than just a meal; it's a journey.
As your seat gently glides along the water, you leave behind the city’s hustle and bustle and experience Saigon from a whole new perspective. The river offers calm, reflection, and beauty — a stark contrast to the energy on land.
Onboard, the chaos fades. The skyline sparkles. And in that moment, Saigon becomes something else entirely: peaceful, poetic, and unforgettable.

Could have been perfect
I had thought the cruise lasted 3 hours. Actually, the first two hours are spent at the dock enjoying a magnificent all-you-can-eat buffet. I highlight the quality of the first one. Rare. However, since drinks are extra, I had to raise my voice significantly to get my change back.

Sai Gon Special Coffee At Landmark 81 & Street Food tour
Our tour guides and the tour were just grea.t.. local, very friendly, personable, open, fun & funny and we
were able to have a lot of fun together. They are very good motorcycle riders. We felt safe with them.
They knew the city very well, we learned a lot about Saigon. The street food was particularly tasty.
That's exactly what we wanted.. to eat like the locals. Seeing the flower market was another highlight.
Thank you Tracy & your team for everything! We are very grateful to have met you three & for these
unforgettable hours. It was lovely to see my family so radiant and happy. We will recommend your tour
to all our friends, dear Tracy! All the best for you!
