Had a wonderful evening on Elite Cruise Saigon. The cruise was smooth and relaxing, with beautiful city lights and a lovely atmosphere. The staff were welcoming, the food was good, and the live entertainment added a nice touch to the experience. A great way to enjoy Saigon at night.
What an incredible way to explore the Saigon river. It was like boarding a 5 star cruise ship. The service was amazing from start to finish and the range of food on the buffet ensured everyone had something to choose from. the range included seafood as well as local and western dishes. we were taken care of by Elena for the evening and her knowledge, experience and passion for her job excelled in every way.
From the moment we stepped on board until the moment we left, our experience with Elite River Cruise was incredible. Everything felt so well organised and welcoming, making the whole night feel special from the very beginning. The food was amazing with so much variety, there was something for everyone and everything we tried was delicious. While we ate, soft chill music created the perfect atmosphere before heading upstairs where a live band and singers kept the energy going while we enjoyed the beautiful views of Saigon at night. To finish the evening, we were treated to fireworks and dancing which made the whole experience so much fun and full of energy. It truly felt like a night to remember. Definitely worth spending the little extra money for this cruise. If you want to experience the Saigon River in style, we 100% recommend Elite River Cruise.
The Elite of Saigon gave me a very warm welcome, and easy check in. I was female solo traveller and during the check in they offered me a red rose and brought to me seat right in front of the Buffett and stage performance. They present me with complimentary crab and lobster entree, and then offered me a choice of complimentary mocktail, cocktail or ice cream. The Buffett started between 7-7:30, and the boat departed at 7:30 and cruise around the river for 2 hours. After finishing my meal I went to the rooftop deck to look at the sights around the city. I thought I had purchased a sight seeing boat but it turned out to be more entertaining and I really enjoyed it! Because of the New Years time the host presented fireworks right near the city and there were dancers. Everyone really enjoyed themselves, and I think there was a Vietnamese Boy Band on board as well! It was overall worth the money and I highly recommend The Elite of Saigon Cruise if you are in Ho Chi Minh City!
I experienced this tour on January 1st. I was told to come to the port at 6:00 PM, but I think 6:30 PM would be fine. The buffet started at 7:00 PM, and until then, I drank welcome drinks and explored the ship. The buffet is on the first floor. It was completely indoors, so it was comfortable. The lobster and crab were very delicious. The sushi is not satisfying for Japanese people. There was a wide variety of salads. Drinks are extra. The price is high for Vietnam, but I think it would be about the same as a restaurant in Japan. For the first hour, the music was jazz on the first floor, and from the second half until we arrived at the port, there was a lively band on the third floor. There were also dancers. After the buffet ends, you can move to the third floor to watch, so the buffet course that allows you to enjoy both is a great value. The third floor is open, so the wind was very pleasant. Fireworks are usually on weekends, but because it was New Year's, they had fireworks even though it was a Thursday. The toilets are clean, and the staff are very polite. I was satisfied with the tour and would recommend it to others.
Best decision ever to book this trip! We had the option with Lobster and Seafood and it was simply amazing! The food is sensational, incredibly delicious sushi, mega buffet! Great ship and the service was also top notch! We went on Saturday and the party with the subsequent fireworks was simply grandiose! We then treated ourselves to cocktails and the Mojito was really delicious! 1000% recommendation! Experience:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing experience! The waiters and staff were so friendly and welcoming — excellent service from start to finish. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was incredible with great dancing, beautiful views, and stunning fireworks. Highly recommend! 🌟🎆💃
This newest Saigon cruise ship is beautiful, the staff are warm and friendly, and the food is good. The scenery on board is also very nice. Since we ordered light meals, we added lobster and oysters for photos after boarding. There was music, live singing, and a DJ. Most importantly, there were fireworks to enjoy. If you have the chance to visit, remember to experience the warmth of Ho Chi Minh City. It's perfect for Taiwanese hot girls and handsome guys who love taking photos. I originally had videos of the fireworks and singing, but I don't know why I can't upload them.
The day before the cruise, I received a WhatsApp message announcing the meeting point and time, and on the day of, they checked in to confirm I had checked in, which was very reassuring due to their thorough support. Upon arriving at the port, I told the security guard at the gate that I was with Elite Cruise, and he directed me to the staff member, allowing me to easily find the cart that took me to the boat. After checking in in front of the boat, women were given a single rose, and once seated, we were served mocktails (were mocktails only for women too?). About 30 minutes after departure, a live performance began, and after about an hour of enjoyment, a DJ came out, switching to club music. Fireworks went off, and dancers appeared, creating a truly entertaining atmosphere. Although many other cruise ships were out, I believe Elite Cruise was the only one with fireworks (fireworks are only on weekends). Also, the staff serving drinks were constantly attentive, which was excellent. When the boat returned to the port, a violinist was playing as we disembarked, and next to them, staff members were personally handing out bite-sized snacks to each guest. The service was impeccable from start to finish, which truly surprised me. Even attending alone, I had a wonderful time, and I'm glad I chose this cruise.
