Things to do in Independence Palace

As always, Klook made our trip more convenient. When we visited the Independence Palace, the line at the ticket counter was very long. Thankfully, since we booked through Klook, we were able to use the fast lane, and there was a dedicated staff member to assist us with claiming our tickets. The place is huge and perfect for taking photos. It’s well-maintained, and I really appreciate how they have preserved the historical site. Definitely worth visiting!

Great comprehensive tour by Phillip. Really bubbly personality and very knowledgeable of the history of Vietnam. I cried at the War Remnants Museum. Would recommend this tour to visitors of Vietnam. Especially to first timers.

Very fun way to see the whole city in a span of 1 hr. The heavy traffic coupled with the lack of wind breeze made the ride a bit unpleasant so I would bring a fan. Best the take the night bus if you want a visual tour of the city. Probably will be booking a 24 hr pass the next time I visit!

It's a very nice ride in and around major places in district 1 of Saigon. Would recommend it. Also it doesn't have any guide who prefers no noise no explanation during the ride this is the one.

A great experience to learn about history of Vietnam and also about the war.Our tour guide has a lot of knowledge to go through with us with every details..

The guide provided very detailed and patient explanations, looked after every guest, and was truly excellent. The entire itinerary was fantastic.

Great half-day tour in Ho Chi Minh City! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everything was well organized and easy from start to finish. Our guide was friendly, helpful and shared the history in a very interesting way. We visited the main highlights without feeling rushed. Really happy with the service from SST Travel and would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Saigon.

Dan was the best! I don’t usually enjoy history tours because they can be boring, but Dan was so informative and entertaining. I felt like it wasn’t just a history lesson, but also a personal retelling of the impact of time and how everything still affects the current state. Absolute best tour guide around!

One of the best tours to truly understand and appreciate Vietnam and how it has become what it is today. It took a long time for Vietnam to get to where it is now, and this tour provides valuable insight into that journey. The war remnants was heart-wrenching, and I couldn't finish looking through all the photos because they were incredibly heavy and heartbreaking. Despite the emotional experience, we had an amazing time during the tour. Be sure to bring cooling spray, water, and a fan to help you survive the Ho Chi Minh heat! A special thank you to our tour guide Cyta, who made this tour even more enjoyable. she was kind, knowledgeable, and shared so many stories about Vietnam's past, which made the experience much more meaningful. We really appreciate this type of tour arrangement compared to traditional travel agency tours. It allowed us to explore at our own pace while immersing ourselves in the local culture and daily life. It felt more personal, authentic, and enjoyable overall.
