Independence Palace -kierrokset

We visited the Independence Palace and War Remnants Museum with our guide Kevin. Both are fascinating and, in our view, must-sees in Ho Chi Minh City. The Independence Palace offers a fascinating insight into the Vietnam War, with its historic meeting and banquet rooms, communications rooms and underground bunker, as well as great views over the city. The War Remnants Museum, just a short walk away, is extremely powerful and visual, showing the devastating effects of war and the suffering and resistance of the Vietnamese people. Kevin was knowledgeable and flexible, allowing us time for drinks and snacks, which made the tour work very well even with a young child. Highly recommended.

Opas antoi erittäin yksityiskohtaisia ja kärsivällisiä selityksiä, huolehti jokaisesta vieraasta ja oli todella erinomainen. Koko matkaohjelma oli fantastinen.

We had a great time on a tour with Annie and Vy! The bike ride was exciting and enjoyed the entire trip throughout the city and the history of Saigon. Thank you both for being the excellent guides. We highly recommend the tour if you want to soak yourself into the hidden gems of the street life here.

amazing tour with kisstour courtesy of Diny! very knowleadgeable about the place and really lets you know about the places you visit

Yksi parhaista retkistä todella ymmärtämään ja arvostamaan Vietnamia ja sitä, miten siitä on tullut se, mikä se on tänään. Vietnamilla kesti kauan päästä nykyiseen tilaansa, ja tämä retki tarjoaa arvokasta tietoa tuosta matkasta. Sodan jäänteet olivat sydäntäsärkeviä, enkä pystynyt katsomaan kaikkia kuvia loppuun, koska ne olivat uskomattoman raskaita ja sydäntäsärkeviä. Tunteellisesta kokemuksesta huolimatta meillä oli upea aika retken aikana. Muista ottaa mukaan viilentävää suihketta, vettä ja tuuletin, jotta selviät Ho Chi Minhin kuumuudesta! Erityinen kiitos matkaoppaallemme Cytalle, joka teki tästä retkestä entistäkin nautinnollisemman. Hän oli ystävällinen, asiantunteva ja jakoi niin monia tarinoita Vietnamin menneisyydestä, mikä teki kokemuksesta paljon merkityksellisemmän. Arvostamme todella tällaista retkijärjestelyä verrattuna perinteisiin matkatoimistojen retkiin. Se antoi meille mahdollisuuden tutustua omaan tahtiimme samalla kun uppouduimme paikalliseen kulttuuriin ja jokapäiväiseen elämään. Se tuntui kaiken kaikkiaan henkilökohtaisemmalta, aidommalta ja nautinnollisemmalta.

Lang was an excellent tour guide, she knows great places to take you especially if it's your first time in Saigon. Wishing her well.

This was an amazing experience! The tour guide assigned to me, Hana, was very knowledgeable and patient and explained everything and answered my questions so well! She spoke great English so communicating with her was very easy. She also drove her scooter very safely and skillfully. I loved getting to know about Vietnamese history and culture and getting to hear stories about all the places we visited made this experience very enjoyable for me.

Winderful experience . Great planning, knowledgeable guide and transfer quality quite good. only the itinerary could have been better planned since the Notre Dame place was closed for maintenance and we missed out seeing one location

We enjoyed this trip a lot — it was truly amazing 😍✨. Thank you so much, Jack, for your guidance throughout 🙏💕. He gave us great insights about all the places — the Opera House, Post Office, Independence Palace, War Museum, and Ben Thanh Market 🏛️✨. He shared detailed history, even things that wasn’t mentioned at the Independence Palace. Although guides are not allowed inside the War Museum, I’m sure Jack would have shared even more valuable information there too. He also guided us on where to shop and explained the history of Ben Thanh Market 🛍️📖. If we had gone on our own, we wouldn’t have known so much about these places — so thanks to him for making it so informative and interesting 😊. We were actually his first customers, so it felt like a private tour for us 😁✨. It was amazing to have such a personal guide. I would definitely recommend booking this tour, and I hope you get Jack as your guide too 😊. Overall, it was a wonderful journey and a truly memorable experience 💖✨.
