Meet your English-speaking guide and step aboard our modern luxury speedboat. Leave the loud streets behind as we set off on the water.
Cruise smoothly along the Saigon River. Feel the fresh air and watch as the towering city skyline slowly fades into peaceful, green river landscapes.
Step off the boat to explore this unique, mystical temple floating on the river. Learn about its deep spiritual significance, local beliefs, and stunning architecture from your expert guide.
Continue the journey by gliding around the Thanh Da Peninsula, an oasis of lush greenery and quiet riverside life right in the middle of the city.
Sit back in your premium leather seat and enjoy a complimentary cold Saigon Beer or Pepsi as the late afternoon sun sets a golden glow over the water.
Arrive back at the pier refreshed, having experienced a calm and completely different side of Ho Chi Minh City.
Brilliant tour with Danny. Boat ride was the highlight of the trip! Danny was very informative. Kept the kids entertained too. A really great experience.
A very well organised, comfortable, informative and fun experience. Our guide, Mr Chi is a true professional, extremely knowledgable and funny. He speaks from the heart!
The speedboat is a great way to travel, the early morning trip means that you beat the crowds.
My family had a really good experience and we are pleased to have booked this trip instead of others.
Thanks for a great time, Mr Chi 😁
Skip the grueling road traffic and book the speedboat option. The ride up the Saigon River was smooth, breezy, and scenic, keeping us cool with fresh fruit and cold water. By arriving by water, we beat the tour bus crowds. The small group size made the experience incredibly personal, and our guide was fantastic at explaining the deep history. Topped off with a delicious riverside lunch, this was a flawless, premium experience from start to finish!
