Itinerary

Saigon is a vibrant, loud, and light-hearted city that is even more exciting at night! Come enjoy the dusk rush of Saigon with us from the top deck of our well-known, vivid red double-decker bus. Take in the best people-watching spots in town, the infamous Saigon traffic, and the masses of motorbikes from above.

If people-watching is among your activities, Nguyen Hue is a great place to do so. It is a normal boulevard with lots of traffic during the day, but at night it comes to life with throngs of people wandering along, both locals and visitors. It's the ideal method to get out of the oppressive heat and the dreaded Saigon traffic. Savour the best street performers, musicians, dancers, jugglers, and skateboarders from tip-top perspectives. The locals congregate here to indulge in the speciality street cuisine of Saigon, which includes baked rice paper, bingsu, milk tea and matcha.

Saigon's magnificent Opera House is easily visible just a short distance away. This colourful structure is impressive during the day, but when it's all lit up at night, it's truly amazing.

Turtle Lake is another location that comes alive at night. There is silence in this region during the day. It becomes a centre of social activities at night. The best, unhindered views of hundreds of locals taking in the vibrant environment while savouring delicious street food are available to you. Make sure your camera is ready so you can capture amazing views from our open-top bus. Join us as we explore Saigon after dusk.

Popular attractions include:

  • Ben Thanh Market: A bustling marketplace offering a variety of goods, from local produce to souvenirs.
  • Nguyen Hue Walking Street: A popular pedestrian street that is beautifully lit up at night, with fountains, street performances, and a lively atmosphere.
  • Saigon Opera House: The illuminated façade of this French colonial-style building is stunning at night.
  • Bitexco Financial Tower: Enjoy views of the city from the Saigon Skydeck, offering panoramic views of the city's nightscape.
  • Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica of Saigon and Central Post Office: These historic landmarks are beautifully lit and provide a glimpse of the city's colonial architecture.
  • Bui Vien Street: Known for its vibrant nightlife, this street is filled with bars, restaurants, and entertainment venues.
  • Saigon River: Some night tours might include a visit to the riverfront, where you can enjoy the view of the city lights reflecting on the water.
  • Reunification Palace: The former presidential palace, also beautifully lit at night, offers a striking view.
  • Jade Emperor Pagoda: Though less crowded at night, this temple is a serene spot with beautiful lighting.
  • Ho Chi Minh City Hall: An architectural highlight in the heart of the city, beautifully illuminated at night.
