Evenings in Ho Chi Minh City are all about soaking in its charm, culture, and flavors at a laid-back pace.

Cyclo ride: A unique glimpse into the city

There’s nothing quite like cruising through the streets of Ho Chi Minh in a Cyclo. This three-wheeled bicycle lets you observe the city’s bustling corners, everyday routines, and historic charm—all while taking in the slow, rhythmic pace of local life.

Water puppet show: Stories told in the most creative way

At the Water Puppet Theater, expect a showcase unlike anything else. Puppets dance on water as tales of Vietnam’s rural traditions, folklore, and everyday humor come to life. The music and storytelling offer a unique glimpse into the country’s rich artistic heritage.

Dinner cruise: A feast for the senses

Picture yourself dining on a gently gliding riverboat, the city’s skyline glittering against the night sky. Savor local dishes paired with the soft tunes of folk music as you drift along the Saigon River. It’s more than dinner—it’s an evening of culture and connection.

This thoughtful combination of sights, stories, and tastes offers an authentic way to experience the heart of Ho Chi Minh.
