Guided tour of Ho Chi Minh City

Your tour of Ho Chi Minh starts with a trip to the Reunification Palace, the very spot where the Vietnam War ended on April 30th, 1975, when a tank drove the President's gate.
The local guide will tell you all about this momentous day, leading you to the War Remnants Museum, formerly known as the Museum of American War Crimes.
The museum is filled with displays pointing to the futility of war, and the Requiem Exhibit is dedicated to journalists and photographers killed during the conflict.
Marvel at the ruined jets, tanks, and cannons taken from the Americans in the inner courtyard, where they've been left to rust.
Step further back in the past with a visit to the Notre Dame Cathedral and the Old Post Office, built at the end of the 1800's and both incredible examples of French colonial architecture.
Every stone of the Cathedral was brought to Vietnam from France, and the 40 meter towers crowned with iron spires are an iconic part of the city's skyline.
The Post Office is also a French colonial building, and the country's largest post office!
Your last stop of the ay is the Jade Emperor Pagoda, built in 1909 to the supreme Taoist deity, and one of the most atmospheric temples in the city.
Admire the exquisite woodcarvings, the fantastic statues, and the smell of incense that fills the air.
