Insider Tips for Enjoying Daily City Tours in Ho Chi Minh City

The Ideal Time for Daily City Tours in Ho Chi Minh City

Ho Chi Minh City is a wonderful place to visit, but the best time for our Daily City Tours in Ho Chi Minh City is during the dry season, from November to April. Warm, with plenty of sunshine, just perfect for the discovery of all new guidances through the city: this is the way one should enjoy Ho Chi Minh City. You can step in quite easily and avoid peak times and crowds if you prefer; November up to May are the best months, as they have very light populations but very colorful. These local festivals and events are rich sources of culture. Visit at a time other than national holidays or during peak tourist seasons, such as Tet, as the place is crowded with locals and tourists.

What to Bring

For the Daily City Tours in Ho Chi Minh City, preparation is of the essence if one has to be comfortable. One has to be dressed comfortably in lightweight, breathable material, which will help you stay cool in this tropical climate, with a hat to keep the sun off your face and sunglasses. Protect your skin with sunscreen, and don’t forget to bring a camera to take some pictures of these unforgettable moments in this city. Have at least a bit of cash on you as markets and street vendors often won’t be able to accept cards, and for small buys here and there, it’s much easier to pay in local currency. Finally, carry a reusable water bottle to help stay hydrated, especially during hotter months.

Understanding Cultural Etiquette During Daily City Tours in Ho Chi Minh City

Respecting local customs and traditions is essential during your Daily City Tours in Ho Chi Minh City. Dress modestly when visiting religious sites such as temples and pagodas to show respect by covering your shoulders and knees. At many homes and temples, it is common practice to remove your shoes before entering as a sign of respect.

Greet locals with a smile and a slight bow or slight nod although shaking hands is quite common, it is random, or appreciated, in traditional settings small acts that show cultural sensitivity and add to your experience.

Language and Communication

Language should never be a barrier to enjoying your Daily City Tours in Ho Chi Minh City! Even as English is very much spoken in regions tourists are likely to visit, further touches never hurt and help to show respect for the culture. Useful phrases include “Xin chào" (Hello), “Cam on" (Thank you), and “Lam on" (Please). Our guides are always around to help with all translations in the case of any communication gap, which will be able to let you have a seamless experience during the trip.

Safety and Health Precautions

Safety is our first and foremost concern during the Daily City Tours in Ho Chi Minh City. Be careful in the streets, always looking out both ways while crossing and at the pedestrian signal. The less important matters comprise the drinking of much water in this humid environment and protection from the sun by applying proper sunscreen, hats, sunglasses, and more.

Avoid pickpockets in crowded places and keep your things safe by using a crossbody or a money belt. That means that with those precautions in mind, you may fully focus and enjoy your tremendous adventure in the merry city.

  • War Remnants Museum: Formerly known as the Museum of American War Crimes, this is a poignant display of the futility of war. Some of the black and white photography in the ‘Requiem’ exhibit is particularly touching, dedicated to both foreign and Vietnamese journalists and photographers who perished during the conflict. The courtyard outside contains the spoils of war, namely rusting jets, tanks and cannons captured from the American military machine.
  • Notre Dame Cathedral and Old Post Office: Built between 1877 and 1883 this is one of the best examples of classical French colonial architecture. Remarkably every stone used in its creation was shipped from France to Vietnam. Her two 40m towers, topped with iron spires dominate the city’s skyline. The Old Post Office is another example of French colonial architecture and is also the country’s largest post office.
  • Jade Emperor Pagoda: Building in 1909 in honor of the supreme Taoist god, this is one of the most spectacularly atmospheric temples in HCMC, stuffed with statues of phantasmal divinities and grotesque heroes. The pungent smoke of incense fills the air, obscuring the exquisite woodcarvings.
  • Cu Chi Tunnels: Watch a short introductory video showing how they were constructed, then spend the next hour exploring the maze of tunnels. Also, on display are various mantraps, the remains of an American tank and numerous bomb craters made by 500 pound bombs dropped by B52 bombers.

All the arrangement, plans, pick-up & drop-off services, hotels, vehicles, sightseeing tours and guides were spot on and excellent.

I will highly recommend Impress Travel for anyone interested in visiting Vietnam. Very organized and reliable!

I booked with Impress Travel in July. My contact person was Tommy Thang. He is an amazing person. He was very helpful. He changed my program twice for me. Very accommodating!
