See the major sights before hitting the main shopping spots on this full-day tour. The city tour drive introduces the major highlights of bustling Ho Chi Minh City. Pass grand old buildings such as the historic Rex Hotel. You'll drive past the Botanical and Zoological Gardens, Notre Dame Cathedral, the French Colonial Post Office and Ho Chi Minh Park. Travel to Saigon to visit Ben Thanh Central Market, which features thousands of products. Then stop for a photo opportunity at historic Reunification Hall, the former presidential palace. Next, you'll head to one of Ho Chi Minh City's busiest streets, Dong Khoi Street. Formerly Rue Catinat of Author Graham Greene's Vietnam, Dong Koi Street is still a fascinating place. Explore the many shops selling porcelain figurines, cinnamon boxes and other souvenirs. You'll have time on your own to shop before driving back to the pier.

Special Notes:

The drive from Phu My to Ho Chi Minh City is approximately one and half hours each way and includes a restroom stop.
