Description

See Saigon from a different seat as you ride through historic streets, local neighborhoods, hidden corners, and everyday city life by traditional cyclo.
See Saigon from a different seat and experience the city beyond its most famous landmarks.

Hop on a traditional cyclo and explore Saigon at a slower pace, where busy streets, historic buildings, local markets, old neighborhoods, and everyday life come together. Instead of simply checking landmarks off a list, this experience takes you through different sides of the city while your local guide shares the stories and details that bring each area to life.

Ride through the heart of Saigon and discover the contrast between its modern downtown and older streets. Pass historic buildings, explore local neighborhoods, and see how everyday life continues alongside the city's rapidly changing skyline.

Depending on your selected route, you may discover the character of modern Saigon, explore the temples and markets of Cholon, or uncover stories connected to the city's history. Each route offers a different perspective while keeping the same relaxed cyclo experience at its heart.

Along the way, there will be time to stop, take photos, look around, and hear stories from your guide. The goal is not to see everything, but to experience Saigon through its streets, people, history, and small details.

Choose your route and see Saigon from a different seat.
