Description
Experience Ho Chi Minh City on an open-top bus and enjoy the vibrant Chào Show—a dazzling evening of music, culture, and flavors for an unforgettable taste of Vietnam’s heritage and nightlife.
Discover the dynamic spirit of Saigon – Ho Chi Minh City – with an experience that perfectly blends modern sightseeing and rich Vietnamese culture. This exclusive combo invites you to explore the city in two unforgettable ways: from the panoramic top deck of a vibrant double-decker bus, and from the immersive heart of the acclaimed Chào Show, a celebration of Vietnam’s artistic soul.
Your adventure begins with the freedom to choose your city tour timing: soak in Saigon’s golden hour as the sun sets over colonial facades and bustling boulevards, or witness the city come alive after dark, when neon lights shimmer and the streets pulse with energy. The 1-round hop-on hop-off bus route takes you past iconic landmarks, offering unbeatable photo opportunities and insightful commentary that brings the city’s history and present to life. Along the way, the bus glides without stopping through more than 20 top attractions – from City Hall, Notre Dame Cathedral, and the Central Post Office, to Ba Son Bridge, Bitexco Financial Tower, Bach Dang Pier, and the Majestic Hotel, before ending the ride at the lively Nguyen Hue Walking Street.
The journey continues as you step into the Chào Show, an extraordinary spectacle that fuses music, visual artistry, and culinary delights. More than just a performance, Chào Show is a love letter to Vietnam, proudly showcasing the country’s identity through a breathtaking blend of tradition and innovation. Marvel at the talents of musicians playing 30 distinct traditional instruments – one of the most complete and diverse collections ever assembled on a Vietnamese stage. The centerpiece is "Resplendent Homeland," a 12-part musical suite composed by the renowned Tran Manh Hung, weaving together stories and sounds from across the nation.
The experience is elevated by state-of-the-art Immersive Audio 3D technology and mesmerizing visual projections, transporting you through Vietnam’s stunning landscapes and vibrant communities. To complete your multi-sensory journey, savor nine signature snack dishes representing the flavors of Vietnam’s three regions – a culinary exploration that delights the palate as much as the performance thrills the senses.
This is more than a city tour or a night at the theater – it’s a truly distinctive cultural evening where the excitement of Saigon meets the richness of Vietnamese heritage. Perfect for travelers seeking both adventure and authenticity, this combo promises memories that will linger long after your visit.
Step aboard, be inspired, and experience Saigon in a way you’ll never forget.
