Itinerary
Day
1 Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City)
On arrival at the airport, meet your tour representative and enjoy sightseeing
of Saigon and Cholon. Saigon is the largest of Vietnamese cities, and
one will see the hustle and bustle of Vietnamese life everywhere. There
are street markets, pavement cafes and sleek new cafes and pubs. The
city churns and bubbles. Yet within this teeming metropolis are 300
years of timeless traditions and the beauty of an ancient culture. To
the west of the city is district 5, the huge Chinese neighborhood called
Cholon, which means 'Big Market'. Accommodation, 3 nights:
First Class Oscar Hotel
Superior Omni Hotel
Deluxe Sofitel Plaza Hotel
Day
2 Excursion to Cu Chi
Tunnels and Tay Ninh
Cu Chi was an important base during the Vietnam War, because of its
strategic location. The Vietcong built a 140-mile long network of tunnels
connecting command posts, hospitals, shelter and weapon factories. Tay
Ninh serves as the headquarters of one of Vietnam's religions, Caodism.
The Great Temple is one of the most striking structures in all of Asia
and was built between 1933 and 1955. (B)
Day
3 Excursion to My Tho with
boat trip on the Mekong
My Tho is the capital of Tien Giang Province and one of the poorest
cities in the delta. The economy is based on fishing and the cultivation
of rice, coconuts, bananas, mangoes, longans and citrus fruit. Visit
the century old church, the central markets and a well-maintained sanctuary
where the monks provide a home to orphans, disabled and other needy
children. Also see Dragon Island, where the lush, palm fringed shores
of the island are lined with wooden fishing boats. (B)
