Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Tao Dan Park, Between Cach Mang Thang Tam Street and Nguyen Thi Minh Khai Street, Ho Chi Minh City 700000 Vietnam
Tao Dan Park is a little green oasis where in every early morning local folks come around for taichi exercise or a few jogging laps. There is a comer with special interest niche which is the bird cafe where (mostly) men come daily to show off their prized birds while having their day break coffee. Let’s get off the beaten track to mingle up among the bird-and-man crowd.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Ho Thi Ky Flower Market, Ho Thi Ky Ward 1, District 10, Ho Chi Minh City 700000 Vietnam
After short walk in the park, get back to course – let’s have a bowl of Pho like the locals do and then go to a food market. Pho unofficially is Vietnamese national dish. Despite its outward simplicity, Pho is underpinned with a complex arrangement of flavors and textures. At the market, we sneak through the buzzing crowd and takes in all the sights and sounds. Enjoys this riot – it happens every day.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: The Secret Weapons Cellar, 287/70 Nguyen Dinh Chieu District 3, Ho Chi Minh City 700000 Vietnam
Last we visit a small house, invisible to any common folks but unexpectedly keeps a secret cellar full of weapons and armaments used by former VC commandos during 1960s. From a number of places like this, VC secret forces launched a series of surprise attacks against US and South Vietnam commanding offices. Hop on the vehicle and drive back to the hotel. End of tour.
