Ho Chi Minh City is the largest city in Vietnam with a population of about eight million people. The hustle and bustle of people rushing about their daily business gives the city a vital and dynamic atmosphere. Ho Chi Minh City is characterised by a vast variety of sights and sounds, from ancient pagodas, mosques and cathedrals to the former Presidential Palace and the War Museum, and from historical Dong Khoi Street (the Rue Catinat from Graham Greene's novel 'The Quiet American') to the busy markets of Ben Thanh and Cholon (Chinatown).

Most of the city life takes place on the streets which are lined with shops, stalls, and vendors, their wares spread out on the footpath, selling everything from soup to sophisticated electronics! French influence is evident in the excellent baguettes and coffee.

Taking one of our Ho Chi Minh tours shows you a different side to the city than what you'll find on most package tours. Discover the real Ho Chi Minh with Ho Chi Minh City Urban Adventures.

I liked that we were a small group with max 12. people and that we left early so there were less tourist at the tunnels. i really liked the tour because our guide told us a lot of things and also answered all the questions not only about the co chi tunnels but also about vietnam in general.
