Today, visit all the highlights in Ho Chi Minh City such as the Reunification Palace, the palace of the old President in South of Vietnam during the American war; War Remnant Museum, Notre Dame Cathedral, and Old Post Office, the two sites that we can’t ignore when we visit the city. After lunch, travel to district 5 to visit Chinatown and visit the Jade Emperor Temple – one of the oldest temples in the city. Then head back to the center to do shopping at the famous Ben Thanh market, this well-organized market is very popular with tourists, primarily due to its central location.

Back to the hotel for a refresh, you will be picked up by a Vespa driver at about 6 PM and drive to the meeting happy point at Cafes Zoom where you can enjoy a welcome drink and snack. Here, you will be top models when the Vespa Adventure staff takes us many nice photos and send them to us after the tour. Once the sun disappears in the west, start the Vespa tour around the city to see the daily nightlife of locals. Stop at a seafood workshop for our first tasting meal with all picked-up dishes local beer, fruit juice, or cold water. Then, the driver will drive you back to the central district and pass many highlights of the city and meet your tour guide who takes his private Vespa at the Banh Xeo workshop. This is a special street restaurant where we will have a chance to see the local women cooking Banh Xeo which you later try with cold drinks.

Next, the Vespa driver takes you to a hidden Vietnamese-style coffee shop to sip a cup of coffee and enjoy Vietnamese live music as local. There is no micro, no power light, it’s only live songs and candles and people whisper to pick up drinks. You can stay here long as you want or move to the last destination to change the music taste if we are fans of Rock & beer (Optional for a family is an Ice-cream workshop). Next return to the hotel, say goodbye to the Vespa driver, and tour guide, and enjoy a peaceful night.
