Very, very, very disappointing

We made our first trip from the war museum to the Chinatown market. After waiting for more than 50 minutes at a poorly marked stop, in the blazing sun with no seats to sit or hardly any room to stand, we took the bus to the blue sector, only to learn after three stops that we had to get off; it was 2:10 PM... the reason was that they were stopping here and now. $58.72 Canadian for a very short ride, with a few poorly marked stops. Very disappointed with this experience.

Ho Chi Minh City After Dark Is a Different City Entirely

Someone told us not to miss the Hop-On Hop-Off Night Ride departing from Nguyễn Street, and we are so glad they did. The one-hour loop around the illuminated city was one of the most unexpectedly spectacular things we did on the entire trip. Ho Chi Minh City is a reasonably interesting city by day. By night, it transforms. Building after building lit up with dynamic lighting installations — a concentration of it unlike anything I've seen anywhere else — plus elaborate street decorations throughout. We rode the top deck in perfect weather: cool, breezy, and comfortable from start to finish. Don't miss this one. Pass the tip along.

Good way to get an...

Good way to get an overview of HCM and get around across the city, but was a challenge listening to narrative that often wasn’t in step with what we were seeing at that point.

Good overweight

Good overweight in a short time in many languages. The tour takes about 1 h and passes the main sights. We made the rounds once.

Great tour but disappointed with salesperson

Great thing to do. We brought i day premuim. But they lead us to believe we could use it till 9pm at night. At 4.45pm we got on bus to blue section and the lady informed us we couldn't get of at any stop as that was last bus of the day. We get to pham ngu lao. And she tells us to get off bus and there was no more to pick us up. I told her we had night pass and then realised that night pass was for a 45 min tours. Must say the bus driver(BIGGEST THANK YOU) took us back to ho chi
