We begin the journey in the heart of the city. These are the places everyone knows – but we will show them in a more local way:

Notre-Dame Cathedral: This red-brick church is over 100 years old, built by the French.

Central Post Office: Right next to the church is this stunning yellow building. Designed by Gustave Eiffel (yes, the Eiffel Tower guy!), it mixes French and Vietnamese styles. Step inside and send a postcard!

Independence Palace (Dinh Độc Lập): Also known as Reunification Palace, this historic building witnessed the end of the Vietnam War in 1975. We’ll stop by to admire its grand architecture and beautiful gardens from the outside.

Saigon Opera House: A mini Paris in Saigon! It looks elegant and romantic, especially at night with the lights on. Your guide will tell you stories about its past and the performances that once filled its halls.

Walking Street (Nguyen Hue): Full of life! Young people come here to dance, sing, take photos and hang out. It’s the place where old meets new, tradition meets technology.

City Hall (People’s Committee Building): A beautiful French colonial-style building that lights up at night. You can’t go inside, but it’s a perfect backdrop for photos, with a lovely fountain and a well-kept garden in front.

Beautiful Café Apartments: One of Saigon’s most Instagrammable spots! This old apartment building has been transformed into a stack of quirky little cafés and boutiques.

Now, it’s time to leave the touristy roads and ride into the real Saigon – the local places that even some locals don’t know well!

Thich Quang Duc Monument: This is a quiet but powerful place. It honours a Buddhist monk who set himself on fire in 1963 to protest against religious injustice.

Ho Thi Ky Flower Market: A burst of colour and fragrance! This is the largest flower market in Saigon, and it feels like a small flower village hidden in the city. Wander among rows of roses, orchids, and lilies. Don’t forget to take photos or grab a mini bouquet to brighten your ride!

Nguyen Thien Thuat Apartments: Old, lived-in, and full of soul. These apartment blocks tell stories of everyday Saigon life.

Cambodian Market (Chợ Campuchia): A hidden gem with a mix of Vietnamese and Cambodian culture. This market offers unique snacks, spices, and sights you won’t find in guidebooks. It’s small but full of character — the perfect place to explore with all your senses.
