"Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you did not do than by the things you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain

Overview
Saigon is a popular shopping destination with numerous things to buy; from silk and antique watches to embroidered clothes and ethnic garments. Your guide will help you distinguish between mass-produced and hand-crafted goods, as well as lead you to the best stores. Start you tour walking from Mac Thi Buoi along Dong Khoi Street where you will discover plenty of souvenirs, clothes and accessories. There is a chance to take a closer look at the City Opera Hall before heading to Eden Mall where a high quality of accessories, galleries and fashion shops can be found. Before lunch in a cozy Vietnamese restaurant, visit the Notre Dame Cathedral and the famous Post Office which are both wonderful examples of French Colonial architecture. In the afternoon, the tour continues with visits to two famous local markets; the Ben Thanh Market, the busiest in the city for over a century and Tan Dinh Market. After a day full of exciting shopping, sightseeing and exploring, an optional foot massage in a spa is the perfect way to finish the day. You will then be transferred back to your hotel.
