Ho Chi Minh City Tour Full Day From Phuoc An Port

Ho Chi Minh City Tour Full Day From Phuoc An Port is a private car trip for cruise passengers who want to see Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) without the stress of finding their own way there and back.

The drive from Phuoc An Port in Dong Nai to the city center takes about 1.5 to 2 hours each way, and your driver takes you back to the port in time for your ship, so you can enjoy the day at your own pace. 

Vietnam Trust Car Rental provides a private, air-conditioned car, an English-speaking driver, and a flexible schedule you can adjust as you go during your Ho Chi Minh City shore excursion from Phuoc An Port. The driver picks you up at the port and drops you back off at the end of the day, so you don’t have to deal with taxis, directions, or traffic.

Many cruise guests use the day to see Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Central Post Office, Independence Palace, Ben Thanh Market and Vincom Center Dong Khoi.

If you prefer a slower day with some shopping and local food, that works too. Our team will put together a plan that fits what you want to see and how much time you have before the ship leaves.
