I had a fantastic time on the Half-Day Instagram Cafe Tour in Ho Chi Minh City! The first stop was Cong Cafe, where I had my first coffee since arriving in the city a few days ago—it was absolutely amazing. Next, we visited the stunning Tan Dinh Church. While we couldn’t go inside due to Sunday Mass, the exterior was beautiful and still worth the visit. I will try to visit on another day. Dabao Concept Dong Do was another highlight; the atmosphere was lovely, and the outdoor space was cool and relaxing. There were only two of us on the tour, which made it feel more personal. Our guide, Philip, was wonderful—very knowledgeable, friendly, and happy to answer all our questions. Overall, it was a great experience and perfect for exploring some unique and Instagram-worthy spots in the city. Highly recommended!

The Provincial Table Cooking Class and Market Tour was a wonderful experience! The tour of Ben Thanh Market was informative, offering great insight into local ingredients and Vietnamese culture. The cooking class itself was great—I enjoyed learning how to prepare Vietnamese dishes. The bonus of receiving a recipe book at the end means I can recreate these dishes at home, and I’m excited to try them! The chef and the Provincial Table team were very friendly and welcoming. The other participants on the tour were great company as well. It was nice to see accommodations made for vegetarians, ensuring everyone had a wonderful experience. I recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area. It’s a perfect blend of cultural immersion, hands-on learning, and fun!

You have to go to the ticket booth next to the Opera House to exchange your tickets first, and then take the bus opposite. The double-decker sightseeing bus will pass by the scenic spots with spectacular night views in Ho Chi Minh City. Because you are riding on Christmas Eve, the Red Church has Christmas light decorations, which is very beautiful; It is not recommended to take the ride when it rains. If you want to have a good view, you must go to the upper level. The upper level is not covered. It was raining lightly that day. It was raining during the whole trip to take good photos, but it is still recommended to take the ride on the first night of the trip. Look, the scenery should be better at night than during the day.
