Airport Pick-up.svg){kind=icon}
Ho Chi MinhTouch down at Tan Son Nhat International Airport and your private driver will take you to your hotel in central District 1. The evening is yours — grab a bowl of pho at a street stall, walk the Nguyen Hue pedestrian boulevard, or find a rooftop bar to watch Saigon unfold below.
Guided Tour
BreakfastHo Chi MinhA full private day through the landmarks of Saigon. Visit the ornate Saigon Cathedral and elegant Central Post Office. Photograph Ho Chi Minh City Hall from Nguyen Hue Boulevard and explore the layered Nguyen Hue Coffee Apartments. End at the Independence Palace — the former seat of South Vietnam's government, preserved exactly as it was in 1975.
Morning flightBreakfastPhu QuocA short domestic flight takes you from Ho Chi Minh City to Phu Quoc Island — 45 minutes and you've traded concrete for coconut palms. Check in to your beach resort and spend the afternoon doing whatever calls to you. In the evening, head to Sunset Town to watch the sun dip into the sea, then explore the market for evening fireworks.
Guided TourBreakfastPhu QuocTake the Hon Thom Cable Car — one of the world's longest non-stop cable car rides over the ocean — to Hon Thom Island. Spend the day at Aquatopia Water Park, explore Exotica Village, relax on the pristine Bai Trao Beach, and snorkel at Namaste Coral Park. A full island adventure day.
Free & easyBreakfastPhu QuocA day that's completely yours — sleep in, take a long swim, rent a motorbike to explore the island's quieter north, or simply plant yourself in a hammock with a coconut shake. We're here if you want suggestions; otherwise, this one's yours.
BreakfastAirport Drop-offA final slow morning on the island — one last swim, a long breakfast, and a deep exhale. Transfer to Phu Quoc International Airport for your direct flight home.
