      Day 2: Ho Chi Minh City Tour

      With the services of a knowledgeable English-speaking local guide, spend the day touring Ho Chi Minh Cityโ€™s most famous attractions, kicking off with the Reunification Palace, the home and workplace of the President of South Vietnam during the Vietnam War and now a museum and venue for official receptions. You can visit the War Room from where the South Vietnamese forces were controlled, and most poignantly, the room where the North Vietnamese army took official control in 1975. Nearby stands the 19th century Notre Dame Cathedral, a major centre of Catholicism in modern Vietnam and one of the cityโ€™s major landmarks. Next to the cathedral stands the Saigon Central Post Office, a classic French colonial structure with huge ceilings that still functions as a post office today. Finally head to Ben Thanh Market, packed to the rafters with everything from fruits to nuts, tourist kitsch to true bargains - itโ€™s the perfect place to pick up souvenirs for friends and family back home. In the evening take a walking tour of the cityโ€™s popular Pho Tay ("Streets of Foreigners") area where you can sample the unique flavors of south Vietnamese gastronomy including Hu Tieu - pork noodle soup, and Banh Xeo - savory fried pancakes. End the day with a cold beverage watching the world go by from one of the many streetside cafes and bars.

Next visit a coconut processing workshop located along the canal and a family workshop run by women making sleep mats. Thereโ€™ll be the chance to enjoy fruit and tea, and chat with the locals. Leaving the canals behind take a motor cart (xe lรดi) ride on shady roads, passing by rice fields and vegetable plains where farmers tend their crops. Enjoy a home-cooked lunch with a local family in Ben Tre before returning to the waters in a row boat leisurely cruising along palm-fringed creeks. Later return to the pier where a car will be waiting to return you back to Ho Chi Minh City.
