Ho Chi Minh City

It's Never Quiet Here.

Any Ho Chi Minh City vacation always has the feedback that there's not another place like it here. During your Ho Chi Minh City tours, you can see a chaotic mess of traffic-clogged roads and urban bustle, with nary a green space in sight. But nobody could say they hate it here, Ho Chi Minh City deserves a deep read for your ideal Vietnam tours.

Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) has long been a hotbed of activity, but it only recently become the over crowded powerhouse that it is today. The French made it the capital of colonial indochine, endowing it with wide boulevards and grand architecture. During the American War, the city served as headquarters for US forces and international journalists, many of who were captivated by its exotic nature. Today Ho Chi Minh City is country's largest and most populous city, and it continues to remain on the cusp of all things new and in vogue.

Although the city has been renamed after the national communist hero, it has since come down hard with capitalist fever. Merchants crowd every inch of sidewalk space, business people broker international deals over their cell phones, and sparkling shopping centers cater for a growing number of upwardly mobile Vietnamese. People work around the clock, without breaking at the weekends. Yet despite all the commercial mania, Ho Chi Minh City is also home to magnificent pagodas, lush gardens, and charming cafes. For visitors, these may be a welcome respite from the city's frenetic pulse, which races at the same speed as the thousands of motorbikes zipping down its streets. Given the way his namesake has turned out, Ho Chi Minh is probably rolling over in his tomb. But the locals here aren't fazed - after all, everyone still calls it Saigon anyway.

Ho Chi Minh City, a forward-looking paradise for those life racers, is driving the country's economic boom as well as your fantasy for an ideal Ho Chi Minh City vacation. IOT, your own Ho Chi Minh tour operator, is informing you that it's never quiet here. But once here, you would understand why people of the city couldn't imagine living anywhere else.
