Itinerary
Ho Chi Minh City Tour: Along with its long history, Ho Chi Minh city makes the perfect travel destination for both domestic and international travelers. The city was originally a trading port of the Khmer Empire of Cambodia known as Prey Nokor until its conquest by the Nguyen Dynasty. Ho Chi Minh City was formerly known as Saigon, previously the capital of the South Vietnam and during the French Cochinchina era. Saigon was renamed to honor Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam’s revolutionary leader, after the city’s fall to the People’s Army of Vietnam and the Viet Cong from North Vietnam on the 30th of April in 1975.
