Scoot Through Saigon’s Hidden Neighborhoods
Overview
Private, on the back of a scooter, down alleys no car fits. A wartime bunker beneath a coffee shop, the Burning Monk Memorial, and a bowl of Southern dry noodles. Seen it already? We change the route.
Few cities layer French colonial grandeur, wartime history, and street-level chaos as openly as Saigon, and we built this tour to take you through all of it on the back of a local motorbike.
On this 4-hour private scooter tour, ride to iconic landmarks, descend into a former Viet Cong bunker, wander a flower market, and finish with egg coffee made right in front of you. A full meal, drinks, helmets, and all entry tickets are included.
