Exceptional and fun Saigon River Dinner Cruise! - Our guide, Joy, from Asiana Travel link, was exceptional! She promptly picked us so in lobby of Caravelle, our hotel, five minutes early and escorted us to the A.C. Van! She was full of knowledge and related to us what we were seeing on streets of Saigon-GCMC as we drove to our cruise ship on Saigon River.
She put us on the ship, ensured we were in good hands, and then said she would be there NLT 9:30 p.m., our pick up time.
At the end of the 3-hour cruise she was there with the same A.C. Van waiting for us. As we drove va k to Caravelle she told us best places to buy souvenirs-China Town- and gave us history of bridges over the Saigon River. She ensured we were in our hotel before her and the driver left. I can’t express enough great things about JOEY! Promote her now!
The dinner cruise was great-great food-great service-great drinks-wonderful sights along the Saigon River and so cool being on open top de k to see everything. Live entertainment last 40 minutes was a trip with a male electronic sound machine and a male and female singers! Exceptional. People weee up at the end, us included, dancing.
Do not miss this wonderful experience! Thank you Viator and JOEY!

Saigon River Dinner Cruise - Overall, the Saigon River Dinner cruise offers a memorable way to spend an evening in Ho Chi Minh City. It is an awesome way to see the city from a unique vantage point.
My table was on the upper deck and provided unobstructed views of the city's skyline.
Service aboard the cruise is attentive without being intrusive. The staff ensured that I felt welcomed and well cared for, contributing significantly to the overall experience.
There were 3 menu options on my cruise, and it catered well for my palate.
The freshness of the food and presentation were amazing.
Live band was great and sang a variety of songs that I knew and fitted in well with the experience.
I had a totally awesome time.

Look no further for a night to remember. - Oh My Goodness. What an amazing night I had for my 3rd wedding anniversary. The staff and company couldn’t have done more from the moment of pick up to drop off. Husband was surprised with a bunch of stunning flowers and we were gifted the most beautiful cake. Was a perfect night we had. I really couldn’t have asked for any more. The views along the river were breathtaking Thank you for making it a night to remember
❤️❤️❤️

This is a recommended cruise. - From the moment I made the online reservation, I received a message from the tour company, including their phone number and other emergency contact information. The shuttle guide also contacted me 5 minutes before arriving at the hotel, so I felt very at ease from the start. All communication was in English. The shuttle bus was clean and the driver was kind. The cruise crew was also nice, and it was great to be able to see the beautiful cityscape of Ho Chi Minh City while feeling the night breeze.
The reason I gave it 4 stars is that the course meal was a little disappointing.

Not sure about this one..... - The cruise itself is very nice with the bright lights of Ho Chi Minh city all around. We arrived quite late after a fairly long hotel transfer and although there was a reasonable choice of food a lot of the choices were already running out. One of our party has gluten intolerance and although I alerted the company about this beforehand, all that was available to her was rice and fruit ( although all she managed was three pieces of watermelon as most of the fruit was already finished) Really not worth the fairly expensive price paid- I think it would have been better to be honest from the start and say that they could not cater for someone with Coeliac Disease.
The guides arranging the hotel transfers were lovely, but there was a lot of waiting around at the end as guests were picked up from different boats.
We had a nice night , but in my opinion this excursion is very overpriced for what it is.

Tacky - Most guests had eaten before boat moved. It did not go far as could always see the same building. Big billboards on river. Music on boat was like being in Vegas. Was not what I expected in Viet Nam
