I love how this itinerary covers both popular spots and hidden gems! The food recommendations sound amazing, especially the street food tours. Have you tried any unique local experiences beyond the usual attractions? I’d love to know more about those hidden surprises.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I completely agree that discovering hidden gems is the best part of traveling. Personally, I highly recommend taking a sunset boat tour on the Saigon River—it’s peaceful and offers a different perspective of the city. If you have time, exploring the local art scenes in District 2 or 3 can also be a delightful surprise!
