Ho Chi Minh City: Water Puppet Show and Dinner Cruise

2.Water Puppet Show and Dinner Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 111 reviews · from $68

Pair Vietnam’s playful water puppets with a Saigon River dinner cruise, city lights, live music, guides, and practical evening pickup.

“The guide I think was only starting out, his English wasn't too great so there was a little language barrier/struggle but he did really try. The water puppet show was fantastic to watch! The dinner cruise was a bit of a let down. The food was mediocre/poor, it was buffet style so some of it must have been out the whole day. The ship was pretty pack. The entertainment segment was interesting. Personally I would skip the meal and just choose the show, as the meal was really not worth it.”
