THE ANCIENT SPELL

Overview of the motorbike tour before Saigon

When it comes to city tours in Saigon, the only routes are through the center (District 1), the War Remnants Museum (District 3), and Chinatown (districts 5 & 6). Very few people know; however, before Saigon was centralized around District 1 and District 3, there was a prosperous area called Gia Dinh. The Province of Gia Dinh, where the people settled at the beginning of the 17th century, started the history of Southern Vietnam.

City's Codes 2: The Ancient Spell is an immersive tour that takes visitors on a journey through the historic Gia Định area, showcasing its rich cultural and architectural heritage, guaranteeing a unique route that no other motorbike tours in the city offer.

• Visiting Phù Châu Floating Temple (Miếu Nổi Phù Châu): a unique riverside sanctuary accessible only by boat, worshipping the Chinese Mother of Dragon (Long Mẫu).
• Thông Tây Hội communal house: the oldest communal house in Saigon.
• The tomb of Lê Văn Duyệt: the revered Marshal of Saigon, known for his significant contributions to the city's development.
• Learn the city's rich history by interacting with the locals and exploring the hidden secrets through fun activities on the tour.

Our Vespa City Tour Timeline 

You will spend this city tour cruising in style on a vintage Vespa through very local, non-touristy districts in Saigon, learning about the city’s hidden gem and rich history that almost no tourists get to see. 

A little tip to make your trip more enjoyable: Since the tour happens during the day which can be quite hot in Saigon and there’s a temple stop on the route, dress comfortably so you won’t struggle while traveling through the traffic and don’t forget to cover your shoulder.
